Mining parts

1570W and 8050 planetary swing upgrade system

Designed for the severe duty that is demanded for mining materials in harsh climates

P&H planetary transmissions are designed for the severe duty that is demanded for mining materials in harsh climates. These units provide longer periods between rebuild than parallel shaft or split power swing gearboxes. The P&H transmission is significantly larger and more robust than off-the-shelf planetary transmissions but is comparatively more compact than the parallel shaft swing gearboxes. Replacing parallel shaft swing gearboxes with planetary transmissions eliminates the need for swing timing. The replacement will also provide added deck space around the swing units for inspection and maintenance access.

Other features and advantages:

  • Field demonstrated long life, in excess of 70,000 hours before rebuild is required
  • Easily removed as a unit, enabling rebuilds in a shop environment
  • Improved swing shaft and lower bearing proving better pinion to rack alignment over parallel shaft or split power swing gearboxes
  • Available option for RTD monitoring of bearing and oil temperatures
  • Optional disc brake available
