Mechanical Power Transmission

Coaxial-Drive Planetary Gearhead offers low-noise operation.

Featuring OD of 32 mm, Koaxdrive KD 32 combines worm and planetary gearing, with worm-formed motor pinion driving 3 offset planetary wheels interlocking with internal gear. Plastic planetary wheels allow for minimized noise and coupling element is assembled on motor side so shaft is not subjected to axial load. Many reduction ratios are available in 11:1 to 1091:1 range and gearhead provides...
