Kop-Flex Gear Spindles

The LLE and LB designs offer the largest lube capacity of any gear spindle design available in the worldwide market today. This can increase the life of gearing, reduce replacement cost, and minimize unscheduled downtime. This results in cost savings to the mill.

ME and MB design: Incorporates unique features that are not normally offered by others. This includes multiple lubrication ports, rising ring seal design, and many others.

The SF and SL Series are auxiliary spindles for high misalignment applications. They can accommodate 6 degrees static misalignment per flex half.

CGG corrects carburized tooth distortion in the internal and external gear tooth flanks. This provides optimum tooth contact, torque capacity and gear life.
