Gearmotors and Gearboxes
Planetary gearboxes (PLG) have the highest continuous torque capacity of all types of gearbox; at the same time they have a very compact design, low weight and excellent gear efficiency of typically 97%. For our planetary gearboxes there are, depending on customer requirements, a variety of different materials combinable, whereby continuous torques reach up to 130 Nm, and ratios from 4:1 to 512:1 are available. The planetary gearboxes are maintenance-free. The construction sizes are partly available to different degrees:
- EP:Durable l smooth running l all duty cycles
- HT:High power density l extra robust l all duty cycles l IP 65. Gearbox body up to IP 65. Then the drive shaft has got IP 52 and gets heightened up to a better protection class by the customer if necessary.
- LB:Low backlash l very high lifetime l IP 54 standard including shaft
