⭐ Belangrijkste kenmerken en technische voordelen

🔬

Integrated Overload Shear Hub

Built-in shear bolt hub on the output protects the entire gear train from catastrophic damage when blades strike immovable objects like buried concrete or steel.

Thermo-Compensating Bearing Spacer

Calibrated aluminium spacer between bearing sets expands proportionally with temperature, maintaining optimal preload from cold start through peak operating temperature.

🚀

CNC-Machined Spiral Bevel Gears

Gears cut from 20CrMnTi alloy on Gleason CNC generators, case-carburized to HRC 58-62 with 1.2 mm case depth for 10+ million cycle fatigue life under rated torque.

💪

96-98% Power Transmission Efficiency

Precision-lapped tooth contact patterns reduce mesh friction losses to under 4%, delivering near-full PTO horsepower to the blade assembly with minimal heat build-up.

Pre-Filled EP90 Gear Lubricant

Ships factory-filled with extreme-pressure SAE 90 gear oil and includes a clear sight glass for instant oil-level verification before each operating session.

QT450-10 Ductile Iron Shell

Nodular graphite iron housing absorbs 40% more impact energy than grey iron, protecting internal components when the mower strikes concealed rocks or fence posts.

📚 Gids voor het kiezen van een versnellingsbak

A well-matched gearbox delivers years of trouble-free service. Follow this guide to confirm the EP-RTS50 is the optimal choice for your needs:

📌 Vermogensclassificatie afstemmen op aftakasvermogen (PTO) van de tractor
The EP-RTS50 is rated at 50 HP. Always select a gearbox rated at or above your tractor’s maximum PTO horsepower. For shock-load applications (mulching, brush clearing), add a 25-30% safety margin: a 60 HP tractor should use a 75+ HP rated gearbox.
📌 Keuze tussen 540 tpm en 1000 tpm aftakas
The EP-RTS50 operates at 540 rpm. Most rotary mowers use 540 RPM PTO. The 1000 RPM standard is for larger implements on high-HP tractors. Never connect a 540 RPM gearbox to a 1000 RPM PTO — the doubled speed will destroy bearings and gears within minutes.
📌 Gietijzeren behuizing versus aluminium behuizing
The EP-RTS50 uses a grey cast iron housing. Cast iron excels in vibration damping, impact resistance, and heat dissipation — ideal for rough, rocky mowing conditions. Aluminium is lighter and more corrosion-resistant, better suited to wet environments and weight-sensitive implements.
📌 Standaardcatalogus versus specificaties op maat
The EP-RTS50 is available as a standard catalog item shipping in 3-5 days. If your application requires a non-standard ratio, shaft type, or mounting configuration, our engineering team offers custom designs with 4-6 week lead times. Minimum order quantities may apply.
📌 Output Shaft Type Compatibility
The EP-RTS50 features Flange mount output. Verify your blade hub or implement rotor accepts this shaft type before ordering. We offer multiple output configurations — spline, taper, keyway, and flange — to match virtually any existing installation.

🛠 Installatie- en configuratiehandleiding

  1. Na de eerste 10 bedrijfsuren alle bevestigingsbouten opnieuw vastdraaien volgens de specificaties en het oliepeil controleren. De eerste olieverversing uitvoeren na 50 bedrijfsuren.
  2. Koppel de aftakas van de tractor los en ondersteun het maaiwerktuig veilig met krikken of blokken voordat u begint met de installatie van de versnellingsbak.
  3. Voor units die meer dan 25 kg wegen, gebruik een kettingtakel, motortakel of een hijsinstallatie met twee personen om de versnellingsbak te positioneren. Probeer nooit zware versnellingsbakken in je eentje te tillen.
  4. Vul de versnellingsbak bij met de aanbevolen versnellingsbakolie (SAE 80W-90 of 85W-140 EP) tot het niveau dat is aangegeven op het kijkglas of de peilstok. Niet te veel bijvullen.
  5. Voordat u op vol vermogen gaat werken, doorloop een geleidelijke inloopperiode: 30 minuten op half gas, vervolgens 30 minuten op driekwart gas, voordat u het volledige aftakastoerental inschakelt.
  6. Controleer met een liniaal of de montageplaat van het werktuig vlak is. Eventuele krommingen van meer dan 0,5 mm moeten worden gecorrigeerd voordat de nieuwe versnellingsbak wordt gemonteerd.
  7. Gebruik Nord-Lock-ringen of schroefdraadborgmiddel op alle bevestigingsbouten om losraken door trillingen tijdens gebruik te voorkomen.

❓ Veelgestelde vragen

❓ What is the recommended oil change schedule?

Drain and replace oil after the first 50 hours of break-in. After that, change oil every 200-300 hours or at least once per season. Always drain warm oil for complete evacuation and inspect the magnetic drain plug for metallic debris.

❓ Do you manufacture custom ratios and shaft types?

Absolutely. We offer custom gear ratios, shaft profiles, and mounting configurations. Minimum order quantities apply for fully custom designs. Lead time is typically 4-6 weeks from order confirmation.

❓ What PTO shaft should I pair with this gearbox?

Use a standard agricultural PTO shaft rated for your tractor HP output with the matching spline profile. We strongly recommend shafts with shear bolt or friction clutch protection to prevent gearbox damage from sudden overloads.

❓ How does your pricing compare to genuine OEM parts?

Our gearboxes use equivalent or superior materials at typically 30-50% less than OEM pricing. Independent testing confirms comparable or better performance and service life. The savings are significant for fleet operators.

❓ What gear oil specification does this gearbox require?

Use SAE 80W-90 or SAE 85W-140 GL-5 extreme-pressure gear oil under normal conditions. For sub-zero climates below -20 °C, a synthetic 75W-90 ensures proper cold-start flow. Always check the sight glass or dipstick before each shift.

⭐ Klantenrecensies en praktijkverslagen

📍 Victoria, Australië

We hebben er zes van deze machines in ons wagenpark geïnstalleerd. Elk exemplaar heeft twee volledige maaiseizoenen lang feilloos gefunctioneerd.

★★★★★

📍 Poltava, Oekraïne

Excellent for paddock clearing. The sealed bearings makes maintenance easy and keeps unplanned downtime to a minimum.

★★★★★

📍 Córdoba, Argentinië

De versnellingsbak blijft merkbaar koeler dan de oude. Het verbeterde koelsysteem en het grotere olievolume maken echt een verschil.

★★★★☆

📍 Bordeaux, France

We hebben dit apparaat direct vergeleken met een concurrerend model. Dit apparaat is stiller, blijft koeler en de olie bleef gedurende meer dan 200 uur schoon.

★★★★☆

📍 Adana, Turkey

First purchase from this manufacturer and I am thoroughly impressed. Build quality, documentation, and support were all top-notch.
