GAM Introduces New Low-Cost, In-line Planetary Gear Box Designed to Replace Spur Gear Boxes
Chicago, IL USA - The new Ultra-Low Cost In-line (UPL) gear box from GAM is a planetary gear box that offers significantly better performance than a spur gear box, but is comparably priced. The UPL offers low backlash, <15 arcmin, which is 4 20 times better than spur gear boxes.
The UPL series is ideal for applications where low-cost synchronous or stepper motors are used. Previously, relatively low-quality and low-performance spur gear boxes were paired with these low-cost motors. GAM's new UPL series presents a new alternative to improve performance without a significant change in cost.
The UPL features a fixed input for quick and easy mounting to standard NEMA 23, 34 or 42 motors. Ratios up to 100:1 are available. The UPL is rated for 10,000 hours.
