Gearbox Characteristics

ISL Products | June 25, 2011 in Design Notes | Comments (1)

Our gearboxes have been designed for optimum performance and for

maximum life under normal operating conditions.

Their main characteristic is the capacity to withstand maximum design

torque with continuous duty.

The range of gearboxes shown in this catalogue can operate with

maximum torque of 0.5 to 6 N.m for long time periods. All values

previously stated are for standard products in normal operating

conditions, as specified.

In certain cases, these values may be increased if a shorter life is

required.

Please consult our Sales Office for further information.

Every gearbox has a torque limit, which is

the breaking torque.

If this torque is applied to the gearbox, it will cause severe damage.

The following diagram shows the major elements of a gearbox:
