Turret drive is the main gear box assembly that constitutes the body that delivers mechanical and hydraulic alignment force needed to turn the tank turret precisely. Menatek have the capability to design and manufacture a variety of Turret Drives used on different vehicles for different applications.
Build to Print
MENATEK provides build-to-print manufacturing solutions for tracked and wheeled military platforms, producing components and assemblies in accordance with customer drawings, technical specifications and applicable quality requirements.
Contact UsTransfer Cases are power transmitting gear boxes used where parallel, angled or differential power transmission is needed throughout the driveline of various tracked and wheeled vehicles.
PTOs are complex gearboxes used to take power from a power source such as an engine or a transmission and transmit it to various mechanical and/or electromechanical components such as generators, pumps and etc.
Track Assembly is a unique component which provides the vehicle mobility. By transmitting the torque coming from the final drive into directional movement, it enables the tracked platforms to move in almost all types of terrain. Track assembly composes of center guide, track shoe links and each links are connected with end connectors.
Torsion bar is one of the most crucial part belong to running gear of military tracked vehicles. It is basically a spring which works under torsional load.
Track Adjuster is an important component which adjusts the tension of track assembly by collapsing and extending when needed. Track adjuster works together with the idler assembly to provide the right amount of flexibility for the track assembly.
Radiators are heat exchangers used for cooling internal combustion engines. These types of engines are often cooled by circulating water or oil-based engine coolant through the engine block, where it is heated, then through the radiator where it loses heat to the atmosphere, and then returned to the engine by the help of a circulation pump.
Road Wheels are other important components of running gear which create the interference between the support arm and the track assembly. They are basically metal rims vulcanized with a tough rubber around. Constantly working under high pressure and friction, the rubber’s recipe and adhesion strength to the rim are key points to Road Wheel production.
Sprocket assembly is a component of running gear of military tracked vehicles which takes role in driving the track assembly. It conducts the torque from final drive to track assembly. It is consist of two different main parts; (2ea) sprocket gear and sprocket carrier.
Support Assembly is the main component of the suspension system which enables movement of wheel and takes role in conducting the displacement of wheel into other suspension components such as rotary damper, shock absorber or torsion bar.
Shock absorber is a suspension component which damps jounce and rebound motion of the road arms & wheels. There are two major types of shock absorbers which are used on military vehicles; linear dampers and rotary dampers. Duty of both types is to absorb energy by dissipating it.
Turret drive is the main gear box assembly that constitutes the body that delivers mechanical and hydraulic alignment force needed to turn the tank turret precisely.
Angle Drives are gearboxes used to direct and transmit the power of a driving unit such as a motor. Spiral bevel gears are used in Angle Drives to change the direction of the transmission by 90 degrees with respect to the driving shaft.
Final Drive is a crucial component of the running gear, located between the transmission output shaft and sprocket assembly. The purpose of the final drive is to provide the final stage of gear reduction to decrease RPM and increase torque before the power is transmitted to the track shoes.
