Bonfiglioli Transmission Pvt. Ltd. 
• About the Company : 
Bonfiglioli was established on 16 April 1956 to 
put into practice the business ideas of 
Clementino Bonfiglioli, who brought to his 
new company years of experience in the 
design and manufacture of gearboxes for 
agricultural machinery and motorcycles 
(including legendary names like Ducati, Gilera 
and Moto Morini).
Founder Of The Company 
• Clementino Bonfiglioli : 
Clementino Bonfiglioli was born in Bologna in 1928. 
He dedicated himself to the study of engineering and 
graduated from the “AldiniValeriani” Technical 
Institute. He began work as a designer and tester in 
leading gearbox companies in Bologna where he very 
soon came to appreciate how much growth that 
sector would soon enjoy as the result of 
developments in industrial automation in the 
Bologna area.
Brands of the Company 
• Bongfiglioli Riduttori: Bonfiglioli Riduttori designs 
and produces gear motors and power 
transmission components for integration into 
applications of all kinds and dimensions. 
• Bonfiglioli Trasmital: Bonfiglioli Trasmital 
specialises in the production of planetary 
gearboxes for mobile machines, from excavators 
to road construction machinery, and also 
produces gearboxes for wind turbines.
• Bonfiglioli Vectron: Bonfiglioli Vectron offers a 
wide range of electronic products and 
solutions for electrical power control and 
conversion, including frequency converters, 
photovoltaic inverters, regenerative systems 
and servomotors. 
• Tecnoingranaggi: The Tecnoingranaggi brand 
is dedicated to the production of high 
precision, low backlash planetary gear units.
Gear-motors & Gearboxes 
A complete range of gear-motors, 
gearboxes and mechanical speed 
variators for light duty industrial 
automation applications are produced by 
the company.
Helical Gear-motors & gearboxes 
A comprehensive range of versatile 
multipurpose industry in-line, shaft-mounted, 
single and multi-stage, high torque helical 
gear motors and gearboxes.
Bevel Helical Gear Motors & 
Gearboxes 
Versatile bevel helical gear motors & 
gearboxes for high efficiency application and 
high torque ratings.
Worm Gear Motors 
Industry worm gear motors comprehensive 
range combining state-of-the-art technology 
and price effectiveness.
Planetary Gear Motors 
Compact, powerful planetary gear 
motors for industrial and heavy duty 
severe applications.
Specific Work 
• Purpose: 
To understand the process of gear box 
selection and subsequent installation with 
derailing on preventive maintenance 
procedures.
Processes Conducted 
• Gear box selection – (based on cost, 
application) 
• Gearbox ordering (internal) 
• Gearbox installation and commissioning 
• Preventive and pre-emptive maintenance
Gearbox Selection Tools 
• Online Selection of Gearboxes: 
We can select gearboxes online by providing 
basic information like ratio required, motor 
form, torque required etc. Other factors like 
cost, models etc. are decided with the help of 
company’s representatives.
• Gearbox Selection Tools: 
Some companies like Nord, Sew etc. use selection 
software like Nord Cad etc. However, Bonfiglioli 
currently does not use any such software. This is due 
to high variety and range of gearboxes. 
• Catalogue of Bonfiglioli: 
Bonfiglioli has a very well maintained and 
defined catalogue for each range of product 
offerings. The data required for selection of 
gearbox can be applied to sort out the 
required model and same can be discussed 
with the Bonfiglioli representatives.
Information of AS Series Gearbox 
• Torque: 
Rated Torque: Torque transmissible through 
output shaft, under uniform loading. 
Required Torque: Torque corresponding to 
application requirements. It must always be 
equal to or less than rated torque for the 
gearbox under study. 
Calculated Torque: torque value to be used 
when selecting the gearbox.
• Power: 
Input Rated Power: the power applicable to 
input shaft based on input speed n1 and 
corresponding to service factor fs = 1. 
• Thermal Capacity: Pt is the power that can be 
transmitted through the gear unit, under a 
continuous duty and an ambient temperature 
of 20C, without resulting into damage of the 
inner parts or degradation of the lubricant 
properties.
• Efficiency: Obtained from the relationship of 
output power to input power. 
• Gear Ratio: The value for the gear ratio is 
referred to with the letter (i) and calculated 
through the relationship of the input speed n1 
to the output speed n2: 
i= n1/n2 
The gear ratio is usually a decimal fraction.
• Service Factor: This factor is the numeric value 
describing reducer service duty. It takes into 
consideration, with unavoidable 
approximation, daily operating conditions, 
load variations and overheads connected with 
reducer application. 
• Maintenance: 
Life lubricated gearboxes do not require any 
periodical oil changes. For other types of 
gearboxes, the first oil changes must take 
place after about 300 hours of operation.
Installation of the Gearbox 
• Make sure that the gearbox is correctly secured 
to avoid vibrations. 
• Before being paint coated, the machined surface 
and the outer face of the oil seals must be 
protected. 
• Mating surfaces must be cleaned and treated 
with suitable protective products 
• For outdoor installation provide adequate guards 
in order to protect the drive from rainfalls as well 
as direct sun radiation.
Gearbox Selection by taking One 
Instance 
• Details obtained from Customer: 
Requirement of Motor (kW): 15 kW 
Output Speed required: 65 – 70 rpm 
Torque required: 2000 Nm
Result of Selection
