Industries we serve

At Brown GearTech, we know that no two industries face the same challenges.

The demands of a food processing plant, a recycling facility, or a water treatment system may be very different, but what unites them is the need for reliable, efficient, and durable geared motors, industrial gearboxes, and drive solutions.

For 50 years, OEMs, engineers, and plant managers have benefitted from working with Brown GearTech to design and supply customised gear systems that keep production lines moving and equipment performing under the toughest conditions. Whether it’s high-torque conveyor drives, precision worm gear reducers, or corrosion-resistant helical gearboxes, our solutions are proven across multiple heavy-duty environments.

Our industries

Other heavy-duty manufacturing

Brown GearTech also supports construction, aggregates, and other high-torque industries where downtime isn’t an option. From bespoke industrial gear solutions to rapid repairs, we keep operations running.

Water & environmental systems

Wastewater recovery plants, filtration systems, and quarries all use geared motors and drives to power pumps, paddles, and separators. With IP-rated gear motors and corrosion-resistant designs, we help operators achieve water recycling efficiency and protect mission-critical assets.

Recycling & waste management

From bale presses and shredders to conveyors and sorting systems, recycling plants depend on rugged gearboxes that can handle dust, moisture, and frequent starts under heavy loads. Research shows that the right conveyor drive can cut costs and boost efficiency, exactly where our expertise comes in.

Logistics & refridgerated transport

Modern logistics operations rely on conveyors, automated storage, and refrigeration systems powered by geared motors. We provide energy-efficient drive solutions that reduce downtime and support temperature-controlled environments.

Food Processing

In food production, hygiene and uptime are everything. Gear motors must cope with regular washdowns, variable loads, and continuous running. Our stainless-steel and sealed drive systems help processors maintain high efficiency while meeting safety standards.
