Planetary Gearbox
What is a Planetary Gearbox?
A Planetary Gearbox, also known as an epicyclic gearbox, is a high-precision gear system that offers exceptional torque density, compact design, and high efficiency. It consists of a central sun gear, planet gears that rotate around the sun gear, and an outer ring gear, all working together to transmit power smoothly. This configuration allows for various speed reductions and torque multiplication in a small footprint, making it ideal for applications in robotics, automotive systems, industrial machinery, and renewable energy.
Key Advantages of Planetary Gearboxes
- High Torque Density: Delivers more torque relative to size compared to other gear types.
- Compact Design: The concentric arrangement reduces space requirements.
- High Efficiency: Minimal power loss due to balanced load distribution among planets.
- Low Noise and Vibration: Smooth operation with reduced backlash.
- Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of applications and customizable ratios.

Planetary Gearbox FAQ
Q: What is the main benefit of using a planetary gearbox over other types?
A: The primary advantage is its high torque-to-size ratio, allowing for compact designs that deliver powerful performance in limited spaces, along with excellent efficiency and load distribution.
Q: How do I select the right gear ratio for my application?
A: Consider the required output speed and torque. A higher ratio provides more torque but lower speed, while a lower ratio offers higher speed with less torque. Consult our technical team for specific needs based on input power and load conditions.
Q: What maintenance is required for a planetary gearbox?
A: Regular lubrication checks are essential; typically, oil changes are needed every 5,000 to 10,000 operating hours. Inspect for wear, noise, or leakage, and ensure proper alignment to extend lifespan.
Q: Can planetary gearboxes handle high shock loads?
A: Yes, they are designed to distribute loads evenly across multiple planet gears, making them robust against shock and varying loads. However, always check the rated torque and peak load specifications for your model.
Q: Are custom planetary gearboxes available?
A: Absolutely. We offer customization in ratios, materials, sizes, and mounting options to meet unique application requirements. Provide details like input/output specs and environmental conditions for a tailored solution.
Q: What is backlash, and why is it important?
A: Backlash is the slight movement between gears when direction changes. Low backlash (<5 arcmin) is crucial for precision applications like robotics to ensure accurate positioning and reduce vibration.
Q: How does temperature affect planetary gearbox performance?
A: Extreme temperatures can impact lubrication viscosity and material expansion. Our gearboxes are rated for -20°C to 120°C, but for outside this range, special lubricants or materials may be needed.
Q: What industries commonly use planetary gearboxes?
A: They are prevalent in automotive, robotics, industrial automation, renewable energy, aerospace, and medical devices due to their efficiency, compactness, and reliability.
