STOBER Applications in the Food Industry
STOBER’s Stainless Steel cLEAN System
cLEAN System has zero weep holes, meaning water cannot get into the motor. This eliminates premature failure due to water ingress.
STOBER doesn’t just talk about being the World’s Toughest System – the claim is backed by the industry-leading warranty customers expect from STOBER. Gearbox, motor, drive, and cable are all covered with a three-year warranty.
Most NEMA motors are 85.3% efficiency. The cLEAN Motor is over 93% efficient, savings thousands of dollars in energy expenditures.

– Dave Vance, Sales Manager Red Meat Division
“For more than 20 years, Quantum Technical has relied on STOBER to provide gearboxes that are efficient, run cool and last for years in harsh washdown environments. When a customer was looking to run faster than the machine was designed for, STOBER recommended the new servo geared motor. It was a drop in replacement for the STOBER/3rd party motor combination, required no assembly from motor to gearbox and worked with the existing Rockwell drive and delivered higher speed and more torque. We are now using this geared motor on all future versions of this machine.”
– John Miller, Service Manager
“We were operating on a tight timeline and knew we had a real problem when we opened the gearbox packaging and realized we had ordered the wrong ones. Everyone at STOBER genuinely wanted to solve the problem and support us. They brought in an overtime crew, and we had replacement gearboxes in 2 days – a day faster than we believed possible. Unlike some other companies we work with, they were focused on solving our problem and not just following some predetermined process that would have delayed getting what we needed out the door.”
– Robert Reiser, President
