Cotta Speed Increaser Features

  • High Speed Applications – Cotta speed increasers are designed for high RPM performance making them perfect for drilling industries and aviation component testing.
  • Versatile – Compatible with hydraulic pumps and PTO’s, our speed increasers serve many industrial sectors, including mining and masthead drilling. They can also perform EV component testing.
  • Heavy Duty – Tapered roller bearings, our gearboxes are built to handle heavy loads and high RPM applications and will withstand the toughest environments.
  • Compatibility – Our gearboxes are designed to work seamlessly with hydraulic pump systems, facilitating hydraulic power generation for various equipment by linking the tractor’s PTO to the hydraulic pump.
  • Efficiency – The inclusion of speed reducers in our gearboxes decreases the rotational speed of a PTO shaft from 1000 rpm to 540 rpm, optimizing equipment usage and improving efficiency and performance in machinery.

Installation and Service

Cotta speed increasers require rear support and are driven clockwise when facing the input shaft. To ensure smooth operation, fill the level plug with gear oil before first use. Regular maintenance and proper lubrication are key to extending the life of your gearbox and its performance.
