Reuland, Industry plant, utilizes lean manufacturing techniques within its multiple machine shop operations. Work cells assist in processing various aluminum, steel, and brass motor components. Machinery and equipment can be quickly converted or re-tooled to begin production on the next series of motor orders or motor components. It's this production conversion and lean manufacturing techniques that assist Reuland in relatively short motor production lead-times.
Reuland, Industry Plant, utilizes CNC machining centers to process various motor part components. Programmed CNC machining centers allows Reuland to efficiently and with precision, meet exacting customer specifications and production design processing tolerances. Reuland's quality is simply "Quality is Our Top Priority."
Reuland, Industry plant, Foundry Pattern Shop. Because Reuland utilizes its own fully functioning aluminum foundry, production demands, or more specifically, pattern tooling demands vary from week-to-week, customer-to-customer, project-to-project, etc. Pattern tooling drives production schedules and can impact product and production design, schedules and efficiencies. Reuland houses its own Pattern Shop or foundry tooling department. The department utilizes time tested and proven techniques to design and produce foundry production tooling to meet extremely demanding operational foundry process conditions. Reuland prides itself on the design staff with well over fifty years of collective tooling production knowledge. Again, it's with this flexibility in design and tooling production capabilities that makes Reuland a premier motor manufacturer.
Reuland, Industry plant, final assembly area. Reuland utilizes classic MRP driven inventory and production techniques. From the conception of the order through motor or product casting production, motor component production and stock releases to final assembly, product parts or components release systematically and efficiently allowing Reuland to control production schedules and control production schedule lead-times as well as handle a vast variety of various types and sizes of custom and standard motors and motor products. It's this level of detail and commitment to production and our customers that helped Reuland become a leader in both basic and specialty motor and motor product applications.
Reuland variable speed, inverter duty motors are available in both open loop and closed loop designs. Series 100 and Phasor2000 styles are designed and manufactured for the most demanding applications. Closed loop designs will handle up to 1000:1 constant torque requirements and full torque at zero speed. Reuland's unique slot designs minimize the heating and noise effects induced by drive switching frequencies (harmonics) and eliminate typical cogging at low frequency operation. Variable speed designs are also available with wide constant power ranges often required in machine tool spindle applications. Variable speed motors are available from fractional horsepower through several hundred horsepower in open, enclosed and blower cooled enclosures, continuous or intermittent duty. Use of variable speed motors spans a multitude of applications. Machine tools, material handling, pumps, fans and elevators, to name a few.

Our popular MagnaStop brake is a solenoid activated, spring set type brake. The MagnaStop brake is available in standard and dust-tight/waterproof enclosures in standard AC voltages. Torque ratings available range from (1.5-20) lb. Ft. The brake can be ordered as a traditional C-face mount or as a "double C-face" design. The MagnaStop can also be ordered as foot mounted design.
Reuland also offers a wide range of direct acting magnetic disc brakes. These brakes are also available as standard, dust-tight/waterproof, or marine duty enclosures. Torque ratings available vary from 1.5 to 1000 lb. Ft. Reuland brakes are defined as "fail safe". When power is applied to the brake, the brake releases the motor shaft. The load is then free to turn. When power is removed or lost, the brake grabs the motor shaft and stops the load. A brake release knob or flipper is provided to manually release the brake. We offer both adjustable and non-adjustable designs. Reuland brakes are available in both single and three phase designs. Some brakes are available in DC power. Finally, Reuland offers it's "X" series brakes. These brakes are designed to mount to non-Reuland built motors.
Partial or "shell" motors are AC induction, squirrel cage stator and rotor sets. Partial motors range from small fractional horsepower units to several hundred horsepower. The wound stator core is available either as a machined core or with a shell housing to match most any existing diameter requirement. The rotor is available with standard or special machined bores. The user may design partial motors into their equipment and provide whatever means of cooling preferred. High-speed designs are available up to 1500 hertz.
Common applications are motorized spindles, pumps, small hoist motors, drilling and boring machines, routers, arbors, grinders or most any application where the motor must be built-in to another component.
AC induction, squirrel cage elevator motors may be two speed, single speed or variable speed (VVVF). Traditionally a DC machine, AC variable frequency is today's state of the art prime mover for most elevators. Low slip, closed loop vector duty motors are available from 5 to 200 horsepower 4, 6, 8 or 10 pole. Reuland's unique electrical and mechanical designs are ideally suited for the demanding low noise levels and positioning requirements required for this application.
