Correct angle gearboxes (worm and planetary) are tough and built for 90° turns. Inline reducers (parallel shaft and planetary) are a perfect match for motors with high input speeds, or when gearmotor effectiveness is important. Contact our technical sales personnel for help identifying which gearbox remedy is best for you.
RIGHT ANGLE REDUCERS
WORM GEAR REDUCER
Groschopp’s worm equipment reducers were created with a hollow bore and invite for a corner convert with optional dual output. The reducers come in 12 ratios which range from 5:1 to 100:1, with non-back-drivable ratios 30:1 and higher. Our correct angle gearboxes were created with five mounting choices providing versatility when incorporating the reducer into item.
RIGHT ANGLE BEVEL GEARBOX
bevel-right-angle-gearbox
The right angle bevel gearbox combines the features of our correct angle worm and planetary inline reducers. With a solid and efficient right angle configuration, our right angle planetary gearboxes provide a robust solution. The proper angle bevel gearbox will come in 18 ratios which range from 5:1 to 1000:1, and it is back-drivable at all ratios.
INLINE REDUCERS
I-SERIES PLANETARY GEARBOX
i-series-planetary-gearbox
Our I-Series small planetary gearbox configurations provide the smallest footprint and quietest procedure of our acceleration reducers. These gearboxes are created to handle varying loads with small backlash. With body sizes 52cm, 62cm, and 81cm, 12 ratios which range from 5:1 to 308:1, we’ve a solution to suit your needs. Our 52 frame size can be available with plastic material gears for noise-sensitive applications.
INLINE PLANETARY GEARBOX

There are three main elements in a planetary gearbox: sunlight gear, the planet gears and the ring gear. The gears are mounted on the planet carrier which has teeth on the inside, which may be the ring gear.
Planetary Reducer & Gearmotor
Planetary Gearbox – DieQua Corporation
Planetary gearboxes can easily produce many different reduction ratios due to the different planet gears that revolve around sunlight gear. Planetary gearboxes are constructed of heavy duty metal such as for example steel and are in a position to handle large shock loads well. Nevertheless, different planetary gearboxes are made for specific speed, load and torque capacities. The predominant use for planetary gearboxes is certainly in automobiles with automated transmissions. Unlike manual tranny, in which the operator is responsible for switching gears, automobiles which have automatic transmissions use clutches, brake bands and planetary gearboxes to change the inputs and outputs, thereby adjusting the speeds appropriately.
An automatic transmitting contains two complete planetary gearsets placed together into one element. Planetary gearboxes are also found in electrical screwdrivers, sprinklers and applications that require large or multiple reductions from a compact mechanism. Planetary gearboxes are one of many variations of rate reducers and it is essential that the proper mechanism can be used. Gearboxes may even be combined to produce the desired outcomes and the most common kinds are helical equipment reducers, worm gear reducers and inline equipment reducers.
Planetary gearboxes gain their advantages through their design. The sun gear’s central position allows the earth gears to rotate in the same path and for the band gear (the edge of the planet carrier) to turn the same way as the sun gear. In a few arrangements sunlight gear can simultaneously convert all the planets because they also engage the ring gear. The three components may be the input, the output or held stationary, which results in many different reduction ratio options.
In many planetary gearboxes one element is held stationary with another component serving as the input and the other as output. The reduction ratios for planetary gearboxes are dependent upon the number of tooth in the gears and what components are engaged. Generally, the load ability and torque boosts with the number of planets in the system because the load is certainly distributed among the gears and there can be low energy waste; planetary gearboxes are extremely efficient, averaging between 96 and 98%. The look is complex, however, and difficult to gain access to for repairs or maintenance.
Axial or Inline gearboxes refer to this kind of types as Helical, Shaft mounted, or planetary styles.
These gearboxes are very common choices for most industrial applications due to their robust nature, high permissible radial forces, closely stepped ratios and low backlash.
Helical gearboxes can typically be found in applications requiring high permissible radial force, stepped ratios and low backlash.
Shaft-mounted or otherwise known as Parallel shaft gearboxes offer an inline option with a versatile and space saving foot print. This is actually the only inline gearbox edition with the choice of a hollow result shaft.
Planetary gearboxes are usually chosen for high tech, high torque, high speed applications requiring severe accuracy.
