Mastergear Receives Order for Pipeline Between Russia and Germany
Monday, June 1, 2009
The new design of sub-sea gears (patent pending) with
internal, intelligent compensation have been ordered by Galperti Engineering in
Italy. They will be installed in the Nord Stream pipeline at approximately 1000

European Union via the Baltic Sea. It will transport natural gas to supply both

to 200,000 in. lbs (24000Nm).
The new line of sub-sea actuators has been hyperbarically

appearance. This product line is available with manual or ROV inputs with output
torque capabilities up to 1,200,000 in. lbs (140000Nm). More…
