Agitators for heavy-duty requirements

Ten-tonne agitators move five-metre diameter agitators: NORD DRIVESYSTEMS has designed very special drive solutions for the agitator supplier PRG Präsizions-Rührer. These are used in the huge fermenters of a biogas plant. See more in the video.

„We are using NORD gear units because NORD is a reliable partner who provides excellent quality and worldwide service. The NORD gear units are the central drive for our agitators. They are placed in the top centre of the tanks and drive our agitators – and they have to do that reliably.”
