Common applications for these reducers include precision rotary axis drives, traveling gantries & columns, material handling axis drives and digital line shafting. Industries served include Material Handling, Automation, Aerospace, Machine Tool and Robotics.
The servo gearboxes PT complete the whole range of our servo gearboxes 
that contain high-end planetary gearboxes, right angle gearboxes, hypoid gearboxes, cycloid gearboxes along with various combinations thereof. All common servo motors can be very easily set up with all sizes of our gearboxes. Our PT servo planetary gearboxes ensure high stiffness and dependable transmission through their particular design. All band gears, world gears and sun pinions are case – hardened and ground. This provides an outstanding transmission quality and permits precise positioning tasks.
They are available in nine sizes with decrease ratios from 3:1 to 600:1 and output torque capacities up to 16,227 lb.ft. The output can be provided with a solid shaft or ISO 9409-1 flange, for installation to rotary or indexing tables, pinion gears, pulleys or other drive elements with no need for a coupling. For high precision applications, backlash amounts down to 1 arc-minute can be found. Right-angle and input shaft versions of these reducers are also available.
Some planetary-geared servo-motors offer additional options. For example, oil-movement lubrication and cooling lets products operate constantly at up to 3 x the nominal torque and power rating. Oil-cooling also keeps the actuator great in high-temperature environments. Additional options include explosionproof styles, alternative components and coatings, custom shafts, nonstandard engine voltages such as for example 24 or 48 Vdc, special feedback gadgets, and special electrical connectors to use with most amplifiers.
This standard range of Precision Planetary Reducers are perfect for use in applications that demand powerful, precise positioning and repeatability. These were specifically developed for use with state-of-the-art servo engine technology, providing tight integration of the engine to the unit. Design features include mounting any servo motors (IEC, NEMA, or personalized motors), standard low backlash, high torsional stiffness, 95 to 97% efficiency and calm running.
Fewer parts also offer small packaging in comparison to bolt-on reducers. Bolt-on gear-heads servo worm reducer regularly use right-position gears to reduce the space a reducer extends beyond a machine. Right-angle gears, however, require yet another set of bevel gears to make the convert. These gears boost the solution’s size, price, complexity, and total backlash since another system is placed between your load and the electric motor. Use of beveled gears defeats the benefit of a planetary gearhead entirely.
