Types and Variants of Our Planetary Gearboxes

The precise design of the gear geometry determines the smooth operation and energy efficiency of your system. We manufacture your drive components based on validated technical specifications, with housing diameters ranging from Ø 35 mm to Ø 300 mm, peak torques of up to 8,000 Nm, and mechanical efficiencies of up to 96%. Through the targeted use of hardened case-hardened steels and high-quality quenched and tempered steels, we tailor the units precisely to your motion sequences

Single-stage planetary gearboxes - High power density with a compact design

Single-stage planetary gearboxes are particularly well-suited for applications involving high speeds and low gear ratios. Thanks to their compact design with only one gear stage, they enable efficient power transmission with high efficiency.
Thanks to their space-saving design, single-stage planetary gearboxes can be integrated even into confined installation spaces and are used wherever a cost-effective and high-performance drive solution is required.
Technical Specifications & Parameters:
  • Gear ratio: custom, up to i=18
  • Rated power: up to 30 kW
  • Input speed: up to 8,000 min⁻¹
  • Gear efficiency: approx. 96%
  • Gear teeth: straight and helical (module 0.4-4)
  • Materials: primarily quenched and tempered or case-hardened steels
  • Applications: Material handling, professional tools, medical technology, building services, electric mobility, process engineering, and food processing

Multi-stage planetary gearboxes - High gear ratios for demanding applications

Multi-stage planetary gearboxes are particularly well-suited for applications that require high gear ratios and high torques. By combining multiple planetary stages, high gear ratios can be achieved without sacrificing the compact design and high efficiency of a planetary gearbox.
Depending on the application , the gear ratio, number of stages, and gearing are customized. This results in high-performance, durable planetary gearboxes for demanding industrial applications.
Technical Specifications & Parameters:
  • Gear ratio: custom, up to i=13,000
  • Rated power: up to 30 kW
  • Input speed: up to 8,000 min⁻¹
  • Gear efficiency: approx. 94%
  • Gear teeth: straight and helical (module 0.4-4)
  • Materials: primarily quenched and tempered or case-hardened steels
  • Applications: Material handling, professional tools, medical technology, building services, electromobility, process engineering, and food processing
