8:1 planetary reduction — 18 N.m continuous, 29 N.m peak
The GBX0600080584D is a 60 mm-diameter planetary gearbox from Schneider Electric's GBX series, delivering an 8:1 reduction ratio with straight-cut teeth. Continuous output torque is rated at 18 N.m, with a maximum intermittent torque of 29 N.m — the peak figure governs acceleration and emergency-stop loads, while the continuous rating sets the thermal limit for sustained duty cycles. Efficiency is listed at 96 %, which is typical for a single-stage planetary stage at this ratio.
Load ratings and service life at 100 rpm
Service life is specified at 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient — this is the L10 life under rated load. At that same speed and temperature, maximum axial force (Fa) is 450 N and maximum radial force (Fr) is 340 N, both applied at mid-span on the output shaft. For shorter life targets (10,000 hours), the limits increase to 600 N axial and 500 N radial. The housing is black anodized aluminium with IP54 protection at the shaft output — suitable for dry indoor environments but not washdown. The gearbox is lubricated for life and can be mounted in any position, which simplifies integration into tight machine frames. Ambient operating range is -25 to 90 °C, covering most industrial enclosure conditions. Noise level is 58 dB at 1 m under no-load — this is the acoustic baseline; loaded operation will be slightly higher depending on the motor and coupling.
Obsolete — sourced through independent channels
Schneider Electric lists the GBX0600080584D as obsolete. The part is available through independent surplus and broker channels — quantities are lot-specific and confirmed at RFQ. For a BOM that requires this exact reduction ratio and 60 mm frame size, the GBX0600080584D remains a viable replacement part as long as stock exists in the surplus pipeline.
