Jerry Hodek, Managing Director of Exico, explains "the large number of MRT variations enables us to provide a direct equivalent to almost any commonly used right angle worm gearboxes on the market, and offers users in all market sectors a real cost effective alternative to the units that they are currently using.
However, the range is not just suitable for the replacement market, the cost competitiveness and flexibility of the MRT design also means that we are ideally placed to provide OEM and USERS with a volume supply solution and help them to a real competitive advantage".

Units intended for the food and chemical industries are available with stainless steel output shafts and fasteners.

The boxes can be supplied in three versions: as fully motorised units, solid input versions (i.e with input shafts) and as motor ready units.
Exico customers can choose from one of the UK's largest stocks of Siemens and budget-priced Exico M-Series motors to add to their gearbox, providing all the added convenience and cost saving of using one supplier.
All MRT variations are supplied with a 12month warranty and are fully supported by Exico engineers.
