New 400 page Fenner Drive Design Manual is ‘Must Have’ Guide to Power Transmission Products

Available now the 400-page manual is being issued free to customers globally, either direct from Fenner in the UK or via approved distributors worldwide. Anyone who is new to using Fenner products simply needs to register their details on the Fenner website at www.fptgroup.com or contact their local Authorised Distributor for a copy.

The Fenner range of power transmission products provides a complete drive solution from electrical input to the final driven machine. Each component encompasses the usual robust design, rugged construction and quality materials that have provided Fenner products with their deserved reputation for quality and reliability.

New to this years’ product range are: Fenner FM series motors in both Premium and Standard Efficiency, enhanced performance Fenner Plus roller chain and sprockets, the Fenner QD (QuickDrive) Series of Inverters that include: energy saving HVAC inverters (QD:VT) high torque flux vector inverters (QD:CT PLUS) and the QD:IP55 & QD:IP66 water and dust protected inverters for aggressive environments and wash-down applications.

Other innovative new products include a high shock overload resistant, high-reduction cycliodal gearbox range. The Fenner Cyclo is available in foot; flange and face mount configurations, and torque ratings up to 68,000Nm. A re-engineered Fenner Series F gearbox is also available, with up-rated bearings; seals and precision internals that combined deliver a longer service life in harsh conditions and extended torque range coverage.

Also new this year are additions to the Fenner range of maintenance and installation tools, including an essential Laser alignment tool that allows the precise set-up of gearboxes, indirect open drives and many other power transmission components, extending wear-life and improving operational efficiency.

In all, the Fenner Drive Design Manual extends to eight specific sections that all offer comprehensive product lists and specifications. Alongside the product information is detailed technical advice and reference material for the specification, fitting and maintenance of all these products. It is this aspect of the document that sets it apart from a simple catalogue, or a rambling handbook, it delivers the essential knowledge that is required to get-on-with-the job.

Section headings include: • Chain Drives • Friction Belt Drives • Synchronous Belt Drives • Couplings • Shaft Fixings • Motors • Inverters • Gearboxes
