Planetary Gearbox Advantages

High Efficiency, Compact Size, Low Backlash

A planetary geared motor, also known as an epicyclic gear motor, distributes load across multiple planet gears for higher torque capacity in a smaller envelope. This makes it ideal for high torque planetary gear motor applications where space and precision matter.

  • Up to 96% single-stage efficiency with low heat generation
  • Coaxial input/output for compact, inline installation
  • Backlash as low as 15 arcmin for precision positioning

Quick Answers

Planetary Gear Motor FAQ For Buyers And Engineers.

Common questions about planetary gear motors, available ratios and matched BLDC motor sets answered for faster sourcing decisions.

What is a planetary gear motor?

A planetary gear motor, also called an epicyclic gear motor, pairs a motor with a planetary gearbox that uses sun, planet and ring gears to deliver high torque in a compact, coaxial package with high efficiency and low backlash.

What gear ratios are available?

Shenghe PF/PL/AB series planetary gearboxes offer single-stage ratios of 4, 5 and 10, with two-stage combinations for higher reduction. Custom ratios are available depending on size and application.

Can I get a BLDC motor with planetary gearbox as a set?

Yes. Shenghe supplies matched brushless planetary gear motor sets where the BLDC motor and planetary gearbox are selected, assembled and tested together for optimized performance and simplified OEM procurement.
