FAULHABER is introducing powerful power transmission technology to the market with the 20/1R planetary gearhead. A diameter of 20 mm allows the stainless steel gearhead to achieve continuous torque of 800 mNm, and up to 1100 mNm for short periods during interval operation.

The product’s power output is said to be triple that of previous models, while the input speed reaches 12,000 rpm. The product can be combined with DC, brushless and stepper motors with a diameter of 17 to 22 mm. The gearhead’s output shaft has no axial play due to the pretensioned ball bearing.

The device is available with one to five stages, and the span of the 16 possible reduction gear ratios ranges from 3.71:1 to 1526:1. There is also a choice between the normal temperature range of -10 to +125°C and a low-temperature variant with -45 to +100°C. The typical temperature range for planetary gearheads made from metal is therefore extended considerably.

Numerous product variants, including an autoclavable version, make it easy to adapt to different applications. The connection of the planetary gearhead is compatible with its predecessor, the 20/1. When upgrading, the previous gearhead can be replaced with the later model without further changes.
