Lightnin 80 Series



Lightnin Series 80 - For Severe Duty Applications



With the development of the 70 Series reducer as the workhorse, to be used for an extensive array of mixing applications, Lightnin continued upon this design with a reducer built with extra shock load protection. For severe applications where high shock loads are imposed upon the reducer, the 80 Series is built to last.

While maintaining all the features of the 70 Series gearboxes, the 80 Series improves upon the shock load handling. As the lower shaft flexes due to bending moment loads, the upper shaft deflects inside the hollow quill shaft, isolating the reducer gearing. Above the reducer, there is a flexible coupling that absorbs the deflection but transmit the torque between quill shaft and upper shaft.

When do you need this added feature - when the process conditions impose severe loads. Applications that dump bags of material onto the impeller, or have a strong side flow impinging directly at the impellers, or require huge chunks to be suspended, or extremely high power per unit volume all benefit from the added protection offered by the 80 Series reducers. Consequently, Lightnin adds an additional year to the mixer warranty.
