Certified gearboxes for FPSO project

For a recent FPSO (Floating Production, Storage and Offloading) ship project, Aandrijf Technisch Buro supplied an ATEX-certified gearbox package designed for safe use in offshore environments. FPSOs are floating vessels used in the oil and gas industry to produce and process hydrocarbons before they are unloaded into tankers or pipelines.

Dinamic Oil ‘s planetary gear package includes four hose reel swing drives equipped with a special torque limiter placed between the gearbox and the hydraulic brake. These gearboxes, driven by a hydraulic motor with a separate pinion, operate synchronously in a large gear.

In addition, we delivered for the same vessel:

– A black 4-stage winch drive WD 4804 for a mooring line roller,

– A green 3-stage winch drive WD 1523 for an auxiliary winch,

All gearboxes meet and are certified for ATEX explosion-proof standards, so they can be used safely in oil and gas applications.

When selecting the right coupling, technical expertise is essential. Where a flexible coupling has to absorb vibrations and compensate for misalignment, a gear coupling exceeds in transmitting extremely high torques within a compact design. A disc coupling, on the other hand, is torsionally rigid and without backlash, making it ideal for precision applications such as pumps and compressors. Finding the right balance between performance, reliability and lifecycle requires specialized knowledge.

Driving cranes, moving loads

At Aandrijf Technisch Buro, we recently delivered a series of eight customized bevel-helical gearboxes for use in a bogie drive system of a rail-mounted crane.

From 3d design to customized transmission

For a large industrial hall, Aandrijf Technisch Buro engineered and supplied the complete transmission system for an impressive door weighing approximately 16 tons, measuring over 5 meters in height and nearly 28 meters in width.

Reliable transmissions for the theatre industry

For a project in the theatre industry, we supplied two mechanically coupled bevel helical geared motors (IRK-153 with hollow shaft Ø120mm from I.Mak), which will be used to drive a winch system of a portal bridge.
