Leaders in energy motor bases
LEVERLINK is one of Australia’s leading Original Equipment Manufacturers ( OEM) of stored energy motor bases and impact beds for conveyors.
The company has been designing and manufacturing engineering solutions for almost 30 years, including base frames, guards and motor bases for all types of pumps.
Stored energy motor bases – also known as self- tensioning motor bases, tensioning motor bases or auto tensioning motor bases – are proven to shine even in the harshest of environments.
“A rubber torsional spring is the heart of stored energy motor bases,” Leverlink founder Richard Sharp said.
“This spring provides a constant force that compensates for the stretch and wear of the belt.
“The mechanical design allows for a quick belt fitting, and replacement with a single adjusting screw.
“As a result, safety is increased and the risk of personal injury is minimised.”
Leverlink offers overhead, horizontal and vertical motor bases, designed for either dynamic or static applications.
The motor base models can range in size from 3kW to 1000kW, and be customised to suit a client’s requirements, when required.
This no one size fits all approach also applies to Leverlink’s pump frame range, which is designed in- house to suit the client’s specifications. All the pump drives and machine base frames are site- specific, made in Australia, and include protective coatings.
Leverlink also manufactures guarding for machines, slurry pumps and conveyors that are lightweight and highly durable.
“The materials we use depend on the environment as well as the customers’ requirements,” Mr Sharp said.
“Our engineering team is focused on creating designs that are easy to fit, as well as easy to remove for maintenance purposes.”
While most of its products have a service life exceeding 20 years, Leverlink offers product refurbishments and repairs where needed.
“At some stage, your Leverlink product may require repair or refurbishment,” he said.
“We are able to do this in our state- of- the- art workshop for a fraction of the cost of a new unit, and in many cases, refurbishing can extend the product life to 30 years or more.
“All our refurbishments are backed by a 12- month replacement warranty.”
