In this environment, you cannot afford breakdowns. With that in mind, many major courier services commit to using our speed reducers for their reliability and high-efficiency performance.

Parcel Handling Brochure

"We have over 20 miles of belt conveyors, some up to five feet wide, move the packages through a complex network at speeds to 400fpm. When you move those volumes at those speeds, you need to avoid a drive breakdown. We choose Sumitomo Cyclo® speed reducer because problems often associated with toothed gears are precluded."

"In our environment, it’s about reliability. The Cyclo® is the most reliable reducer in the market. With the Cyclo®, there is no catastrophic failure. They just begin to get noisy, allowing us to stand by the reducer and replace when it’s convenient to us. Its been a good partnership with Sumitomo all around, from the local salesperson, to the technical support, to the customer service in Glendale Heights."
