Speed Reducers

But if one of these existing pre-designed units doesn’t fit what you need, then the Cotta engineering team will create a custom speed reducer solution specifically for your application. Cotta engineers have experience designing specialized speed reducers for numerous requirements with multiple options, including:

• flywheel couplings including over-center clutches, air clutches, drive plates and torsional couplings
• SAE housings from 00 to 5 for minimum installation space, and remote mounting is available
• stress-relieved steel fabrications are used for custom cases, in place of our standard cast iron
• standard keyed stub output shaft with a variety of options for length, style and position
• lube pump and heat exchanger provided, if required
• side-load capabilities are available

Cotta speed reducers require rear supports and are designed to be driven clockwise facing the input shaft. For us to recommend a speed reducer, Cotta will need information such as:

• input speed
• ideal output speed
• flywheel housing size
• flywheel connection requirement
• direction of rotation
• type of driven equipment
