Parvalux exhibits planetary gearheads

A Parvalux Electric Motors product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Nov 27, 2008

Visitors to the Automation show in Nuremberg are being given the chance to examine the first available 60mm samples from Parvalux's line of HP planetary gearheads.

The range has been designed to operate marginally below that of servo specifications, allowing Parvalux to offer a planetary design for a fraction of the cost of a specialised servo-application gearhead.

The range is available in three frames sizes: 42mm, 60mm and 86mm.

The 68 gear ratios in 1-4 stages enable an output speed range of 0.1 to 1000rpm.

They are available as a stand-alone gearbox with a direct-fit or servo-coupling interface; or as a stand-alone 1-4 stage speed reducer.

A polished nickel-plated finish is standard.

Customers can now order samples and prototypes of the HP60, which will be available in quantity in 2009.

The 42mm frame is expected to follow in mid 2009 with the 86mm completing the range by the end of the year.

Parvalux has also released a short-form catalogue outlining 18 recommended gear-motor combinations for the HP60, as well as details of the stand-alone gearbox and speed reducer options.

Key features of the HP60 include: less than 20 arc-min backlash (1 stage); up to 97 per cent efficient (1 stage); 40Nm peak torque (4 stages); max input speed 6000rpm; lifetime of 1,000 hours at full load at rated input speed, rising to 15,000+ hours for low load/speed applications; and IP65 Ingress protection.
