The GBX0800401002F is a Schneider Electric planetary gearbox with a 40:1 reduction ratio and 110 N.m continuous output torque at 100 rpm and 30 °C. That continuous rating is the figure to size against your motor's rated torque multiplied by the ratio, not the 176 N.m maximum output torque, which is a short-term peak for acceleration or shock loads. Efficiency is listed at 94 %, so the input power loss is about 6 % through the gear train — typical for a single-stage planetary with straight teeth. The 14 arcmin maximum torsional backlash means the output shaft can lag the input by up to 14 arcminutes before the gear teeth engage; for positioning axes that need tighter repeatability, a lower-backlash gearbox (e.g., 5 arcmin or less) would be required. Noise level is 60 dB at 1 m under no-load — quiet enough for most production floor environments but not silent; if the gearbox is mounted near an operator station, the 60 dB figure is the floor, not the ceiling under load.
Obsolete — sourcing through independent channels
Schneider Electric lists the GBX0800401002F as obsolete. No official successor is recorded from the manufacturer. The part is available through independent surplus and broker channels; quantities are lot-specific and confirmed at RFQ.
Mounting and integration — 80 mm diameter, IP54 shaft output
The gearbox has an 80 mm external diameter and a black anodized aluminium housing. Shaft material is C 45 steel. Maximum axial force is 1200 N at 100 rpm for a 10000-hour service life, and maximum radial force is 950 N at 100 rpm for the same duration — these are the limits for overhung loads on the output shaft. The gearbox is lubricated for life, so no maintenance oil changes are needed. Service life is rated at 30000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C.
