Planetary Crystallizer Drive Manufacturer India

Planetary crystallizer drive gearbox for sugar factory massecuite crystallizer

A planetary crystallizer drive turns the stirrer of a massecuite crystallizer in a sugar factory at very low speed and very high torque. Kavitsu Transmissions has made crystallizer gearboxes in Satara, Maharashtra for many years and has a long track record in the Indian sugar industry.

Crystallizers run around the clock through the crushing season. The drive must deliver steady torque at below 1 rpm, take the load of thick C-massecuite, and run without failure for the whole season. Kavitsu’s KT-CH series of planetary crystallizer drives is designed for this duty.
