Our solutions in the gear manufacturing sector

Rolling mill gears

The complex and harsh environment of steelworks and rolling mills requires construction components which can withstand particular strains: High temperatures, heavy individual loading and continuous operation are but a few of the challenges to be overcome by tapered roller bearings and cylindrical roller bearings in single-row configurations.

thyssenkrupp rothe erde bearings ensure that steelworks and rolling mills reliably meet the thermal and radial load requirements, as well as the overload requirements in their field of application, through their robust and high-quality construction. In this way, the bearings make a significant contribution to operational safety

Marine gearboxes

The gearboxes for ship construction transmit very high torques and must be fit for continuous operation. For this reason, they are usually equipped with hardened and polished gears. Tapered roller bearings and cylindrical bearings in single-row configuration are the typical design. These must achieve a long operational life under maritime conditions. Here at thyssenkrupp rothe erde, we develop these bearings down to the smallest detail with our customers.
