Efficient power transmission is all about torque and rpm. The right gearbox delivers your conveyor system with the combination it needs, and never causes you unplanned downtime or maintenance headaches.
If you need to replace an existing gearbox, want to upgrade your power transmission, or are working on a new installation, consider a Hansen gearbox from West River Conveyors.

Hansen Industrial Transmissions has been in the transmission business for a long time. Independent for many years, since 2011 this Belgian gearbox manufacturer has been part of the giant Sumitomo organization. That’s given them access to some heavyweight technical resources for product R&D.
Hansen is known for robust, heavy-duty gearboxes with high axial and radial load-carrying capabilities and engineered for industrial applications. With their extensive experience supplying equipment for harsh environments they understand the importance of lubrication, bearing design and sealing in ensuring reliable, low vibration power transmission.
Hansen gearboxes/reducers are used in quarrying and mining operations as well as at harbor terminals, in petrochemicals and agriculture. Pick an industrial setting with a need for torque multiplication and you’ll likely find a Hansen gearbox.
Hansen Gearboxes/Reducers
When evaluating gearboxes there are several points to consider:
Reduction ratio
Input and output speeds
Input power
Input and output shaft orientation
Hansen gearboxes and reducers are available in several configurations and with different types of gearing. Configurations are split into parallel or right-angle and single or multi-stage. These may be engineered for either horizontal or vertical installation. Internally, bevel or helical gearing is used as appropriate.

“I have had excellent success with everything I have purchased from West River. The service is great! I have called after hours and received the same top-notch service. The pulleys that I bought have been top-quality and are doing very well. I recently had some alignment work done on our slope belt, with the same high quality workmanship. I would recommend West River to anyone needing gearboxes, pulleys, alignment, or other conveyor components.”

“From the beginning, we wanted to standardize our conveyor equipment. We knew we wanted to minimize the number of spare parts and pulleys. This has been the only time in my career I’ve been able to accomplish this task. The good relationship that we’ve developed with West River is attributed to the genuinely good people that run the company. In my experience, many vendors are primarily interested in maximizing their profit margin but I truly believe the team at West River has the best interest of the customer at heart.”
