Bonfiglioli Drive Solutions
Bonfiglioli manufactures a broad range of power transmission and drive products used across industrial processes, automation, and mobile equipment. Their portfolio spans gearmotors, planetary gearboxes, heavy duty geared units, and drive electronics, allowing drive systems to be specified around the real demands of the application rather than forcing a single product type.
In mining and bulk material handling, Bonfiglioli focuses on the practical challenges that break equipment, such as high start-up torque, shock loads from material drops, and dusty environments. Their solutions are commonly positioned around feeders, conveyors, stackers and reclaimers, and other mining plant equipment where drive reliability is critical.

WHY CHOOSE BONFIGLIOLI FROM ROBDAY MINING

CORRECT DRIVE SELECTION FOR DUTY
Gearmotor and gearbox options across light, medium, and heavy duty applications help match torque and layout requirements.
MINING AND BULK HANDLING FOCUS
Solutions are positioned to handle high start-up torque, shock loads, and dusty environments common in mines.

HIGH TORQUE PLANETARY OPTIONS
Planetary ranges like the 300 Series and 300M Series are built for torque density and heavy duty requirements.

BROADER SYSTEM CAPABILITY
Robday considers the full system impact, like wear, maintenance intervals, and containment requirements, not just the pump model.
What Bonfiglioli Drives Are Used For
Bonfiglioli drive systems are used across industrial applications like conveyors and bulk material handling, where correct sizing must account for load, start-up torque, and site conditions. Bonfiglioli specifically references complete feeder and conveyor solutions that can include integrated base plates and torque arms, with protection for harsh environments.
In mining contexts, Bonfiglioli positions solutions around plant stages like feeding, stacking and reclaiming, and unloading, where dependable power transmission helps maintain consistent throughput.
Frequently Asked Questions
