SEW-EURODRIVE introduces the WES Series stainless steel gear unit, a compact, hygienic drive solution that runs cool–even under continuous operation.

LYMAN, S.C. - SEW-EURODRIVE is proud to introduce the WES Series stainless steel gear unit, a compact, hygienic drive solution that runs cool–even under continuous operation. Unlike worm gear units that overheat, the WES Series integrates SPIROPLAN right-angle gearing, ensuring smooth, reliable performance without excessive heat buildup. Designed for food, beverage, and other hygienic applications, the WES Series is corrosion-resistant, easy to clean, and rated for high-pressure washdowns.

Key advantages:

  • Compact and efficient: No cooling fan, no hygiene risk—ideal for clean environments.
  • Always runs cool: Safe & Reliable
    • SPIROPLAN gearing minimizes friction, reducing heat compared to worm gear units.
    • No burn hazards, ensuring worker and product safety.
  • Hygienic and washdown-ready: Rated for aggressive cleaning agents and washdown environments.
  • Durable and low maintenance: High-efficiency gearing and lubrication systems extend service life.
  • Built for clean, demanding environments and safety: "The WES Series is a breakthrough for industries needing a stainless steel gear unit that stays cool, clean, and reliable," said Tom Ellis, industry account specialist at SEW-EURODRIVE.

Seamless, smooth surface prevents bacteria buildup.

Lightweight, compact design for easy integration into processing lines.

"By integrating SPIROPLAN rightangle gearing, we’ve created a solution that outperforms traditional gear units in hygiene-sensitive applications.”
