KHK USA Inc. announces Extensive Line of Premium Gearboxes

Large Selection includes Economy, Commercial, and Industrial Right-Angle Drives

Mineola, NY - KHK USA Inc., distributor of the market leading KHK ® brand of metric gears, announces its extensive line of right-angle metric gearboxes, manufactured to the highest quality standards by Kohara Gear Industry Co., of Japan. KHK's large selection of right-angle gearboxes are very quiet, provide smooth transmission of power, and are suitable for a very wide range of applications where speed reduction and a change in orientation is required.


KHK right-angle gearboxes are available with either a plastic housing for light-duty applications, an aluminum housing for medium-duty application, and cast-iron housing for heavy-duty applications. Reduction ratios include 1:1 and 1:2 with single output and dual output shafts.

All KHK right-angle gearboxes contain KHK stock bevel gears. The PBX economy series uses stock carbon steel bevel gears. The KBX medium duty boxes and the CBX heavy duty boxes use case hardened ally steel spiral bevel gears. Both PBX and KBX series are available as off-the-shelf products and are available for immediate delivery. The CBX units are assembled to order as size has 24 permutations of user defined input locations and rotations.

Right Angle gearboxes transmit motion between two shafts at 90 degrees. Their purpose is to redirect motion and where required, reduce the speed. When set to 1:1, right angle gearboxes will change the direction of rotation and rotate the power transmission 90 degrees. We set to 1:2, right-angle gearboxes will not only change the direct of rotation and rotate the power 90 degrees, it will also reduce the output speed to one half of the input speed while increasing the output torque to twice the input torque value.

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection

The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
