U.S ManufacturingGAM GPL Gearbox: Direct Drive Motor Performance at a Significantly Lower Cost
Conventional thinking is… “Direct drive motors are the premier solution for precision motion control with a direct connection that eliminates the gearbox.”
GAM's revolutionary GPL zero-backlash planetary gearbox throws that out the window!
So the new thinking can be…"I can get a gearbox and motor with the same performance as a direct drive motor at a significant savings!"
When you replace a direct drive motor with a GPL gearbox and your servo motor, you get a solution that...
- Matches the direct drive motor in fit and performance
- Allows you to use your preferred servo motor
- Offers significant savings over direct drive motors
- Outperforms all other zero-backlash gearboxes on the market
The GPL is a game changer in other ways too. The GPL…
- Provides smooth path control, positioning, and repeatability
- Maintains <6 arcsec backlash for the life of the gearbox
- Best-in-the-market torsional rigidity for ≤ 0.6 arcmin lost motion
- Reduces maintenance costs with 20,000 hours of life, no adjustment necessary
GAM’s GPL Planetary Gear Reducer: The New Standard in High Precision
Application Story
A GAM customer had an application requiring multiple configurations, zero-backlash, and a shrink disc connection. Their current solution used multiple sizes of direct drive motors and had a problem with water ingress.
