The GBX0600090704F is a straight-tooth planetary gearbox in a 60 mm diameter housing, reduction ratio 9:1, rated for continuous output torque of 44 N.m at 100 rpm and a maximum intermittent torque of 70 N.m at the same speed. Efficiency is listed at 94 % — the 6 % loss is dissipated as heat through the black anodized aluminium housing, so the gearbox runs cool enough for continuous duty in a confined space without forced ventilation. Noise level is 58 dB at 1 m, no-load — quiet enough for a lab bench or a packaging machine mounted near an operator station. The straight-tooth profile is inherently noisier than helical, but at this size and speed the level is acceptable for most industrial environments. Maximum torsional backlash is 20 arc.min — standard precision for a general-purpose planetary. If the axis requires backlash below 10 arc.min for positioning or reversing loads, this gearbox is not the fit.
Continuous output torque is 44 N.m at 100 rpm; the maximum intermittent figure of 70 N.m is a short-duration peak, not a duty-cycle rating. The service life is 30,000 hours at the continuous rating and 30 °C ambient — lubricated for life, so no maintenance interval to schedule. Maximum radial force on the output shaft is 340 N at mid-span for the 30,000-hour life, or 500 N for a 10,000-hour life. Maximum axial force is 450 N for the longer life, 600 N for the shorter. These limits govern overhung load from a belt pulley or a chain sprocket.
