Drop-in Replacement of Sumitomo Products With Transcyko Cyclo Gearboxes & Speed Reducers

July 01, 2024News

At Transcyko, we know that many customers have existing Sumitomo cyclo gearboxes and speed reducers. To make it easy for our customers to upgrade their Sumitomo installation or carry out cost effective maintenance and repairs, we manufacture cyclo drives that are configured as direct drop-in replacements for many standard Sumitomo drives.

What’s the alternative to Sumitomo cyclo gearboxes & speed reducers?

At Transcyko we manufacture cyclo speed reducers and gearmotors that are of equivalent quality to other leading brands, like Sumitomo, at our state of the art manufacturing facility in Taiwan.

There are other manufacturers who supply cyclo drives that appear similar to Sumitomo and Transcyko products, but you need to consider where they are manufactured, and how good the quality control and materials are that go into the production process.

Transcyko offer a cost-effective portfolio of high quality cyclo options

We have taken a sensible approach to our cyclo designs, acknowledging that Sumitomo have market dominance and are on-site at global commercial and industrial sites. This is why we ensure that our portfolio of cyclo products have dimensions and mounting configurations that enable direct swap for Sumitomo products.

For high quality cyclo drives, you have a realistic choice between Transcyko or Sumitomo when you come to renew or upgrade your existing equipment. You will find, however, that as a specialist manufacturer with extensive experience in design and manufacturing of cyclo products we offer high quality at competitive prices.

Are you frustrated with the cost of maintenance and delays in servicing of cyclo drives?

You are not alone if you find it difficult to get good customer service for your cyclo drive repairs and maintenance, and you start wondering if you need to cut back on your inventory when you see the cost of parts.

Cyclo drives offer high performance, durable, gearbox and speed reducer solutions, but this often comes at a premium if you are restricted to a specific manufacturer and provider of parts and support.

Unfortunately, cutting back on spares and maintenance inventory only makes for bigger problems down the road, when you find you have to wait for a long time to get the spares you need, but don’t have in stock, or develop more serious problems due to extended maintenance schedules.

Transcyko supply cyclo parts & components on demand with 100% Sumitomo compatibility

Another feature of our cyclo designs is to manufacture cyclo gearmotors and speed reducers that have matching component sizes to many standard Sumitomo equivalents. This means that we can also rapidly provide you with parts and servicing for your Sumitomo gearmotors and speed reducers. You might be very pleasantly surprised by the cost and speed of service!

Excellent quality standards are essential in cycloidal gearbox manufacturing

Not all cyclo drive manufacturers are the same, and you may have concerns about quality and reliability. The smooth operation, even power transmission, low wear and reliability of cyclo drives is not a random result of throwing components together! Without excellent quality control and material technology, a ‘budget’ cyclo gearbox will have a very short lifespan.

Transcyko uses advanced CMM quality control and both manual and automated inspection techniques to guarantee quality. We also have access to very high quality steels and other fabrication materials due to our long partnerships with Tier 1 material suppliers.

Which Sumitomo products can be swapped for Transcyko equivalents?

Transcyko drop-in replacements are available for the following range of commonly used Sumitomo products:

We can provide you with substitutes with the same features and specifications as the Sumitomo equivalent, and many Transcyko cyclo gearboxes and speed reducer service parts are 100% compatible with Sumitomo products. We build to the same or better quality standards, and offer a cost-effective alternative.

At Transycko we recognize the importance of effective, responsive, after sales service and support for our customers, both for Transycko products and for our servicing capabilities for other brands.
