BOGE AIR. THE AIR TO WORK.

The patented BOGE GM Drive

for highest efficiency

Patent number 44 13 422

Provides the optimum transmission of motor speed to the airend
Automatically and dynamically maintains the optimum belt tension
in every operating phase providing the best efficiency and economy
Self adjusting belt tension completely maintenance free
The automatic belt tensioning ensures consistent torque stresses
maximising belt life
Factory pre-set system means ready-to-use once transportation
bolt has been adjusted
The GM Drive system protects both motor and airend.
It is easily accessible for maintenance and belt change

The BOGE GM-Drive technical perfection

GM = motor weight
GI = spring pressure
MA = starting torque
MB = operating torque

G = GM + GI

The BOGE GM system geometry makes optimum use of motor weight and torque
During operation at either full load or no load the moment MB produces optimum belt tensioning maximising belt life
Constant belt tensioning in every operating phase minimising belt wear
Self tensioning V-Belt drive system maintenance free
The spring is pre-tensioned at the factory to exactly compensate for the actual motor weight user friendly
The GM drive geometry is perfectly aligned in three planes eliminating the need for further adjustment when changing the belts service friendly
At standstill the belt tension is low minimising both belt and bearing stresses for longer life
Bolt and spring ensure transport safety and thereafter provide a simple lifting pivot for easy belt change maintenance friendly
