Expanded local production capacity from drive systems company SEW-Eurodrive’s new Aeroton facility includes the assembly of SEW M-Series air-cooled condenser (MACC) drives for delivery at a rate of three units a week, reducing current lead times from overseas original-equipment manufacturers (OEMs) by about 36 weeks.

Built as part SEW-Eurodrive’s M-Series modular industrial gear units, the MACC is a purpose designed gearbox solution for driving the modern fan-based air-cooled condenser (ACC) systems used in steam-driven power generation plants.
