Hansen P4: the industrial gearbox for pulper drives
The Hansen P4 is the perfect industrial gearbox to drive your pulp processing machinery. Head this way for an overview of all its features and product details!
Heavy-duty application requires a dedicated product!
Pieces of paper are as light as a feather, but the machines that make them weigh tonnes and are extremely powerful. Pulpers require robust and heavy-duty components in order to suspend fibres in a way that keeps flakes to a minimum. The Hansen P4 perfectly links the motor and pulper screw to achieve that. The dedicated vertical design makes the high-performance industrial gearbox simply ideal for powering pulpers and mixers. The Hansen P4 is low-maintenance and offers a vast array of practical features.

Pulper industrial gearboxes: optimal performance driven by brand quality
Conventional drive solutions quickly reach their limits in the paper, cardboard and wood handling industry. Pulpers in particular require powerful and durable industrial gearboxes – and this is where the products from the tried-and-tested Hansen P4 range come in. Decades worth of experience and more than 10,000 machines in action at industrial companies are proof of Hansen’s quality and reliability. The Hansen P4 model is specially adapted to applications involving high loads. Designed as a vertical, multistage industrial gearbox, it is the solution for pulpers.
The Hansen P4 harmoniously brings the motor and pulper screw together like never seen before. It is suitable for pulper installations with either a high or low consistency.
The Hansen P4 industrial gearbox – a pulper powerhouse
↓ Fx: Axial Forces Dynamic and static from the impeller weight
→ Fr: Radial Forces Resulting from the impact of paper bales dumped in to the pulper
The foundation should be very strong too to absorb the shock loads
The gear unit of a pulper installation is always located under the pulper vessel and carries the loads of both the pulper screw and the reactional forces of mixing the slurry.
The extremely rigid and durable housing has an unparalleled load-bearing capacity and keeps losses as low as possible.
The Hansen P4 really thinks outside the box. Its proven gear geometry minimises noise and vibrations. In this respect, ingenious design details make the Hansen P4 the ideal pulper gearbox:
- The Hansen P4 is incredibly robust thanks to reinforced bearings and can optimally balance high axial loads.
- The output shaft of the industrial gearbox has an increased diameter and extended bearing span for withstanding the extreme radial loads when used together with pulpers. Special output shaft as per customer design is always possible.
- Symmetrical mounting points around the output shaft evenly distribute the forces. The gearbox also smoothly dissipates pressing forces toward the concentrically arranged mounting feet.
- The gearbox housing offers maximum strength and rigidity to perfectly align the gear structure and ensure balanced bearing loading – meeting even the most stringent performance requirements. This makes our gearboxes withstand easily the impact of falling bales of paper during loading.
Practical features and sophisticated design
The Hansen P4 industrial gearbox keeps its cool, keeps it together and runs like clockwork – throughout its entire service life. Equipped with numerous useful features, it performs outstandingly day in, day out and delivers a level of reliability that engineers and production employees can’t get enough of.
