Read all about our Planetary gearboxes

At Rotero, we offer an extensive selection of planetary gearboxes, ranging from inline versions to right-angle versions. The unique design of a planetary gearbox, where multiple gears work together in a planetary configuration, makes it the ideal solution for applications where high precision, efficiency and compact dimensions are of great importance, such as Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and pulley drives.

 

What is a planetary gearbox?

A planetary gearbox is an efficient and precise transmission unit specifically designed for applications where high precision, high torque capacity and compact dimensions are essential. The planetary configuration ensures an even distribution of forces over multiple gears, contributing to the efficiency and longevity of these gearboxes.

 

Types of planetary gearbox

There are various types of planetary gearbox available, each designed for specific applications and requirements. The most common models are the inline versions. These come with different characteristics. The most important features are the material used for the gearbox, the backlash and of course, the available reduction ratios and the associated torque. The right-angle versions are often combined with a bevel gear. There are also versions specifically designed for AGVs  or pulleys. These versions can withstand high radial loads.

The added value of Planetary gearboxes

Planetary gearbox features

Planetary gearboxes are known for their excellent efficiency and high torque. With an efficiency of up to 97%, these gearboxes provide optimal power transmission with minimal energy losses. This makes them suitable for demanding industrial applications where reliability and a long service life are required. Additionally, planetary gearboxes are compact, making them ideal for use with servo or stepper motors.

 

Planetary gearbox applications

Planetary gearboxes are used in a wide range of industrial applications. In the automation sector, they are indispensable for production lines that require precise and dynamic movement. In the packaging industry, planetary gearboxes play an important role, as they ensure fast and accurate handling of products. In medical equipment, they are used due to their compact size and high reliability. Furthermore, planetary gearboxes are applied in pick amp; place systems to improve the speed and precision of dynamic handling processes.
