The Van der Graaf Drum Motor is a one component conveyor drive where the motor, gear drive and all moving parts are enclosed inside the drum. The completely enclosed motor and gearbox design creates significant space savings over conventional drives. With the elimination of belts, chains, right-angle gear boxes and coupling, a Van der Graaf Drum Motor reduces energy consumption in some cases by more than 30 percent. This results in lower operating costs, increased productivity and zero downtime compared to conventional exposed conveyor drives.
The Van der Graaf Extreme Duty Drum Motor Series design is entirely sealed from the most challenging work environments and is a reliable, less complex and virtually maintenance-free belt drive solution.
