Maximum torque capacity, high alignment flexibility and long-lasting performance for heavy-duty rolling mill applications.

Amerigear® SM Series mill shafts offer reliable performance and high misalignment tolerance in heavily loaded rolling mills.
SM Series mill shafts are specially designed and primarily used in various rolling mill drive systems, ranging from heavy-duty hot reversing roughing mills to high-speed cold rolling mills. The shafts used in these applications are typically limited by the minimum roll diameter and must withstand continuously high loads. Furthermore, they must also accommodate high misalignment angles due to varying material thicknesses, roll sizes, and roll change requirements.
Thanks to its Advanced Gear Design, Ameridrives can optimize mill shafts for specific operating conditions. Heavy-loaded steel rolling mills operating at high angles run with less maintenance, lower costs, increased efficiency, and minimal downtime thanks to this technology.
