The Maxxdrive industrial gear unit portfolio, based on the Nord Drivesystems modular system, is used when high output torques and powers are required. It covers all industrial application fields up to 282 kNm, allowing for standardised and tailor-made drive solutions.

The combination of motor, gear unit, coupling and braking system enables a precisely planned complete unit that can be supplied ready-to-install, mounted on a motor swing base or a base frame. As an alternative, the motor attachment can be realised via an IEC/NEMA adapter.

The mechanical and thermal design of all Nord industrial gear units is based on existing operating data of the application and on the ambient conditions at the installation site. This ensures maximum individualisation with the Maxxdrive portfolio, creating drive systems which aim to fulfil the highest demands in terms of reliability and long service life.

In addition, Nord also offers predictive maintenance concepts specially designed for Maxxdrive industrial gear units.
