VF Series 300 Planetary Gear Motor Flange Mount
The Varitron method of motion of a planetary gear structure is different from traditional parallel gears. The planetary speed reducer has six gear contacting surfaces with a larger area that can distribute the loading evenly over 360 degrees. Multiple gear surfaces share the instantaneous impact loading evenly which make them more resistant to the impact from higher torque. The housing and beaning parts will not be damaged and crack due to high loading.
Transmission Principle of Planetary Gear Motor
The transmission structure of the planetary gear motor has the highest geared speed reducer efficiency among all the combinations.Its basic transmission structure includes:
(A) Internal GearRing (B) Sun Gear
(C) Planetary Gear(assembled with the planetary carrier)
The driving power through direct connection or link initiates the sun gear. The sun gear then drives the planetary gears assembled with the external gear ring to operate.The whole set of planetary gear system revolves on its own axis and along the external gear ring where the output shaft connected to the planetary carrier achieves the goal of speed reduction.A higher reduction ratio can be achieved by doubling the multiple staged gears and planetary gears.
