PLF Flange Output Low Backlash Planetary Gearbox

Introduction of PLF Economic Planetary Gearboxes

MKD PLF series precision speed reducers belong to a kind of cost-optimized inline planetary gearbox with flange, which offers an economic solution for your motion control or transmission system needs. This Series offers the right design for customers who have the requirement of in-line applications. They can simplify the clamping system between the motor shaft and the gears, and the output torque will be reduced to the standard level so that the speed ratio is reduced. If you don’t have enough budget but still require the precision and good performance of the speed reducers, then these series of planetary gearboxes are what you find.

For standard planetary gearbox is designed with single-stage with the reduction ratio i = 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10. MKD also provides customers with economic planetary gearboxes with two-stage and three-stage design with reduction ratio i = 12, 15, 16, 20, 25, 28, 30, 35, 40, 50, 70, 80, 100 and ratio i =60, 64, 72, 80, 90, 100, 120, 144, 150, 160, 180, 200, 240, 258, 288, 320, 384, 512, 600, 800, 1000 separately.

Besides, there are three kinds of output shaft keyway: S1. Solid output shaft without keyway; S2. Standard type with a key and keyway. S3. The output is for holes. Normally, we offer planetary reducers with S2 standard type of output shaft, which produced with key and keyway. If you have a special requirement for the output shaft keyway, please kindly inform us in advance.

Application of PLF Economic Planetary Gearboxes

MKD PLF inline gearboxes are an economic alternative to the high precision planetary gearboxes, which are widely used in the fields of machine tools, textile, printers, packaging machinery, rubber machinery, production lines, cutting machine, mechanical arm-gantry, aluminum doors, and windows equipment, sealing machines, testing machine, etc.

How to Select a Suitable Gearbox

Before selecting the speed reducer gearboxes, please confirm the speed ratio you need. And then multiply the nominated torque of the servo motor by the speed ratio to get a value. This value should be less than the nominated output torque of our speed reducer which can be found in the attached parameter table. At the same time, you need to consider other overload conditions of the driving motor and select the maximum operating torque. Of course, this torque should not exceed 2 times the gearbox nominated torque. Once determined, you can choose the smallest gearbox to achieve maximum savings. You can send us servo motor dimension drawings for us to make model selections for you, or inform us about the specific servo motor model.
