Gearboxes Basics

Using only the motor size and speed analysis can be problematic because most applications require a specific speed and or torque to meet the overall power requirements of the application. To keep the ideal package size, a gearbox can be used to reduce the speed and increase the torque to meet design parameters. The gearbox is …

What are Planetary Gear Motors?

Gearheads are sometimes called “epicycloidal” gearheads because the points on the rotating planets trace epicycloidal curves as they turn. The term “planetary” is also applicable because the rotating action of the entire assembly about the central sun gear mimics the movement of a solar system. Planetary gear trains are being used increasingly as actuators in applications where more torque is …
