Right-angle servo gearbox

Compared to other variants, the new one-stage version enables a higher output speed. The gear ratio range has been extended on both the low and high ends for all variants, so customers benefit from receive precise, low-backlash and maintenance-free solutions for highly dynamic requirements.

With their robust bearings and high-quality gearing, KS gearboxes are extremely durable making them suitable for continuous operation, even at high speeds. This series also features very high torsional stiffness. The new one-stage version is available in ratios 2 and 4.

Martin Preece, head of UK Subsidiary for STOBER, says: “By combining the KS right-angle servo gearbox with compact STOBER planetary gearboxes, it can be further expanded into multi-stage gearboxes with ratios from 6 to 400. This more than doubles the previous gear ratio range we have been able to offer so it covers an even wider range of applications.

“The new solution is also robust, rigid and low backlash making it suitable for dynamic requirements. We have also standardised the type of designation and adapted the design of the right-angle servo gearbox to the new, round shape of our planetary gearboxes.

“Just as with the two- and three-stage versions, designers can choose between three shaft designs,” he adds.

Thanks to these customised output geometries, KS gearboxes can be used for a variety of applications. The two- and three-stage gearboxes can be combined with various STOBER motors via direct attachment. The space-saving drive ensures operators benefit from less weight in addition to high torque and the resulting increased power density. Because the mass moment of inertia of the gearbox is lower due to the absence of the motor adapter, users can take advantage of the full dynamics of the drive.
