A drive problem is a production continuity problem
Industrial plants most often face these challenges:
Component unavailability extends downtime
A single drive failure stops the entire production line
Slow supplier response increases losses
Selection under pressure often leads to further failures
We deliver drives tailored to the realities of your production
We provide fast selection, availability and reliability—tailored to your application.
Solutions from renowned manufacturers
Planetary gear units (Motovario HPL, Chiaravalli CHPL and Bonfiglioli) are among the most compact drive solutions on the market thanks to their design and materials. They combine low weight with high efficiency and can transmit the highest loads of all gearbox types. Their compact design also enables lighter, more cost-effective machine structures.
Availability and fast delivery
By combining the Motovario planetary gearbox assembly centre with the certified MAC Premium standard, we can quickly assemble and deliver a tailored solution, even when it is not immediately available from stock.
Products available from stock
As a distributor of European manufacturers, we ensure regular, scheduled deliveries. By continuously monitoring stock levels, we can respond quickly to customer needs and maintain consistent product availability.
Technical selection and engineering support
Customers often encounter salespeople who lack product knowledge and cannot select the right solution. At Archimedes, each product category is handled by a dedicated, experienced specialist. This means customers speak directly with an expert who can select the right components immediately, saving time and avoiding mistakes.
Support in adapting the solution to operating conditions
Our range of compact planetary gearboxes is smaller and lighter, making it easy to fit even the most demanding installation spaces. Their compact design also reduces transport costs.
Multiple gearbox types—one supplier
We provide access to a wide range of gearboxes from leading European manufacturers, allowing us to match a solution to virtually any application. You can source all required gearboxes from one supplier, eliminating the need to search elsewhere. We also provide technical support, including assistance with gearbox connection from our experienced automation engineers.
Select a drive without the risk of costly mistakes
Drive selection affects not only machine performance, but also costs, reliability and the stability of the entire production process. A mistake at this stage often results in overheating, reduced service life or unplanned downtime.
In this practical guide, we explain step by step which parameters truly matter and what to consider so the drive performs under real operating conditions—not just “on paper”. Download the guide and check whether your project is missing any key element.
