A dedicated sales, assembly and after care operation, Reggiana UK, was established in 2001 to market the Italian range of planetary reduction gear units in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Although Reggiana Riduttori had been serving the UK market for more than twenty years, customers old and new have benefited from this partnership which has brought a wealth of market experience to support this already successful product range. Reggiana's range of linear, right angled, foot and shaft-mounted reduction gearboxes, wheel, track and slew drives offers significantly increased output torque over the previous series and competitive planetary products of the same frame size, whilst maintaining the same dimensions, and is completely interchangeable with comparable models. Typical applications extend from wind generators and tyre shredders in the energy and environmental sectors, through winches and cable laying in the marine/offshore market, the processing, material handling and machine tools industries, to mining and quarrying machinery and mobile plant.