New construction and modernization (retrofitting existing old DC installations) for traction machines is where Reuland's expertise lies. Many older DC machines utilized special flange mount, single bearing motor designs and Reuland has developed a/c "drop-in" replacements for all styles and manufacturer's machines such as Westinghouse, Otis, Titan, Northern, Armor, and Dover. Our bolt-up designs eliminate the need for costly adapters and modifications to standard flange mount motors.
Reuland's crane and hoist motors have been the corner stone of our company for over 50 years.
Widely recognized by both the Crane Manufactures Association of America (CMAA) and the Hoist Manufactures Institute (HMI), a wide variety of designs and enclosures from fractional to 250 horsepower are available.
Motors can be ordered in 1800, 1200, 900, 720, and 600 rpm. Hoist designs from severe service to standby exist. Likewise, bridge and trolley motors from continuous service to infrequent duty are available. These motors come be both AC induction and Wound Rotor designs.
Typical crane & hoist duty motors are 15, 30, and 60-minute designs in open drip proof or non-ventilated enclosures. However, we offer a wide selection of alternate or custom duty ratings. For example, wound rotor motors are available in 120-minute duty as fan cooled or non-ventilated designs while scrap-handling cranes can be rated continuous duty as blower cooled units.
Reuland has pioneered the development of high speed, AC, squirrel cage motors for over 15 years and is recognized as a world leader in this market. Over 1000 designs exist for high speed, low power; high speed, high power and high speed, low inertia, high response machines. Ratings such as 500 HP, 10,000 RPM and 75 HP, 40,000 RPM are common. High-speed Partial motors are available up to 100,000 RPM. Each motor can be tailored to the User's specific load/speed ranges, high torque at low speed, and wide constant power ranges.
High speed motors are commonly used with machine tools, motorized spindles, grinders, routers, pumps, arbors, test stands, dynamometers, centrifuge drives and replacing costly speed increasers.
Why should you specify Reuland Flexible Couplings? Reuland uses stronger materials.
Because flexible couplings are subjected to constant torque and stress, they eventually wear out. Obviously, the longer the coupling lasts, the more value you get for your money.
The key to flexible coupling longevity is the elastomeric element that is sandwiched between the coupling halves. Most flexible coupling manufacturers use compression-molded, rubber-like materials for their standard grommets. Reuland, however, uses a high-tech injection molded material called Lomod for our standard grommets. Torque tests and shock loads prove Lomod is stronger and more durable than most of our competitors' standard elastomeric elements.
Reuland flexible couplings cost less. Lomod is priced like a standard grommet while providing the performance and specifications of a premium selection. This allows us to offer you a superior product that saves you money when you purchase it ... and that continues to save you money with lowered maintenance and replacement costs.
Reuland flexible couplings are made from lightweight aluminum. Our flexible couplings are lighter than steel and cast iron couplings, which helps prolong bearing and seal life on pumps, gearboxes and motors. Our lightweight aluminum couplings also cost less to ship to your location.
Reuland flexible couplings are precision machined. By maintaining tight tolerances, we help eliminate vibration and noise. Alignment is easily made with a straight edge and a feeler gage. Reuland flexible couplings offer double set screws standard. Most manufacturers charge you extra for a double set screw option. Since our couplings are designed to be the finest on the market we make double set screws standard on all coupling sizes. The extra set screw offers greater hoop stress generation, creating a more secure fit from coupling to shaft.
Rigorous Quality Control. We design and manufacture all flexible couplings ourselves. And we subject each one to exacting quality control inspections. This total control allows us to offer you higher quality at a lower price.
Specials, Metrics and Splines. Reuland offers one of the industry's largest selections of standard flexible couplings. In addition, splines, metric bores and keys, and other special options may be available from stock. If not, we can modify any flexible coupling to your exact specifications. Please consult the factory for your special needs.
The One Source for all Your Flexible Couplings and Pump/Motor Adapter Needs. When you connect a pump to a motor, you want a perfect alignment for optimal performance. And that's what you get when you specify flexible couplings and pump/motor adapters from Reuland. These two components work together to achieve near-perfect concentricity. Together they reduce vibration, heat noise and wear and tear. In short they're your best guarantee for increased performance and life expectancy.
Fast Delivery. Our flexible couplings are stocked in Reuland's Midwest and West Coast facilities for fast response and reduced transportation costs. Most orders are shipped within 24 hours of receiving your order.
The Reuland Guarantee. All Reuland products are covered by our quality and service guarantee. You must be satisfied with the quality of a Reuland flexible coupling or we'll replace it. Complete details of our Quality and Service Guarantee are listed on our flexible coupling policy sheet.
