We are starting the assembly of Bonfiglioli planetary gearboxes in Alytus: more speed and flexibility for industry
In industry, the speed of decision-making often determines competitive advantage and the final result. Responding to the growing demand for high-quality drive mechanisms, we are starting the assembly of “Bonfiglioli” planetary gearboxes in Alytus, at Naujoji g. 118B.
These planetary gearboxes are widely used across various industrial sectors due to their efficiency, compact design and reliability. As a result, their local availability becomes a significant advantage for companies in the Baltic region.
Local assembly – faster solutions for customers
Until now, planetary gearboxes with specific parameters often had to be ordered from the manufacturer’s factories abroad. This meant longer delivery times and limited flexibility, especially in cases where non-standard solutions were required.
By starting assembly in Alytus, we can quickly configure and assemble gearboxes according to specific technical requirements.
“Previously, customers had to wait for weeks or even months. Now, with assembly capabilities in Alytus, we can respond immediately and, in many cases, offer a solution here and now. This significantly shortens the time from identifying the need to having a fully operational solution,” says Marius Vabalas, Sales Manager at Hidrobalt.
This is especially important for companies seeking to avoid costly downtime and ensure the smooth continuity of production processes.
Planetary gearboxes – a high-efficiency solution
When choosing a drive solution, planetary gearboxes are often one of the key options. They allow power to be transmitted efficiently while maintaining a compact design and reliable operation.
In practice, planetary gearboxes are commonly used in woodworking industry lines, bulk material conveying systems, packaging equipment, quarrying and construction materials production equipment, mixers and various conveyors. They are one of the most popular solutions where high torque and reliable 24/7 operation are required.
“In Alytus, we assemble 300 series planetary gearboxes with a maximum torque range from 2,400 to 14,900 Nm. We can equip them with various input and output configurations, making the solutions easy to adapt to different industrial needs,” says Marius Vabalas.
“Bonfiglioli” is one of the world’s best-known manufacturers of gearboxes and drive systems, with solutions used in industry, logistics, construction machinery and the renewable energy sector. Long-standing experience and high quality standards help ensure reliable equipment operation even under demanding operating conditions.
Advantages of “Bonfiglioli” planetary gearboxes
High efficiency
The gear arrangement enables energy to be transmitted with minimal losses and ensures a high level of efficiency.
Compact design and load distribution
The load is distributed across several gears, allowing high torque to be achieved while maintaining compact dimensions.
High power density
Low weight and high power output provide an excellent power-to-weight ratio.
Stability and precision
The gearboxes operate steadily even under varying loads and ensure precise performance.
Long service life
The design is adapted for operation in demanding conditions, helping to ensure a long service life.
The value of the solution lies beyond technical parameters
Although planetary gearboxes offer strong technical performance, the final result depends on how well they are adapted to specific operating conditions.
“Our goal is not simply to sell a component. We aim to become partners who help optimise processes. We analyse not only technical parameters, but also operating conditions – loads, cycles and environmental factors. This helps ensure reliable and long-lasting equipment performance,” says Marius Vabalas.
Comprehensive solutions for industry
The assembly of planetary gearboxes is one of our areas of activity. We also offer a wide range of industrial solutions – from industrial hoses, hose fittings and quick coupling systems to bearings and bearing units, seals, oil seals and O-rings, as well as gearboxes, electric motors and various hydraulic and pneumatic components.
“When working with customers, we see that efficiency is determined not by a single separate component, but by the performance of the entire system. Problems often arise not because of one part, but because of poor compatibility between components. That is why our goal is not only to offer a product, but to understand the entire process and select a solution that works as one integrated system,” says Marius Vabalas.
This approach allows us to ensure not only technical compatibility, but also reliable, efficient and long-lasting operation of the entire system.
Speed that creates value
Local assembly of “Bonfiglioli” planetary gearboxes in Alytus enables us to respond faster to customer needs, shorten delivery times and offer individually tailored solutions. This helps reduce the risk of downtime and ensures smooth production processes.
“Today, industry requires not only quality, but also the ability to respond quickly to changing situations. By combining high-quality products, technical expertise and responsive service, we aim to be a reliable partner for Lithuanian industrial companies and help them operate more efficiently, more steadily and more competitively. Our goal is for the customer to receive the right solution exactly when it is needed,” concludes Marius Vabalas.
