Continuous output torque is 38 N.m, with a peak capability of 61 N.m — the margin between continuous and maximum tells you the thermal ceiling for intermittent overloads. Rated efficiency of 96 % means only 4 % of input power is lost as heat in the gear mesh, which keeps the housing temperature rise predictable in a closed cabinet. ## Load ratings and service life — what the numbers mean for a motion axis Service life is specified at 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient — this is the L10 life under rated load, not a wear-out limit; running at lower torque or speed extends it proportionally. Maximum axial force on the output shaft is 450 N at 100 rpm for the 30,000-hour target, or 600 N if you accept a 10,000-hour service interval — a direct trade-off between load and replacement cycle. Radial force capacity follows the same pattern: 340 N at mid-span for 30,000 hours, 500 N for 10,000 hours — the overhung load from a belt or chain drive must stay within these limits to avoid bearing fatigue. Torsional rigidity of 2.3 N.m/arcmin means the gearbox twists about 0.43 arcmin per N.m of applied torque — relevant for positioning accuracy in a servo axis where windup affects settling time. ## Integration notes — mounting, lubrication, and environmental sealing Mounts in any position — no oil-level restriction — because it is lubricated for life with a sealed grease charge, eliminating the need for a breather or level check during commissioning. Shaft output seal is rated IP54, which keeps out dust and splashing water but is not submersible — suitable for a dry machine frame or a cabinet with occasional coolant mist, not a washdown zone. Housing is black anodized aluminium (60 mm external diameter) with a C 45 steel output shaft — the aluminium body sheds heat faster than cast iron, but the shaft hardness limits repeated disassembly for coupling changes. Ambient temperature range of -25 to 90 °C covers most industrial enclosures; the grease viscosity is selected for this window, so no cold-start preheat or high-temp derating is needed within the band. The GBX0600040701D carries an active lifecycle status from Schneider Electric — it is a current catalog item, not a phase-out or NRDN line.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0600040701D Planetary Gearbox, 4:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0600040701D planetary gearbox, 60 mm diameter, 4:1 reduction, 38 N.m continuous torque, 96% efficiency.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Gear Reducers & Gearboxes"],"specifications":{"title":"GBX0600040701D","Efficiency":"96 %","Noise level":"58 dB at 1 m, no-load","description":"gearbox with straight teeth GBX- Ø 60 mm- reduction 4:1- < 20arcmin- 38 N.m","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,"stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/7bb248573a728a0c43a0cb72879ed7f2.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/ie/en/product/GBX0600040701D/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-60-mm-reduction-41-20arcmin-38-n-m/"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the continuous output torque of GBX0600040701D?","answer":"Continuous output torque is 38 N.m, with a maximum peak torque of 61 N.m — the margin between the two defines the overload capacity for intermittent duty cycles."},{"question":"What noise level does GBX0600040701D produce?","answer":"The gearbox is rated at 58 dB at 1 m under no-load conditions — this is the acoustic noise from the straight-tooth mesh, which is inherently louder than helical gearing at the same reduction."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/schneider/GBX0600040701D","citationPolicyUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/llms.txt","source":"AO Ctrl","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"AO Ctrl\" and link https://aoctrl.com/schneider/GBX0600040701D when reusing this data.
