Lifecycle status and sourcing
The GBX0400151401F: We source this unit through independent distribution channels — availability and pricing are confirmed per RFQ. No stock-holding claim; quoted to order.
Torque and reduction for the application
With a 15:1 reduction ratio and 18 N.m continuous output torque at 100 rpm, this planetary gearbox is sized for moderate-load positioning or indexing on a conveyor or rotary table. Maximum output torque reaches 29 N.m at the same speed, giving a short-term overload margin of about 60 % above the continuous rating.
Efficiency and noise in the line
Listed at 94 % efficiency, the gearbox wastes little input power as heat — important for a sealed, lubricated-for-life unit where thermal rise is contained by the black anodized aluminium housing. Noise level is 55 dB at 1 m, no-load — quiet enough for a packaging or bottling line without additional acoustic enclosures.
Shaft loads and service life
Rated for 30,000 hours service life at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient. Maximum radial force on the output shaft is 200 N at mid-span for a 10,000-hour target, dropping to 160 N for the full 30,000-hour window. Maximum axial force follows the same pattern: 200 N for 10,000 hours, 160 N for 30,000 hours. The C 45 steel shaft handles these loads within the IP54-protected output seal.
