With over 50 years of experience, TYGear is globally recognized for its dedication to quality, precision engineering, and customer-focused solutions. Serving industries such as plastics, steel, mining, paper, and energy, TYGear delivers gearbox systems and components tailored to meet the most demanding requirements.
The Importance of Industrial Gearboxes and Power Transmission Components
and ?power transmission components are essential for converting mechanical power into controlled motion in industrial machinery. These components regulate speed, torque, and direction, allowing machines to perform with efficiency and precision.
Plastic & Rubber Industry
Extruders, injection molding machines, calenders, and mixers in the plastic and rubber industries demand precise speed control and high torque transmission. Gearboxes must operate continuously at high speeds while minimizing thermal buildup and mechanical wear. TYGear gearboxes are engineered to deliver efficient energy transfer, stable performance, and consistent material output.
Steel Industry
Heavy-duty gearboxes regulate rolling mills, forming machines, and shears used in steel production. These gearboxes must perform under intense pressure, heavy loads, and fluctuating torque conditions. TYGear provides robust gearboxes with reinforced housings and gears designed for heavy-duty environments.
Cement & Mining Industry
Cement crushers, ball mills, conveyors, and other mining equipment rely on powerful gearboxes to function in rugged and often hazardous conditions. These applications involve intense vibrations, dust exposure, and shock loads. TYGear designs sealed and reinforced gearboxes with long-term durability and minimal maintenance needs.
Energy Industry
Gearboxes in this sector are essential for both traditional and renewable energy systems, including turbines, pumps, and compressors. They must deliver reliable speed control and maintain high operational efficiency under varied load conditions.
Paper & Pulp Industry
Processing equipment like calender rolls, pulpers, and refiners require gearboxes that provide fine-tuned control under high-speed operations. TYGear provides low-noise, accurately calibrated gearboxes that enhance product quality and machinery lifespan.
Elevation & Transport Industry
Elevators, cranes, and transport conveyors need reliable gearboxes to lift and move heavy loads with accuracy and safety. TYGear gearboxes provide torque conversion, direction changes, and shock absorption essential for load-bearing operations.

Commonly used in the compounding and material blending of films, fibers, and plastic compounds, the TB & TBV series gearboxes ensure accurate, synchronized mixing and high performance in extrusion processes.
??Gearboxes for Electric Injection Molding Machines
TGSM series gearboxes utilize a U-shaped reduction structure to enhance servo motor synchronization and torque control for compact efficiency in electric molding applications. These gearboxes are suitable for high-speed, high-torque plastic injection molding applications.
??Helical Gearboxes
Used in conveyors and feeders, these gearboxes deliver smooth transmission and extended service life. Precision grinding and carburized components minimize noise and increase surface contact.
??Right Angle Gearboxes
Designed for space-constrained applications in packaging and automation, these gearboxes allow for angular power transmission with consistent torque delivery.
??Parallel Shaft Gearboxes
Utilized in horizontal machinery such as mixers and conveyor systems, these gearboxes offer easy installation, various gear ratios, and smooth power delivery.
??Bevel Gearboxes
Perfect for changing the direction of power flow in complex machinery layouts. TYGear's bevel gearboxes offer high efficiency and long-term reliability in demanding applications.
??Custom Gearboxes
TYGear provides custom gearbox solutions for specialized machinery, including tunnel borers, winders, and marine equipment.?
??Disc Couplings
Disc couplings are flexible couplings that use thin metal discs to transmit torque while compensating for angular, axial, and parallel misalignments. They are ideal for high-speed, high-precision applications such as pumps, compressors, and servo motors.
??Gear Couplings
Gear couplings consist of toothed hubs and sleeves that transmit high torque and handle limited shaft misalignment. They are commonly used in heavy-duty equipment like rolling mills, crushers, and large industrial mixers.
??Universal Joints
Universal joints, or U-joints, transmit rotary motion between misaligned shafts and allow for flexible angular movement. They are widely used in vehicle drivetrains, crane systems, and industrial automation equipment.
