Bell hammer mounting drive
The stroke of a bell is done in the same way since 400 years: The bell hammer
is lifted up and by the force of its own weight falls onto the bell and effects
the bell stroke. In this manner a harmonic, soft and full tone is assured.
Rauscher bell hammer mounting drives are the perfect solution for the operation
of hour- and quarter-hour bell hammers for the bells of just about any size.
To assure the smooth and failure free mounting of bell hammers for bells up
to 5000 kg, gear box as well as mounting device come with built-in ball
bearings. As all Rauscher products Rauscher bell mounting drives are conceived
to guarantee a fault-free operation over decades.
Striking drive
The stroke drive is individually crafted for each bell and bell cage.
Particular focus is put on the weight relationship between striking
hammer and bell. The precision customization assures that the hammer
strikes the bell in a way the optimal sound can be obtained while abrasive
forces on the rim are minimized.
Magnet Striking Drive
Originally coming from chime works, Magnet Striking Drives are gaining in
importance. Any constellation and specification can be delivered by the
Rauscher Tower Clock Manufactory.
