Gearboxes
The GBX servo gearbox family has been designed for direct attachment to servomotors. It is a high precision low backlash servo gearbox for industrial automation applications.
The GBX-AB-Series and the cost effective GBX-AE-Series are helical planetary gearboxes. They are designed for continuous (S1) or cyclic (S5) duty operation. Both the GBX-AB and GBX-AE families have inline shaft and right angle models.

Fundamental Planetary Design:
The power is transmitted from the motor to sun gear. The sun gear drives three planet gears, which are contained within an internal toothed ring gear. The planet gears are mounted on the planet carrier with double wall supports. The planet carrier is part output shaft. When the sun gear rotates, it drives the three planet gears inside the ring gear, and as the planet gears rotate automatically the output shaft rotates.
Due to the load sharing into multiple tooth contacts, the planetary gearbox (sometimes referred to as gear heads) provides the highest torque and stiffness for a given envelope. The other significant advantages are simple and efficient lubrication and a balanced system at high speeds. The balanced planetary kinematics and the associated load sharing make planetary-type gearboxes ideal for servo applications.
