Gearheads

Micron® planetary gearheads are used on high precision motion control applications which require a high torque to volume ratio, high torsional stiffness, and low backlash. All of our gearheads are self-lubricating and have high radial load capacity for any given size. The ability to match inertias with our large variety of ratios, provide to keep our customers stable and controlled servo systems.

We offer two technologies with most of our TRUE planetary gearheads:
•  RediMount™ Motor Mounting System for easy, error free, and quick connection
  PowerTRUE™ 90 Technology, a unique tooth design for higher torque density


Let Kollmorgen Help You Make Your Selection!

Micron MOTIONEERING®: Micron's gearhead sizing, selection, and pricing tool can help you size gearheads to high precision motion control applications which require a high torque to volume ratio, high torsional stiffness, and low backlash.

Interactive 3D Models, Kollmorgen's 3D modeling tool, allows you to configure 2D/3D product views with download capability in just about any major format.

PowerTRUE™ 90 Technology

img_sample_img2

Right angle gear meshes are typically limited to ratios from 1:1 to 3:1 when using standard bevel gears. Compared to these designs, the PowerTRUE™ 90 gear increases the ratio range to 5:1. The key to higher torque density is a unique tooth design, created by complex machining made practical with advanced CNC equipment and software.
