KUMERA Active Drive™ ensures optimal load distribution on girth gear teeth throughout years of operation without a need for high accuracy alignment. This compact solution utilizes the full load capacity of the valuable girth ring while providing maximum usability and serviceability with minimum space requirements.

Active Drive™2 Kumera Active Drive™

KUMERA Active Drive™ can be equipped with

Flange motors up to IEC size 315 (315 kW) Disk brake Backstop Auxiliary drive

Alignment of the drive unit Conventional girth gear drives have significantly high demands when it comes to alignment accuracy. When KUMERA Active Drive™ is utilized, the only accurate dimensional requirement needed at installation is the tooth backlash. The lateral alignment tolerance is as rough as 3 mm / 100 mm.

Distribution of tooth contact pressureEven if the alignment of the conventional drive is performed as well as possible, the result is commonly an unpredictable contact pressure distribution. Runouts and deformations during operation further decrease the load capacity.

KUMERA Active Drive™ independently optimizes the tooth contact by constantly modifying the alignment of the drive unit. This enables girth gear load ratings that are unreachable for conventional drives.

Common girth gear drive contact pattern problems …

Tooth Backlash adjustmentIn various girth gear applications, the backlash of the drive must be occasionally adjusted. The adjustment in conventional drives is done by moving the drive unit laterally. As the position is changed, a complete realignment is required.

Allowed by the exquisite structure of KUMERA Active Drive™, a user friendly backlash adjustment system is integrated to the drive unit. Adjustment is performed simply by rotating a single adjustment screw. The resulting backlash can be calculated in relation to revolutions of the adjustment screw.

ServiceabilityKUMERA Active Drive™ is exclusively designed for girth gear applications resulting in a compact drive unit structure. Low weight components enable convenient on-site maintenance. Integrated speed reducer in the side of the pinion casing is easily dismountable. If more comprehensive overhaul or replacement is relevant, the whole drive unit can be released from the mounting base only by dismounting two axles and the lubrication tubes.

Both of these operations can be carried out with minimum downtime and naturally without realigning the drive unit.

Selection figure for KUMERA Active Drive™ unit size

Active Drive™ Kumera Active Drive™

The design of KUMERA Active Drive™ has been verified by performing a full-scale loaded test run using a prototype drive unit and a misaligned, wobbling counter gear.

Selection example for total motor power of 700 kW, drum speed of 5 rpm and diameter of 9 meters:Find total motor power (1.) - proceed horizontally to correct drum speed to select drum torque (2.) - proceed vertically to correct drum diameter (3.) – the selection is a single KAD-500 drive unit ( ).Please note that this figure is for preliminary selection only, always contact Kumera before selecting drive unit.

KUMERA Active Drive™ feature

Active Drive tooth load distribution mechanism

Enables full utilization of the valuable girth gear’s load capacity.

Girth gear width can be reduced with up to 30 % or load rating can be increased up to 50 %

Mounting hours can be minimized thanks to low alignment requirements (lateral mounting accuracy 3 mm / 100 mm)

No need to realign drive unit after backlash adjustment

No need to loosen high-torque main fastening bolts to adjust backlash

In multiple-unit drives one unit can be detached from the girth gear for maintenance while others remain in operation

Drive unit can be easily detached from the mounting base for maintenance or replacement

Base steel structures are lighter due to more direct transfer of girth gear tooth loads compared to shaft end mounted pinion

Speed reducer’s weight is minimized, thus enabling convenient maintenance on-site

Benefit compared to conventional girth gear drives
