Packaging Machinery
Let Boston Gear help you get out of a jam!
Whether you’re manufacturing cartoning machinery, case erecting, case packing, case sealing or tray forming/packing machines, the requirements are the same: faster, more reliable machines. At the same time, your customers require greater line efficiency as well as easy fault detection and recovery.
As the speed your machinery increases, so does the potential for costly jams. That's why many of today's Packaging OEMs are using safety devices such as overload clutches and safety switches to improve the reliability of their machines. Overload Clutches protect machines from damage due to jammed production lines and loading problems. While you are focusing on speed performance, let Altra assist you with products such as overload clutches, sensors, and safety switches, that will enable greater line efficiency as well as fault detection and recovery.
Ease your reliability worries and buy your speed reducer from Boston Gear. Boston Gear offers the industry's greatest variety of gear drive sizes fabricated with the highest quality materials, providing strength and durability.
Cartoning and case packing machines often require a torque limiting device to provide reliable system timing. By providing a wider torque range and a higher RPM capacity than the competition, Centrigard overload clutches provide more application flexibility than competitive products.
Integrate Centric overload clutches into your machine and reduce the damage and lost productivity that can occur due to equipment jams or loading problems. Centric clutches
provide a more accurate method of torque control over thousands of trips with no operator intervention.
Designed for caustic washdown
applications, units feature trusted 700 Series worm gearing, a 316 stainless rounded housing with smooth uninterrupted surfaces designed to prevent particle accumulation and pooling fluids, double lipped shaft seals, covers for all hardware and counter bored holes.

Boston Gear's 800 Series contains a focused selection of compact, heavy duty helical gear drives that offer long-life performance and simplified maintenance. The 800 Series provides a functional interchange for SEW Eurodrive and other European manufacturers' helical gear drives, making it uniquely practical for replacement
applications.
Warner Electric has many years
of experience in applying sensors
and switches in motion control
applications. Our broad range
of innovative and technologically
advanced noncontact sensors,
industrial limit switches, and safety technology products offer our customers the exact solution to satisfy their sensing applications.
These units combine the best of both chain and belt drives, providing positive power transmission and accurate speeds while requiring little maintenance. Load capacities scale up to 1200 HP at 1750 RPM.
Formsprag clutches are available
in several self contained standard bearing configurations for overrunning, backstopping and indexing applications.
The free action sprag retainer enables infinitely changing wear points for longer life as compared to other one way clutch technologies. This design
provides the greatest number of load elements, maximizing the torque capacity of the clutch.
This clutch has the widest torque range in its class: 100 to 1,000 in. lbs., and will limit transmitted torque no matter if the overload jam is once a year or many times per day. The cost-effective design with fewer components combined with a corrosion resistant hard-anodized housing provide years of dependable service. Other features include a fully automatic reset and
bi-directional single position clutch.
