A manufacturer of golf ball washers came to Groschopp for help determining why their current gear motor was failing. After some testing, Groschopp found that the gears were not able to withstand the high torque demands of the machine. Groschopp designed a custom gearbox for the manufacturer with a special gear configuration to solve their problem. The motor needed to run on international power sources, so Groschopp’s interchangeable 50/60Hz AC motor was the perfect solution.
Challenges
- High torque load putting pressure on gears
- International power source (50Hz and 60Hz)
Solution
- Custom gearbox and gear configuration
- Interchangeable 50/60Hz AC motor
