Slewing Drive

Slewing drives and slewing bearings are designed to handle the heavy tilting, radial, and axial loads required by some industrial applications.

Slewing bearings and drives are low profile to provide a high rotational capacity relative to size.  Slewing technology is utilized across various industries ranging from heavy-duty construction to robotics and automation where the smooth rotation of heavy loads is critical.

Smooth Rotating Performance

Joylax’s slewing drive technology provides a large ratio in a single gearing stage.  The slewing drives are assembled into a low profile, self-retaining, and ready-to-install housing, optimized for weight and performance.  Our highly adaptable slew gearing features strong shock resistance, long life performance, and smooth rotation.

For applications driven by an electric motor, Joylax offers a double reduction slewing drive to provide a clean, efficient solution.

FAQs 

1.What industries use slewing drives?

    Slewing drives are used in industries such as construction , marine, solar energy, and aerial work platforms.  

2. What makes slewing drives ideal for cranes and excavators?

    Their high torque, load-bearing capacity , and precise control make them perfect for heavy-duty equipment that requires stable rotation.     

3.  How does the self-locking function benefit slewing drives? 

    The self - locking feature prevents reverse rotation when the drive stops, providing extra safety for lifting and positioning equipment.        

4.  Can slewing drives be customized?

    Yes, various kind of slewing drives can be customized for specific applications, with adjustable accuracy and clearance setting.            

5. What is the maximum rotation speed of slewing drives?

    Slewing drives are designed for low - speed, high - torque rotation, typically operating at speeds less than 1 RPM.
