High Precision Planetary Gear Boxes

Your Professional High Precision Planetary Gear Boxes Manufacturer!

 

Kunshan Devotec Automation Co., Ltd. was established in 2012, but its origins trace back to an initial investment by the German company WMH HERION in Qingdao, Shandong Province in 2007. Since then, we have accumulated extensive experience in engineering, manufacturing, and quality control. As a specialist in drive technology, Kunshan Devotec Automation focuses on the production of high-precision gear racks, gears, pinions, gearboxes, linear guideways, and other linear transmission components. The company also serves as a partner for several European manufacturers in China, including , Graessner, and Hönger, providing localized sales and after-sales services.

Advantages of High Precision Planetary Gear Boxes
Planetary Gear Reducer With Flange Output
 

Compact Design: Planetary gearboxes are known for their compact and space-saving design. The arrangement of gears in a planetary system allows for high torque transmission in a smaller physical space compared to other gearbox configurations.

 

High Torque Density: Planetary gearboxes provide high torque output relative to their size. This makes them suitable for applications where a high torque is required in a limited space.

 

Efficiency: Planetary gear systems often exhibit high efficiency due to multiple gear engagements, resulting in better power transmission. This efficiency is crucial in many applications, such as automotive and industrial machinery.

 

Versatility: Planetary gearboxes offer versatility in terms of speed reduction or increase, as well as torque multiplication or reduction. This makes them suitable for a wide range of applications, from robotics and automation to wind turbines and aerospace.

 

Precision and Accuracy: Planetary gears are known for their precision and accuracy in maintaining gear meshing. This makes them suitable for applications where precise control of speed and position is critical, such as in robotics and CNC machinery.

 

Shock Load Resistance: The multiple gear contacts in a planetary system help distribute the load, making these gearboxes more resistant to shock loads. This feature is advantageous in applications where sudden changes in load or impact can occur.

 

Low Backlash: Planetary gear systems can be designed with low backlash, providing better positional accuracy. This is particularly important in applications like robotics and automation where precise movement control is essential.

 

High Ratios in a Single Stage: Planetary gearboxes can achieve high gear ratios in a single stage, reducing the need for multiple stages of gearing. This simplifies the design and can lead to a more efficient and reliable system.

 

Quiet Operation: The design of planetary gear systems can result in quieter operation compared to some other types of gearboxes. This is advantageous in applications where noise reduction is a priority.

 

Reliability and Durability: Planetary gearboxes are known for their reliability and durability. The distributed load-carrying capability and robust construction make them suitable for demanding industrial applications.

Components of High Precision Planetary Gear Boxes
 

Sun Gear: Sun gear is located at the center of the assembly and meshes with the teeth of the planet gears. It receives the input for the gear set and is known as the main gear in a planetary gear set.

 

Planet Gears: Planet gear runs with the motion of the sun gear. Planetary gears have one or more planet gears and control the speed of the transmission of power.

 

Ring Gear: The outer ring of a planetary gear system is known as the ring gear. It contains teeth on its internal circumference and is smooth on its outside edge.

 

Carrier: The carrier is portable and rotates with respect to the sun gear. It is associated with the centers of each of the planet gears to give support. The carrier has a shaft for each of the planet gears that surround the sun gear and are surrounded by the ring gear.

 

Spur or Helical Gear: Construction of a planetary gear set can include spur or helical gears. The difference between the two gears is their helix angle, with spur gears having a zero-helix angle while helical gears have a helix angle of 10 to 30 degrees.

FAQ

 

Q: How long is your delivery time?

A: If the item is in stock, it's usually 5-10 days. If the item is not in stock, it's 15-20 days, depending on the quantity.

Q: Do you provide samples? Are they free or additional?

A: Yes, we can provide free samples, but we don't cover the shipping costs.

Q: What is the principle of planetary gearbox?

A: A planetary gearbox works by using a sun gear, planetary gears, and a ring gear to achieve gear reduction and torque multiplication. The sun gear receives the input, driving the surrounding planetary gears that are mounted on a carrier. These planetary gears, while also rotating on their own axes, orbit the sun gear and mesh with the stationary outer ring gear, causing the carrier (and thus the output shaft) to rotate at a slower speed but with increased torque.

Q: Can a planetary gearbox be back-driven?

A: Pretty much every gearbox is back drivable. How back drivable depends on the friction of the gearbox and the reduction ratio. It's easy to backdrive a 1:10 gearbox even if it has more friction than 1:20 gearbox.

Q: What is the ratio of a planetary gearbox?

A: A planetary gearbox's ratio depends on the component held stationary and which shaft is the input and output, resulting in various ratios from one simple gear set. The ratio is calculated using the number of teeth on the ring gear (R) and sun gear (S), with the formula Gear Ratio = (R + S) / S when the sun gear is the input and the carrier is the output and the ring gear is held fixed.

Q: Do planetary gearboxes increase torque?

A: The task of gears is to transmit torques and to change the speed of rotation or the torque between the input and the output. When it is necessary to increase torque, planetary gears are often employed, particularly in the automobile industry. An example is their use in transfer cases in four-wheel-drive vehicles.
