The 96 % efficiency means the power loss through the stage is low — for a 400 W servo motor, you lose about 16 W in the gearbox, which the anodised aluminium housing sinks without forced cooling in most panel-mount positions. The 20 arc-min maximum torsional backlash classifies this as a standard-precision gearbox — adequate for positioning conveyors, indexing tables, and pick-and-place gantries where the repeatability requirement is under 0.5 mm. For a 60 mm output shaft, 20 arc-min translates to roughly 0.17 mm tangential play at a 150 mm radius. Rated service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient — that is about 3.4 years of continuous 24/7 operation. The axial and radial force limits drop sharply when you push beyond the 30,000-hour target: 450 N axial at 30,000 hours versus 600 N at 10,000 hours. For a belt-drive or rack-and-pinion load, the radial force at the shaft midpoint is the binding constraint. ## Obsolete — sourcing through independent channels Schneider Electric lists the GBX0600040583D as obsolete. ## Mounting and integration notes The gearbox mounts in any position — horizontal, vertical, or inverted — because it is lubricated for life with no oil-level dependency. The IP54 rating at the shaft output means it resists dust ingress and splashing water, but it is not rated for washdown or hose-down environments. The C 45 steel shaft handles the 61 N.m peak torque without yield, but the torsional rigidity of 2.3 N.m/arcmin means the shaft twists about 0.43° under full peak load — negligible for most positioning tasks but worth modelling if the load inertia is high and the cycle time is tight. The 0.093 g.cm² moment of inertia reflected to the motor side is very low — a 400 W servo with a rotor inertia around 100 g.cm² sees a 1:1 reflected load ratio at the 4:1 reduction, which keeps the servo tuning stable without a large inertia mismatch.","metaTitle":"Schneider GBX0600040583D Planetary Gearbox, 4:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0600040583D planetary gearbox, obsolete. 4:1 reduction, 38 N.m continuous output torque, 96 % efficiency.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Obsolete","categoryPath":["Gear Reducers & Gearboxes"],"specifications":{"Efficiency":"96 %","Noise level":"58 dB at 1 m, no-load","Gear box type":"Straight teeth","Housing colour":"Black","Shaft material":"C 45","Reduction ratio":"4:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Moment Of Inertia":"0.093 g.cm²","Mounting position":"Any position","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"2.3 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"61 N.m","Service life in hours":"30000 h at 100 rpm at 30 °C","Additional information":"Lubricated for life","Maximum axial force Fa":"450 N at 100 rpm, during 30000 hour at 30°C 600 N at 100 rpm, during 10000 hour at 30°C","IP degree of protection":"Shaft output: IP54","Maximum radial force Fr":"340 N at 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 30000 hour at 30 °C 500 N at 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 10000 hour at 30 °C","Continuous output torque":"38 N.m","Gearbox external diameter":"60 mm","Product or component type":"Planetary gearbox","Maximum torsional backlash":"20 arc.min","Ambient Temperature For Operation":"-25...90 °C"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/21226ada722271b4ade3b5c1edbb0e5b.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/nl/en/product/GBX0600040583D/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-60-mm-reduction-41-20arcmin-38-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX0600040583D/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the continuous output torque of GBX0600040583D?","answer":"38 N.m continuous, with a peak of 61 N.m.
