SEW-EURODRIVE has introduced the WES Series stainless steel gear unit, a compact drive solution designed for hygienic environments in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries.

The WES Series incorporates SPIROPLAN right-angle gearing, allowing for continuous operation without overheating - a common issue with traditional worm gear units. This innovation eliminates the need for cooling fans, reducing hygiene risks in clean environments.

Tom Ellis, Industry Account Specialist at SEW-EURODRIVE, said, "The WES Series is a breakthrough for industries needing a stainless steel gear unit that stays cool, clean, and reliable."

Key features of the WES Series include:

  • Corrosion-resistant design rated for high-pressure washdowns
  • Seamless, smooth surface to prevent bacteria buildup
  • Compact and lightweight construction for easy integration
  • High-efficiency gearing for extended service life

The gear unit is specifically tailored for applications in food and beverage processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and chemical industries where hygiene and reliability are critical.
