60:1 planetary reduction, 44 N.m continuous
The GBX0600600552F is a 60 mm-diameter planetary gearbox from Schneider Electric with a 60:1 reduction ratio, delivering 44 N.m continuous output torque at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient. Maximum output torque reaches 70 N.m under the same conditions, with a torsional rigidity of 2.5 N.m/arcmin and a maximum backlash of 22 arc.min — figures that matter for positioning accuracy in indexing or pick-and-place applications.
Efficiency, noise, and service life
Rated efficiency is 94 %, which means roughly 6 % of input power is lost as heat — a solid figure for a straight-tooth planetary stage at this ratio. Noise level is 58 dB at 1 m under no-load — quiet enough for lab or light assembly environments, though straight-tooth gears are inherently noisier under load than helical. Service life is rated at 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C, lubricated for life — no maintenance schedule for grease changes, which simplifies MRO planning.
Sourcing — obsolete, quoted to order
Available through independent surplus channels; quantities are lot-specific and confirmed at RFQ.
Mounting and environmental limits
Shaft output carries an IP54 rating — protected against dust ingress and splashing water, but not washdown. The housing is black anodized aluminium; the shaft is C45 steel. Maximum axial force on the output shaft is 450 N at 100 rpm for the full 30,000-hour life; radial force is 340 N applied at mid-shaft.
