Big Couplings - July 2007

TA Australia recently won and order for three Esco gear couplings.

So what?

These couplings are not small and not cheap. The Esco Gear Coupling order is worth over A$100,000 and they where big couplings!

Each coupling weighs over 1500kg, are just under 1000mm outside diameter and have a torque rating of 560,000Nm.

Gear couplings such as these are regularly used on mill drives for example in the mining industry. With the mining boom in Australia, this is a great opportunity for all CMG Engineering Group companies that deal with the mine site to be aware to potential sales such as these that can be serviced by the CMG Engineering Group and in particular by Transmission Australia.

If we sell the electric motor or a gearmotor, something is hanging off the shaft! Good chance it will be a power transmission product that TA can supply. It is also a way to value add to the order, cross promote the advantages of dealing with the CMG Engineering Group and add value to our customers purchasing process.

TA expands with new acquisition - December 2006

Transmission Australia is pleased to announce that the transmission division of the Engineered Products Group Pty Ltd (EPG) will be integrated into TA (effective 01.12.06). EPG, an Australian owned company with five branches nationwide and four divisions (Transmission, Fluid Power, Pump and Engine) made the decision to divest itself of the power transmission aspect of the business and intensify efforts on pumping and fluid control.

The EPG transmission division was founded in the late 1800's under the name Gibson Battle Company. Products distributed by the EPG power transmission division will add significantly to the TA range. TA is very happy to announce that we will be the importer/distributors of the KANA and Pulton products. We will also be the preferred supplier of the Rexnord Omega coupling.

We would like to welcome the staff from EPG who will be joining us around the country.
