Sumitomo is a leader in the manufacture of power transmission components for industries like mining, cement, and ports. They produce an extensive range of reducers, and it became broader with their acquisition of Hansen Industrial Transmissions in 2011.
Sumitomo engineers understand the challenges posed by dirt, water, corrosive materials, and high shock loads. That’s why their power transmission components are built rugged and durable. Applications include belt feeders and conveyors, screw conveyors, agitators, and bucket elevators.

Sumitomo Reducer Gearing
No matter how robust your power transmission components, shock loads and dirty, hostile environments will take a toll. When you need replacement Sumitomo reducer gearing, West River Conveyors is ready to help.
If you need different ratios, perhaps for increased speed or higher torque, replace gearing rather than the entire unit.

“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.”

“West River is a friend to the mining industry, supplying quality components at a competitive price!”
– Barry Tackett, Operations Manager, Mountain Aggregates
“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.”
– Brad Rigsby, General Manager, Black Panther Mining

West River’s dedication to excellence in customer service is exceptional. All phone calls and emails are replied to in a timely manner and deadlines are always met even when they may seem unachievable.”
