Robust, tailor-made solutions for industrial handling
In the world of industrial automation, conveyor belts are an essential element in many sectors: from food to packaging, from logistics to automotive. In these systems, the gear motor is the heart of the handling system: it provides the torque needed to move material smoothly, precisely and continuously, even with variable loads or prolonged work cycles. Automec manufactures gearmotors used in conveyor belts in a variety of sectors.
Consistent performance, even under stress
Automec gearmotors are designed to offer maximum reliability even in harsh conditions, where continuous operation and frequent starts are required. The combination of high-quality electric motors and high-efficiency mechanical gearboxes ensures quiet, durable transmissions with stable torque over time.
Depending on the application, you can choose between planetary or worm gearboxes, with reduction ratios optimised for the belt speed.
Customisation and fast delivery
Every conveyor line has different requirements: length, inclination, speed, type of material and operating conditions. For this reason, Automec manufactures gearmotors tailored to the customer’s specifications, while ensuring fast delivery times thanks to a streamlined and flexible production organisation. In fact, we offer an ‘Express production’ service, which means we can produce gearmotors and worm screws in-house within 48 hours. This service has been specifically designed to help customers in emergency situations involving machine downtime or sudden, unplanned needs.
Automec gear motors for conveyor belts are available in 24V or 48V DC versions for light automation applications and motors for industrial use with various customisation options, from shafts to flanges to accessories. It is possible to apply external control devices such as encoders or brakes.
Made in Italy quality and service
All Automec gear motors are designed and assembled in Italy, with quality controls on every component. This craftsmanship combined with technical expertise allows us to offer reliable, durable products that comply with European standards.
Signs of growth in the packaging market.
The new 2023 edition of ‘The Cube’, the econometric model for forecasting the global packaging machinery market developed by the UCIMA – MECS research centre, projects development scenarios up to 2026, with detailed data for 70 countries, 11 technologies and six downstream sectors, revising estimates upwards: +3.8% average annual growth forecast to 2026 for the global packaging technology market (with +4.4% in Asia and +5.3% in Africa).” Source: https://www.ipackima.com/it/news/news-previsioni-cubo.html Good news for the packaging sector, a significant market for the use of conveyor belts: packaging machinery is expected to grow by €10 billion by 2026. In an international context marked by uncertainty, this is certainly a good sign!
