PPMA Total Show 2019 NEC Birmingham, 1-3 October, Stand E96
APEX Dynamics UK is set to steal the show on debut at PPMA Total, celebrating its launch of a new range of stainless steel, planetary servo gearboxes in the UK that the company says will be a game-changer for applications in the food, pharmaceutical, packaging and automation sectors – what’s more the kit is Brexit proof!
Visitors to the NEC on October 1-3 should head for Stand E96 to witness the latest in high precision, planetary servo gearbox technology available from APEX Dynamics, the exclusive and only authorised distributor of this equipment in the UK.
Already established in 35 countries but new to the UK, what makes these planetary servo gearboxes different, but not significantly more expensive than standard steel units, is the stainless-steel body and patented design features around the gearbox and bearings.
One of the world’s leading servo gearbox and rack and pinion manufacturers, APEX Dynamics’ precision products are capable of backlash accuracy down to less than one arc minute as well as being cleverly designed for easy cleaning and sterilising in an environment involving food grade materials or pharmaceuticals.
Existing customers include packaging machinery manufacturers, food, pharma, automotive and numerous related markets.
In addition to promoting the new planetary servo gearboxes, which are available in in-line, right angle and a wide range of frame sizes and ratios, the Uttoxeter-based company will also be showcasing an entire range of related servomotor solutions, including rack, pinion, right-angle helical and spiral bevel gearboxes.
First time at PPMA Total for APEX Dynamics, Managing Director Mike Gulliford is thrilled to have such a prestigious launch pad in the UK and is keen to flag up that the company’s customer support and delivery times are also unmatched by its global competitors, a supply line that will not be troubled by a no-deal Brexit because the product is manufactured outside Europe.
He said: “We are a fully-integrated manufacturer with the capability to deliver in three weeks or less, compared to others’ timescales of 15 weeks or more. We also stock the largest range of drop-in replacements for any other manufacturer as well as the widest range of gearbox ratios. What we’re doing today will still apply the day we exit the EU; we won’t be disturbed by Brexit and that’s not true of our major competitors.”
Special features can also be catered for in the three-week timescale, but bespoke and R&D projects might take a little longer for very specific niche products which can be used for increasing applications, especially to do with liquids.
Describing PPMA Total as the company’s ‘major show of the year’, Mike concluded: “PPMA Total is where we can give visitors a vision of the future. They can learn why we believe that we are a world-beating player in this field of technology.”
Founded in Taiwan in 1987, APEX Dynamics Inc. started with the production of take-out robots for plastics injection moulding machines before moving into the technology of high-precision planetary gearboxes for servomotors.
