I cardani e i giunti GGT per il settore minerario sono progettati per resistere a urti e vibrazioni, sopportare carichi elevati e compensare disallineamenti. La nostra gamma include soluzioni dotate di sistemi di protezione dai sovraccarichi e materiali anticorrosione, ideali per frantoi, nastri trasportatori e macchinari da scavo. La progettazione personalizzata assicura adattabilità a qualsiasi configurazione e riduce i fermi impianto.

Waste treatment

Waste treatment requires reliable transmissions capable of managing variable loads and abrasive conditions. GGT offers universal spindles [universal shafts] and couplings designed for this sector, with reinforced structures and special coatings that resist dust and aggressive substances. Our couplings can integrate torque limiting devices to protect shredders and sorting plants, guaranteeing service continuity and lower maintenance costs.

Power generation

Power generation applications require high-speed couplings capable of transmitting high torques with precision. GGT manufactures special balanced couplings that tolerate angular, radial and axial misalignments. The use of high-performance materials and safe fastening systems guarantees lifetime, vibration reduction and ease of assembly. These solutions are ideal for turbines, generators and other rotating machines.

Cement plants

In cement plants, transmissions must withstand shocks, high temperatures and abrasive dust. GGT heavy couplings and universal spindles [universal shafts] ensure very high torques, tolerate large misalignments and resist wear thanks to heat-treated materials and dynamic balancing. We offer customized solutions for rotary kilns, crushers and mills that reduce downtime and ensure production continuity.

Transport

In the field of industrial and marine transport, transmissions must be safe and flexible. For marine applications we offer special couplings with nitro-oxidation treatment resistant to corrosion and salt spray, capable of reducing vibrations and noise for smoother operation. Dedicated solutions are also available for rail vehicles, pumps and handling systems.

Tunnel Boring Machines (TBM)

Full-face mechanical cutters, also known as TBM (Tunnel Boring Machine) require transmissions that distribute torque across multiple motors and protect the cutting head. GGT supplies safety couplings that, in case of overload, quickly disengage the transmission avoiding damage and allow rapid re-engagement. The robust structure and high torque capacity ensure reliability even in the most demanding uses.

Lifting

For cranes, hoists and other lifting equipment, GGT offers drum couplings that safely connect the gear box [gear reducer] to the winding drum. These couplings compensate for misalignments due to structural bendings and withstand high loads, guaranteeing long lifetime and reducing wear of mechanical components. The integration of simple wear indicators facilitates preventive maintenance.

Sugar refineries

In the sugar and food industries it is essential to use stainless components resistant to corrosion. GGT offers couplings and universal spindles [universal shafts] made of steel certified stainless steel for food use, which operate with even accentuated working angles and ensure hygiene and lifetime. Thanks to the quality of materials and the possibility of customization, these products are ideal for centrifuges, refiners and conveyors in the sugar industry.

Paper mills

Paper mills require transmissions that coordinate numerous roll throughout the production process. GGT universal shafts for the paper sector are sized to optimize bearing life and reduce vibrations, and can be equipped with composite tubes to increase speed and reduce weight. reliability and simplified maintenance improve the efficiency of complex plants such as papermaking facilities.
