Planetary Gearbox Benefits
- Wide Reduction Ratios – Due to the design characteristics planetary gearboxes can achieve high efficiency and wide ratio in multiple stage combination.
- Compact Design – Small Size but with high torque output due to the load sharing of the planet gears.
- High Efficiency Output – Our planetary gears offer output efficiencies of up to 97%
- Different Lubrication Options – Within the planetary gear series either oil or grease may be used to deliver lubrication throughout the system.

Planetary Gearbox Special Features
Due to the nature of the design, the planetary gear system excels at load distribution. Whereas in a traditional gear system it relies upon the movement and transmission between small and large gears, this is not the case in the planetary gear system.
In the planetary gear system the load is distributed throughout the planet gears. In this way issues such as broken gear teeth which occur in traditional systems when under heavy loading, do not occur frequently within a planetary gear set.
