C SERIES – COAXIAL MODULAR GEARMOTORS
Coaxial modular gearmotors: C Series | FP Trasmissioni
Introduction to the C Series: the timeless classic
The Bonfiglioli C Series represents the essence of the helical coaxial gearmotor. Designed to offer consistent performance across a wide variety of production contexts, this series is distinguished by a perfect balance between transmissible torque, energy efficiency, and footprint.
Choosing this serie means focusing on a successful solution that has shaped the history of industrial mechanics. Its coaxial configuration allows for straight-line transmission, ideal for machinery where alignment between the motor and the load must be simple and robust.
Thanks to continuous technological evolution, the C Series remains the number 1 choice for thousands of companies seeking a component capable of 24/7 operation with maintenance reduced to a minimum.
Valuable technical features of the C Series range
The value of the C Series lies in its precision engineering. The helical gears are designed to maximize the contact surface, ensuring a smooth power flow and exceptional resistance to wear.
The range is extremely extensive, with numerous frame sizes covering every torque and reduction ratio requirement, from light to the most demanding applications.
Here are the main technical details:
Helical Gears: Case-hardened and ground teeth to minimize noise and increase durability.
Output Modularity: Available with feet, flange, or in a combined version for maximum mounting freedom.
Rigid Housing: Cast iron or aluminum structure (for small sizes) designed to withstand high radial loads.
Wide Range of Ratios: Solutions with 2, 3, or more stages to achieve highly precise output speeds.
Effectiveness in line transmissions
The use of this serie is particularly effective in transport systems, the food industry, and water treatment. The linearity of the transmission simplifies the machine architecture, reducing stresses on the connected shafts.
The C Series is also a successful choice due to its thermal efficiency. The quality of internal components reduces heat generation, allowing the gearbox to operate with very high mechanical efficiency, close to the theoretical maximum.
Focusing on the C Series means choosing a product that guarantees impeccable operational continuity, protecting the initial investment through an extremely long service life.
Modular design for every installation
The design of the C Series is at the heart of its popularity. The ability to configure the gearbox with different motor interfaces (IEC, NEMA, or servomotors) makes it an indispensable asset for machine builders.
FP Trasmissioni offers support to customize the C Series with various sealing options, specific lubricants for the food industry, or anti-corrosion treatments for harsh environments.
Advantages of the C Series design include:
Ease of Replacement: Standardized dimensions allowing for quick and secure replacement.
High Load Capacity: Bearings dimensioned to withstand strong radial and axial thrusts.
Mounting Versatility: Mounting feet or output flanges for perfect integration into the machine frame.
Industrial applications of the C Series
The C Series is considered the number 1 solution in almost every manufacturing sector. Its reliability makes it suitable for highly diversified tasks.
Main applications include:
Conveyor Belts: For the constant movement of products in production lines.
Pumps and Fans: Where linear and reliable power transmission is required.
Packaging Systems: For precise and repetitive drives.
Industrial Mixers: Thanks to the robustness of the output shaft and bearings.
The adoption of this valuable technology ensures smooth operation, reducing vibrations and improving the overall quality of the production process.
Technical support and 3D visual consultancy
As with all our lines, 3D model visualization of the C Series is available on the website. It is fundamental to remember that these images are provided as illustrative examples to allow you to understand the shape and architecture of the coaxial gearmotor.
For engineering design and mechanical integration phases, 3D models should not be used as certified dimensional references. Our technical office is at your complete disposal to provide official CAD drawings and verified dimensional data sheets.
The FP Trasmissioni team will assist you in calculating the required torque and choosing the ideal configuration. Choosing the C Series with our consultancy is the key to a successful transmission.
