SEW-EURODRIVE Offers External Lubrication Systems for Heavy Industry Gearing
Now delivered in as little as 6 weeks – matching many heavy industry gearbox lead times.
Wellford, SC – SEW EURODRIVE, now offers external oil cooling and supply systems for heavy industry gearing with lead times as short as six weeks. Built and configured at SEW-EURODRIVE Heavy Industry Gearing (HIG) in Wellford, South Carolina, these systems are engineered to support today’s torque-dense gearboxes—where thermal limitations often determine gearbox size.
Previously available only through longer-lead global channels, these systems are now stocked and assembled in the U.S., eliminating delivery bottlenecks.
Never Lose Your Cool: Precision Cooling for Critical Applications
As HIG drive systems grow more compact and power-dense, thermal management becomes essential. SEW‑EURODRIVE’s external lubrication systems address that challenge, with configurations that ensure oil is delivered, circulated, and cooled exactly as your application demands.
Available types include:
- Oil-to-air cooling systems (OAP1)
- Oil-to-water cooling systems (OWP1)
- Pressure lubrication systems without cooling (ONP1)
Each is sized using SEW‑EURODRIVE’s thermal validation tools and can be gearbox-mounted or skid-mounted for flexibility in layout and maintenance access.
What’s New
- Assembled in the U.S., reducing delivery time from 14–20 weeks to as little as 6 weeks
- Standard options in stock and ready to configure
- Designed to support thicker startup oil viscosities up to 5,000 cSt

- Duplex oil filters (25µm) — allow filter change during operation

- Oil manometer gauge
- Oil thermometer gauge
- Oil pressure switch
