Planetary gearbox, 60:1 reduction, 260 N.m continuous
The GBX1200600554F is a Schneider Electric planetary gearbox with a 60:1 reduction ratio, delivering a continuous output torque of 260 N.m (2301.2 lbf.in) at 100 rpm and 30 °C — enough to drive indexing tables, conveyor drums, or rotary actuators in packaging and material-handling lines. Maximum output torque reaches 416 N.m (3681.9 lbf.in) under the same conditions, giving a short-term overload margin for start-up or intermittent peak loads.
Mechanical ratings and service life
Rated service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C — the gearbox is lubricated for life, so no oil changes are needed over that period. Maximum torsional backlash is 14 arc.min, and torsional rigidity is 12 N.m/arcmin — this is a standard-precision planetary, not a zero-backlash stage; suitable for positioning where cumulative error under 0.5° per revolution is acceptable. Maximum axial force Fa is 2100 N at 100 rpm for the 30,000-hour life (2800 N for 10,000 hours); maximum radial force Fr is 1500 N at mid-shaft for the longer life (2000 N for 10,000 hours). These limits govern overhung loads from belt pulleys or chain sprockets. Efficiency is 94 %, and noise level is 65 dB at 1 m, no-load — the straight-tooth design is slightly louder than helical but more efficient at high ratios.
Construction and environmental ratings
Housing is black anodized aluminium, 120 mm external diameter; shaft output has IP54 protection — suitable for indoor environments with dust and splash exposure, but not washdown.
Lifecycle and sourcing — obsolete, sourced to order
