5 signs that indicate that your application needs a planetary gear

5 oznak, które wskazują, że Twoja aplikacja potrzebuje przekładni planetarnej

When designing the servo system, the appropriate gear is crucial for optimization of performance, efficiency and durability. The gears transfer and transform the torques, speeds and directions of rotation, as well as strength, thus define the speed or time of the cycle.Przy tak wielu dostępnych opcjach przekładni - walcowych, śrubowych, ślimakowych, stożkowych i planetarnych - skąd wiadomo, kiedy przekładnia planetarna jest najlepszym rozwiązaniem?

Briefly with planetary gears

Planetary gears are gears in which one or more wheels do not have a fixed axis of rotation. The Wobit company offers gears of the reputable company Neugart, available in the economic and precise series with a simple, angular and flange.

 Key indicators indicating that planetary gear is the right choice for a given application:

1. You need a high torque in a compact size

planetary gears distribute the load into many planetary gears, which increases the torque density while maintaining a small gear housing. If you need a high torque without taking too much space, the planetary gear is a great solution.

2. The application requires high performance

Compared to other gear options, planetary gears have lower energy losses thanks to highly efficient Drive transmission system. If the application requires maximum performance (e.g. robotics, linear startup and automated machines), planetary gears are an ideal solution.

 3. High precision and low slack

Luz can cause positioning errors in automation systems and traffic control. Many planetary gears offer low slack options, thanks to which they are ideal for CNC machines, robotics and servo applications, in which precision is crucial.

4. You need a durable and solid solution

Due to the sustainable load distribution and durable construction, planetary gears offer high resistance to shocks, torsion rigidity and continuous work options. Thanks to this, they work well in industries such as aviation, heavy machines and renewable energy.

5. A high gear ratio is required without sacrificing compactness

If the application requires a high reduction transmission to match the torque or inertia without excessive volume, multi-stage planetary transmission is an effective solution. Unlike the screw gears, which can be large and inefficient with high gear ratios, planetary systems retain efficiency even with 100: 1 or higher gears.
