Straight-cut teeth keep the cost lower than helical, though the noise floor is slightly higher — here it's rated 58 dB at 1 m no-load, quiet enough for indoor conveyor or packaging lines where operators work nearby. Continuous output torque is 28 N.m at 100 rpm; the maximum intermittent torque reaches 45 N.m at the same speed. The continuous figure is the one to size against for sustained positioning or conveying duty — exceeding it raises the gear temperature and shortens the 30,000-hour service life. Efficiency is listed at 94 %, which is typical for a single-stage planetary of this ratio. The 6 % loss goes into heat inside the housing; with the black anodized aluminium body and IP54 shaft seal, the gearbox sheds that heat adequately in still air up to 90 °C ambient. ## Sourcing reality — obsolete, no direct successor on record Schneider Electric lists the GBX0600030554F as obsolete. No official successor order code appears in the lifecycle record, so a form-fit-function replacement would require comparing the 60 mm frame diameter, 3:1 ratio, 28 N.m continuous torque, and 16 arc-min backlash against current planetary gearbox lines from the same or alternate manufacturers. ## Mechanical limits that govern the installation The output shaft accepts a maximum axial force of 450 N and a maximum radial force of 340 N, both at 100 rpm and rated for the full 30,000-hour life. At higher speeds or shorter life targets, these limits increase — the 10,000-hour rating allows 600 N axial and 500 N radial at the same speed. Torsional rigidity is 2.3 N.m/arcmin, meaning the shaft twists 1 arc-minute for every 2.3 N.m of applied torque. Combined with the 16 arc-min maximum backlash, this gearbox suits general positioning but not high-accuracy indexing where cumulative windup matters. The housing is black anodized aluminium, shaft material is C45 carbon steel. Lubricated for life — no oil changes or regreasing intervals, which simplifies maintenance on sealed axes.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0600030554F Planetary Gearbox, 3:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0600030554F planetary gearbox, 60 mm frame, 3:1 ratio, 28 N.m continuous torque, 94% efficiency, 58 dB noise level.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Obsolete","categoryPath":["Gear Reducers & Gearboxes"],"specifications":{"Efficiency":"94 %","Noise level":"58 dB 1 m, no-load","Gear box type":"Straight teeth","Housing Colour":"Black","Shaft material":"C 45","Reduction ratio":"3:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"2.3 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"398.3 lbf.in (45 N.m) 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Nbr. of units in pkg.":"1","Service life in hours":"30000 h 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Additional information":"Lubricated for life","Maximum axial force Fa":"450 N 100 rpm, during 30000 hour at 30°C 600 N 100 rpm, during 10000 hour at 30°C","IP Degree of Protection":"Shaft output IP54","Maximum radial force Fr":"340 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 30000 hour at 30 °C 500 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 10000 hour at 30 °C","Continuous output torque":"247.8 lbf.in (28 N.m) 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Gearbox external diameter":"2.4 in (60 mm)","Product or Component Type":"Planetary gearbox","Maximum torsional backlash":"16 arc.min","Ambient Temperature For Operation":"-13...194 °F (-25...90 °C)"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/eda2497c8ed03861c618001096b89b79.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/us/en/product/GBX0600030554F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-60-mm-reduction-31-16arcmin-28-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX0600030554F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the continuous torque rating of GBX0600030554F?","answer":"The continuous output torque is 28 N.m at 100 rpm.
