The reduction ratio is 60:1, which means the input speed is multiplied by 60 relative to the output. For a motor running at 3000 rpm, the output shaft turns at 50 rpm — a typical match for indexing tables, conveyor drives, or positioning stages that need high torque at low speed. ## Mechanical constraints — backlash, loads, and environment Maximum torsional backlash is 22 arc.min — this is a standard-precision planetary, not a zero-backlash unit. For applications that reverse direction under load (pick-and-place, rotary indexing), the lost motion at each reversal adds up; if the positioning tolerance is tighter than a few arc-minutes, a lower-backlash gearbox is needed. The output shaft carries a maximum radial force of 340 N at mid-shaft distance (30,000-hour life) and a maximum axial force of 450 N under the same duty. These limits drop at higher speeds or shorter life targets — the 10,000-hour figures are 500 N radial and 600 N axial. The shaft material is C45 steel; the housing is black anodized aluminium with IP54 protection at the shaft output, meaning it resists dust and splashing water but is not rated for washdown. ## Efficiency and noise — what the numbers mean on a real line Rated efficiency is 94 % — typical for a single-stage planetary with straight teeth at full load. The 6 % loss is mostly gear mesh friction and churning; it shows up as heat in the housing. The noise level is 58 dB at 1 m, no-load, which is quiet enough for a lab or assembly area but not silent — the straight-tooth profile generates a characteristic whine under load that helical gears would reduce.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0600601004F Planetary Gearbox","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0600601004F planetary gearbox, 60:1 reduction, 44 N.m continuous torque, 94% efficiency, 58 dB noise.","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":"60:1","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":"22 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/b6c377d8858b291251cf2f902b83cf29.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/nz/en/product/GBX0600601004F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-60-mm-reduction-601-22arcmin-44-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX0600601004F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Where can I buy GBX0600601004F and get a price?","answer":"We source the GBX0600601004F through independent distribution channels."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/schneider/GBX0600601004F","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/GBX0600601004F when reusing this data.
