The high-end economy lines GSN & GFE combine high performance with economic efficiency: both lines are also built with helical ground gears, ensuring the very least noise level and smooth running. The entire needle bearing offers been especially made to reach high torques that defeat the competition for systems of the same size. All planetary carriers are manufactured as a cage made from solid material. This increases tranquil operating characteristics while at the same time improving positioning accuracy and reducing backlash. An additional shaft sealing ring ensures maximum dirt and splash water protection in accordance with protection course IP65 in all lines.
One way to reduce backlash is by using precision gears. The focus on production in precision gears can be tighter tolerances, so all over the gear is a tighter, more exact fit. And the tighter match means much less play in the gear teeth, which is the trigger of backlash to begin with. Of training course, precision gears are more costly, if the application calls for high accuracy, then precision gearing could be the way to go.
From a gear design perspective, a simple way to lessen backlash is to make sure one’s teeth mesh tightly together. That is typically done by shortening the center distance between gears. For pre-loading, this is often done using a spring mechanism to carry the gears firmly in place. This also eliminates the play between your gear teeth and thus eliminates backlash.
Of course, the kind of gears used can also have a large impact on the quantity of backlash. So for instance, some equipment types such as stress wave gears, or harmonic equipment drives, possess zero backlash.

The GSD, GSB & GSBL high-end gearbox lines are constructed in a space-optimized, two-stage design. Because of the lower torque values, the input stage is definitely dimensionally smaller compared to the output stage. Its short style makes the GSD line the perfect high-end gearbox for space restricted applications. The low standard backlash of the GSD line makes it an ideal fit for highly dynamic applications where highest positioning and velocity accuracy is required. The flange output creates highest torsional rigidity. For the lodging of especially high axial loads, taper roller bearings are elective in sizes with 90 mm diameter or higher. The GSB line stands for high performance in mixture with low backlash and high precision. Its robust, one-piece housing permits a high gearbox rigidity and the absorption of high radial and axial loads. The angular gearboxes of the GSBL range provide same advantages as the GSB series; the right angle form makes the GSBL series an ideal match for all dynamic applications where space is bound.
