Maximum output torque hits 70 N.m (619.6 lbf.in) under the same conditions, giving you about 60% headroom for acceleration peaks or momentary overloads. That 44 N.m continuous rating at 100 rpm means the gearbox delivers about 460 W output power at that speed. If your application runs faster or slower, the torque derates — the 30000-hour service life figure is tied to the 100 rpm, 30 °C condition. ## 15:1 reduction and what it buys you A 15:1 ratio in a single planetary stage is a moderate reduction — it multiplies input torque by roughly 15× while dividing output speed by the same factor. For a typical 3000 rpm servo motor input, you'd get about 200 rpm at the output, right in the sweet spot for many indexing and positioning tables. The straight-tooth planetary design is simpler and more efficient than helical, but generates more audible whine under load. The 58 dB noise level at 1 m no-load is quiet enough for most machine-side environments — think packaging lines or light assembly, not a silent cleanroom. ## Efficiency and thermal reality 94% efficiency means about 6% of the input power turns into heat inside the gearbox. At 44 N.m and 100 rpm (460 W output), that's roughly 29 W of heat to dissipate through the black anodized aluminium housing. The -25 to 90 °C ambient range covers both cold storage and hot machine environments. Lubricated for life — no oil changes, no maintenance schedule for the gearbox itself. The IP54 shaft output seal keeps dust and splash out of the bearings, but the housing itself isn't sealed against washdown; keep it out of direct hose spray. ## Shaft loading — axial and radial limits Maximum axial force is 450 N for the full 30000-hour service life, or 600 N if you accept a shorter 10000-hour life — both at 100 rpm and 30 °C. Radial force at mid-shaft is 340 N for 30000 hours, 500 N for 10000 hours. These are the limits that govern overhung load from a belt pulley or chain sprocket. The C45 steel output shaft is standard medium-carbon steel — hard enough for keyed or clamped couplings, but not case-hardened for high-wear applications like splined direct drives. If your coupling method involves set screws directly on the shaft, budget for surface marking.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0600151001F planetary gearbox, 15:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0600151001F planetary gearbox, 60 mm diameter, 15:1 ratio, 44 N.m continuous torque, 94% efficiency.","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":"15:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"2.5 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"619.6 lbf.in (70 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":"389.4 lbf.in (44 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":"20 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/f6290cc84be6b18c8c221ad700b26b19.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/us/en/product/GBX0600151001F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-60-mm-reduction-151-20arcmin-44-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX0600151001F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the continuous torque rating of the GBX0600151001F?","answer":"44 N.m (389.4 lbf.in) at 100 rpm and 30 °C.
