The high-end economy lines GSN & GFE combine high performance with economic efficiency: both lines are also equipped with helical ground gears, ensuring the very least noise level and zero backlash planetary gearbox smooth running. The full needle bearing has been especially made to reach high torques that beat the competition for models of the same size. All planetary carriers are manufactured as a cage created from solid material. This increases tranquil operating characteristics while at the same time improving positioning accuracy and reducing backlash. An additional shaft sealing band ensures maximum dust and splash water protection relative to protection course IP65 in all lines.
One way to reduce backlash is to use precision gears. The focus on production in precision gears is certainly tighter tolerances, so all around the gear is a tighter, more precise match. And the tighter fit means less play in the apparatus teeth, which is the cause of backlash in the first place. Of program, precision gears are more costly, if the application demands high accuracy, after that precision gearing could be the way to go.
From a equipment design perspective, an easy way to reduce backlash is to make sure one’s teeth mesh tightly together. That is typically done by shortening the guts distance between gears. As for pre-loading, this could be done using a spring mechanism to carry the gears firmly set up. This also eliminates the play between the gear teeth and thus eliminates backlash.
Of course, the kind of gears used may also have a huge impact on the quantity of backlash. So for example, some gear types such as strain wave gears, or harmonic gear drives, have zero backlash.
The GSD, GSB & GSBL high-end gearbox lines are constructed in a space-optimized, two-stage design. Because of the lower torque ideals, the input stage is dimensionally smaller compared to the output stage. Its short style makes the GSD series the perfect high-end gearbox for space limited applications. The low regular backlash of the GSD range makes it an ideal fit for highly dynamic applications where highest positioning and swiftness accuracy is necessary. The flange output produces highest torsional rigidity. For the lodging of particularly high axial loads, taper roller bearings are optionally available in sizes with 90 mm diameter or more. The GSB line stands for high performance in mixture with low backlash and high precision. Its robust, one-piece housing allows for a high gearbox rigidity and the absorption of high radial and axial loads. The angular gearboxes of the GSBL series provide same advantages as the GSB range; the right angle form makes the GSBL series an ideal match for all dynamic applications where space is bound.
Incorrect tolerances, bearing misalignment, and manufacturing inconsistencies have a tendency to increase backlash.
AC motors and gear motors include single-stage motors used in combination with a single-phase AC power supply and three-stage motors used with a three-stage AC power. A single-phase motor can be operated by simply connecting it to a single-phase power supply via the supplied capacitor. A three-phase motor will not need a capacitor. All you have to is for connecting the motor directly to a three-stage AC power supply.
The new planetary gearbox series includes the high-end gearbox lines GSD (flange equipment), GSB (inline) and GSBL (angle gear) as well as the high-end economy GSN and GFE lines. Particularly suitable applications for the brand new range are those which place the best demands on positioning accuracy, operating noises, running smoothness, bending rigidity and transmitted torque. The planetary gears are made to meet the highest creation requirements – all lines are equipped with precision floor helical gearing, single-piece planetary carriers and full needle bearings.
