Precision Planetary Gearboxes

What Is a Precision Planetary Gearbox?

A precision planetary gearbox is a gear reducer that uses a sun gear, multiple planet gears and an internal ring gear to transmit high torque in a compact coaxial design. The load is distributed across multiple planet gears simultaneously, enabling higher torque density, greater efficiency and longer service life than conventional single-gear reducers.

FAQ:

Q: What is the backlash of your planetary gearboxes?

A: Small-to-medium torque models achieve ≤ 1 arcmin. Large-torque heavy-duty models have higher backlash; actual values depend on the selected ratio and torque rating — contact us for model-specific data.

Q: Can you customize the ratio and mounting interface?

A: Yes. Custom ratios, mounting flanges, output shafts and housing materials are available upon request.
