Brother Gearmotors: Gear motors and reducers

Brother Gearmotors, offering a wide range of ultra-reliable, sub-fractional AC gearmotors and reducers for the food and beverage, packaging and material handling industries, is touting the opening of its U.S. assembly facility in Bartlett, TN, which will house on-site assembly of over 27,000 unique SKUs and serve as a maintenance and repair hub for the Gearmotor division.

This large product variety allows Brother Gearmotors to meet customer needs with a 3- to 5-day delivery, as well as provide emergency overnight delivery when necessary. Brother Gearmotors is one of the world’s largest fine-pitch gear manufacturers and meets industry demand for smaller, lighter, reliable and energy-efficient power transmission components.

At the Bartlett facility, on-site technology also makes available a more comprehensive product mix to North American customers, including 16 different gear ratios and six voltage options. In addition, Brother Gearmotors’ expanded range of bore sizes open up a broader potential customer base for the company’s gearmotors.

Key attributes of gearmotors from Brother include:

  • Light, reliable and compact in size
  • High torque at low speed
  • Sealed for life for maximum efficiency and reduced labor
  • Standard high-grade grease for lifetime lubrication and reduced maintenance/downtime
  • High-quality, durable, e-coat paint to withstand the toughest environments
  • More efficient than worm gearboxes as a result of hardened hypoid gearing
