Mechanical Power Transmission Products for Sugar Industry

In the Sugar Manufacturing industry, power transmission components must endure extreme shock loads from cane crushing, high-torque low-speed crystallizer drives, and the corrosive, high-humidity environment of juice processing and evaporation. Abrasive silica and bagasse fibres accelerate wear on unprotected drive components, making hardened materials and robustly sealed coupling designs critical.

At Nu-Teck, we provide high-performance Gear, Disc, Tyre, and Jaw Couplings engineered to keep your crushing season running without interruption.
