Usual applications for these reducers include precision rotary axis drives, traveling gantries & columns, materials handling axis drives and electronic line shafting. Industries served include Material Managing, Automation, Aerospace, Machine Tool and Robotics.
The servo gearboxes PT complete the whole selection of our servo gearboxes that contain high-end planetary gearboxes, right angle gearboxes, hypoid gearboxes, cycloid gearboxes in addition to various combinations thereof. All common servo motors could be quickly set up with all sizes of our gearboxes. Our PT servo planetary gearboxes ensure high stiffness and dependable transmission through their particular design. All ring gears, planet gears and servo worm reducer sunlight pinions are case – hardened and ground. This gives a superb transmission quality and allows for precise positioning tasks.
They can be purchased in nine sizes with decrease ratios from 3:1 to 600:1 and result torque capacities up to 16,227 lb.ft. The output could be provided with a good shaft or ISO 9409-1 flange, for installation to rotary or indexing tables, pinion gears, pulleys or other drive components without the need for a coupling. For high precision applications, backlash amounts down to 1 arc-minute are available. Right-angle and input shaft versions of these reducers are also offered.
Some planetary-geared servo-motors offer additional options. For instance, oil-circulation lubrication and cooling lets units operate continuously at up to 3 x the nominal torque and power ranking. Oil-cooling also keeps the actuator awesome in high-temperature environments. Various other options include explosionproof styles, alternative components and coatings, customized shafts, nonstandard electric motor voltages such as for example 24 or 48 Vdc, special feedback devices, and special electrical connectors to use with most amplifiers.
This standard selection of Precision Planetary Reducers are perfect for use in applications that demand high performance, precise positioning and repeatability. These were specifically developed for use with state-of-the-art servo engine technology, providing limited integration of the engine to the unit. Style features include installation any servo motors (IEC, NEMA, or customized motors), regular low backlash, high torsional 
stiffness, 95 to 97% efficiency and calm running.
Fewer components also offer compact packaging compared to bolt-on reducers. Bolt-on gear-heads often use right-angle gears to reduce the space a reducer extends beyond a machine. Right-angle gears, however, require yet another set of bevel gears to help make the convert. These gears increase the solution’s size, price, complexity, and total backlash since another mechanism is placed between the load and the motor. Usage of beveled gears defeats the advantage of a planetary gearhead altogether.
