The APEX servo gearbox has been designed for direct attachment to popular servomotors. The power is transmitted from the motor to sun gear. The sun gear drives three planet gears, which are contained within an internal toothed ring gear. The planet gears are mounted on the planet carrier with double wall supports. The planet carrier is part output shaft. So when the sun gear rotates, it drives the three planet gears inside the ring gear. As planet gears rotate with carries and automatically the output shaft rotates.

Due to the load sharing into multiple tooth contacts, the planetary gearbox provides the highest torque and stiffness for a given envelope. The other significant advantages are simple and efficient lubrication and a balanced system at high speeds. The balanced planetary kinematics and the associated load sharing makes the planetary-type gearbox truly ideal for servo applications.

True Planetary Gearheads

Planetary gearheads are used on high precision motion control applications which require a high torque to volume ratio, high torsional stiffness, and low backlash.
Thomson has combined the positive attributes of gear crowning and helical gearing with planetary construction to create the smoothest operating gearhead on the market, the UltraTRUE™ True Planetary Gearheads. Danaher Motion offers these precision planetary gearheads for all duty cycles, and all with RediMount compliant mounting systems.

Let Thomson Help You Make Your Selection!

Micron MOTIONEERING®, Thomson’s gearhead sizing, selection, and pricing tool can help you size gearheads to high precision motion control applications which require a high torque to volume ratio, high torsional stiffness, and low backlash.

ValueTRUE™

ValueTRUE™ is the new low cost, high performance addition to the complete line of Micron True Planetary Gearheads, the largest selection of planetary gearheads in the world.Learn More >

UltraTRUE™

The UltraTRUE™ is a helical crowned True Planetary gearhead. The internal gear is cut directly into the stainless steel housing to increase torque capacity and avoid slippage. The Helical cut of the gears provides higher torque capacity, precision and stiffness when compared to straight cut gears. The UltraTRUE™ has many ratios in stock and available for immediate delivery though the Micron Gearhead Express program.Learn More >

EverTrue™

The EverTRUE is a True Planetary, RediMount compliant gearhead that is designed to run in a continuous duty cycle. This Continuous Duty gearhead is lubricated for life and rated to last a minimum of 30,000 hours in a 24 hour/day, 7 day/week application.Learn More >

DuraTRUE™

The DuraTRUE is a high precision, True Planetary gearhead that utilizes the Micron RediMount system. The DuraTRUE has many ratios in stock for immediate delivery through the Micron Gearhead Express program.Learn More >

NemaTRUE™
