Our speed reducer for turbine test bench is dressing up to head for our test center.
This 10 tons beast is able to transmit 12MW with 10 000 Nm on 16 000 rpm high speed line. It includes two low speed lines turning at 3 972 and 3 200 rpm.
It comes with a 15kNm torque meter mounted on HS line.
Here we are, just moved in our new premises at 17 rue Jean Corona in Vaulx-en-Velin still in Lyon area, ready to welcome you and carry out your projects. This new location, bigger with no less than 2400m² of workshop and 540m² of offices, allowed us to modernize our equipment and gather in the same place workshop and offices. These last years the trust of our customers conducted us to carry out projects ever more impressive and complex. Today more than ever we are ready to face the challenge of custom made gearbox manufacturing. See you soon at BCSA GEAR.
In response to the sanitary crisis related to COVID-19, we mobilize all our strength to ensure the protection of our employees, customers, suppliers, service providers and of course all their family.
Social distancing measures have been undertaken according to national directives. Thus, part of our employees is teleworking and all our work trips are postponed.
In this crisis period, we endeavor to maintain our business running while taking all the precautionary measures. Nevertheless, delivery delays may occur because of the closure from part of our suppliers or service providers.
Our team stays at your disposal during our normal opening hours. Do not hesitate to contact us by emails or phone preferring mobile phone numbers.
We are monitoring the current sanitary crisis very carefully and we hope seeing you soon. We wish you all to get through this period the best as possible and more importantly in good health.
Looking forward to see you,
The BCSA GEAR team
This gearbox is just the fastest T-shape gearbox we have designed with its 28 484 rpm. It will be very soon integrated to an emotor test bench for the automotive industry.
The speed increaser SP 3600/4 was designed to become integrated into an existing testing cell to test in particular the last generation of traction motors. Thus it is custom-made and provided with its lubrication unit. The size of the gearbox is already big (5m wide) and it gets embedded into a 20t BCSA manufactured baseframe of 8m X 5m.
On a performance level, each line can transmit 1MW power with automatic clutch depending on the specified speed.
This speed increaser is an evolution of the T-shape gearboxes for which we have gain a sound expertise through the 20 units and more manufactured. Thus we found the usual bevel gears but also intermediary gear trains allowing a vertical offset easily recognizable with this impressive column. This offset is made to answer the best as possible our customer dimension needs. Unlike the other T-shape gearboxes mainly used for test benches, this one is designed for production line with 50 000h lifetime as it is used for engine validation.

This T-shape gearbox has a phonic wheel embedded for rotational speed measurement and is also equipped with a torquemeter on HS side. The very low gear backlash gives the test system durability in every validation steps.
Heavy and robust, those speed increasers are built for high performances. The two high power gearboxes are designed with a vertical offset to answer specific customer constraints and integrate torquemeters flanged to the casing. They can transmit torque from 10 000 to 70 000 Nm at high speeds up to 12 000 rpm. The two speed increasers are part of an aircraft turbine test bench

Last June Boisset & Cie BC SA becomes BCSA GEAR, and the company changes hands. Thus it is with a lot of emotions that Mr Jacques Boisset is getting a well-deserved retirement and hands over the company to Mr David Montillet and Mr Christophe Boisset. Indeed the previous CEO made the choice of a continuity for the company keeping all activities, its organization and dynamism. A page turns but the BCSA GEAR story continues.
This is our last gearbox for balancing machines just getting out of our workshop. This speed increaser allows a gear shifting between the coaxial shafts. Thus on the second gear we reach a 10/1 ratio between LS and HS shafts. As the previous balancing machine gearboxes, it is designed to work in a vacuum chamber.

Meet us in Germany in Stuttgart on June 5th, 6th and 7th for the Automotive Testing Expo Europe 2018.
We will be presenting in particular the speed increasers we design for formula 1 with the ERS systems: MGU-K (formerly KERS) and MGU-H.
We will also tell you more about our T-shape gearboxes. They allow to similate axle loads and are mainly used on engine test benches.
Our team will be at the booth number 1054 to answer all your questions about our products and help you in your projects.
In the meantime feel free to ask your questions online with this form or by calling us at this number +33 (0)4 72 14 69 00.
