Gear array and straightening machine with such

摘要

A gear drive system (3) for a sheet metal coil flattener (1) has a motor input shaft (5) and a number of output drives (7.1...). One or more of the output stages (7.2, 7.5) has a torque monitoring device (10.2, 10.5) operating independently of the other drive output shafts and gives commensurate output signals (SS2, SS5).
