The unit itself is a planetary gearbox in the GBX family, 120 mm frame, with straight-cut teeth and a 20:1 single-stage reduction. ## Continuous and peak torque envelope Continuous output torque is 260 N.m, with a maximum output torque ceiling of 416 N.m — sizing for the peak figure is what trips design reviews when the gearbox is matched to a servo drive in a stop-and-go motion profile. The reduction ratio of 20:1 places this in the GBX-120 mid-range single-stage; torsional rigidity is 13 N.m/arcmin, so torsional wind-up under transient load becomes part of the positioning error budget, not a number you can ignore. ## Service life and mechanical load ratings Rated service life is 30000 h at 100 rpm, 30 °C — derate from this point for either higher speed, higher temperature, or sustained side loads because the load ratings are conditional on that duty point. Maximum axial force is 2100 N at 100 rpm over the 30000 hour envelope and 2800 N if the design only budgets 10000 h; maximum radial force is 1500 N and 2000 N on the same two-hour bases, both applied at mid-distance from the output shaft. ## Shaft, housing, and mounting details Output shaft is C 45 steel with IP54 sealing at the shaft exit, set in a black anodized aluminium housing that mounts in any position. Maximum torsional backlash sits at 12 arcmin and the gearbox is lubricated for life, so the only field-side service item is keeping the exterior bearing surfaces clean. ## Efficiency, noise, and inertia Single-stage straight-tooth mesh holds efficiency at 94% and radiated noise at 65 dB measured at 1 m on no-load — useful as a baseline when this gearbox is specified into noise-sensitive packaging machinery. Moment of inertia is 1.5 g.cm² at the input — small enough to keep the reflected load on the servo motor within standard sizing practice.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX1200200842D, 20:1 gearbox, 260 N.m","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX1200200842D planetary gearbox, 20:1 ratio, 260 N.m continuous, listed obsolete — sourced and quoted to order on RFQ.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Gear Reducers & Gearboxes"],"specifications":{"Efficiency":"94 %","Noise level":"65 dB at 1 m, no-load","Gear box type":"Straight teeth","Housing colour":"Black","Shaft material":"C 45","Reduction ratio":"20:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Moment Of Inertia":"1.5 g.cm²","Mounting position":"Any position","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"13 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"416 N.m","Service life in hours":"30000 h at 100 rpm at 30 °C","Additional information":"Lubricated for life","Maximum axial force Fa":"2100 N at 100 rpm, during 30000 hour at 30°C 2800 N at 100 rpm, during 10000 hour at 30°C","IP degree of protection":"Shaft output: IP54","Maximum radial force Fr":"1500 N at 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 30000 hour at 30 °C 2000 N at 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 10000 hour at 30 °C","Continuous output torque":"260 N.m","Gearbox external diameter":"120 mm","Product or component type":"Planetary gearbox","Maximum torsional backlash":"12 arc.min","Ambient Temperature For Operation":"-25...90 °C"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/7a5fa14a62ef094e17e4663589a4281b.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/nl/en/product/GBX1200200842D/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-120-mm-reduction-201-12arcmin-260-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX1200200842D/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the listed efficiency of GBX1200200842D?","answer":"The published efficiency is 94% for this 20:1 single-stage planetary gearbox — straight-cut teeth in the GBX-120 frame, with no-load radiated noise at 65 dB at 1 m."},{"question":"Where can I buy GBX1200200842D and how do I get a price?","answer":"The listed lifecycle stage is obsolete, so it is treated as a sourced-to-order line rather than a stock position."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/schneider/GBX1200200842D","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/GBX1200200842D when reusing this data.
