Generators
Reliability – whenever you need it
Eisenbeiss develops highly efficient gear systems for generators that are designed for efficiency, reliability and sustainability and are used worldwide in the power range up to 7 MW.
Up to 99.5% efficiency
The main objective in this field of application is achieving maximum efficiency. That is why plant suppliers have relied on Eisenbeiss products for over 20 years. With more than a thousand gear units in use, Eisenbeiss is the specialist for this sector, both for continuous applications and peak coverage as well as for mobile trailer solutions.
Power Division
Hydropower
Eisenbeiss delivers the right gear system so that the power of the water isn't a load of hot air.
Our gear systems for hydroelectric power stations deliver the highest level of efficiency thanks to optimized gearing and bearings. They also have minimal maintenance requirements thanks to the optional Condition Monitoring Sensors developed by us in-house. This leads to a high return on investment and long-term efficiency.
Eisenbeiss gear systems are well-known for their low noise level which minimizes the impact on people and the natural surroundings. Whether it is for pit turbines or vertical water turbines, Eisenbeiss has the right solution. Our individually adjustable gear concepts, developed specifically for low-pressure turbines, meet all requirements in terms of space, installation environment and optimal gear ratios. We also take into account all the common hydropower malfunction scenarios such as short circuit, power failure and emergency stops. Our patented oil extraction system enables quick oil changes, which minimizes downtime.
Compared to other solutions, Eisenbeiss gear systems ensure higher profits because they deliver the greatest level of efficiency and are known for their operational reliability and low life cycle costs.
Vertical Spur Gear Systems for Kaplan open-flume Turbines
This gear concept is specifically engineered to meet the requirements of vertical water turbines. The hollow-bored turbine shaft allows the rotor blade to be adjusted from above using the gear system.
Spur Gears for PIT Turbines
These gear systems, developed specifically for pit turbines, are characterized by their robust and compact design and are around 99% efficient. The optimized helical gearing and low-friction bearings contribute to this high level of efficiency.
Helical Bevel Gears for open-flume Turbines
In hydroelectric power stations that are housed in listed buildings, existing structures must often be preserved. In such cases, power stations with open-flume turbines benefit from an adaptable gear system design that takes into account where the generator is installed.
Bevel Gear Units for Bulb Turbines
The heart of an Eisenbeiss bevel gear system for bulb turbines is the hard-milled bevel gear which ensures the very highest surface quality and, combined with a housing designed for strength, guarantees low levels of noise and vibration.
