What is a Gear Motor?

A gear motor is an integrated device of speed reducer and electric motor, also known as gear reduction motor, it is usually supplied in complete sets after integrated assembly by a professional reducer manufacturer. Working principle The gear reduction motor generally achieves a certain deceleration purpose by driving the large gear through the small gear …

Gear Trains Basics

A gear train is a power transmission system made up of two or more gears. The gear to which the force is first applied is called the driver and the final gear on the train to which the force is transmitted is called the driven gear. Any gears between the driver and the driven gears …

Planetary Gear Heads Basics

Planetary gear heads are used on high precision motion control applications that require high torque to volume ratio (ranging from a factor of two to a factor of 100, depending on the ratio), high torsional stiffness and low backlash the specifics of which will vary by application. Planetary gear heads increase the torque by the factor of the gear head ratio. …

Gearbox 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 with a motor can be used to reduce the speed and increase the torque to meet design parameters. It …

Gear Drives Basics

Gear drives deliver power to industrial equipment such as bulk material conveyors, mixers, pumps and paper mills. The reliability that translates into greater uptime and profitability begins by specifying and selecting the proper drives for these critical applications. Many variables—such as service factor, gear drive rating, thermal capacity, speed variation and drive ratio—must be considered when sizing and selecting a gear drive. In addition, specific drive features may …
