Why choose custom planetary gearbox?

Although standard planetary gearboxes and components are usually adequate for most OEM mechanical applications, designing custom planetary gearboxes provides multiple benefits. It provides the an opportunity for an OEM being involved in the full process, ranging from design to production. And your specific needs can be fulfilled through customization, whether it’s material, size, speed, or low backlash requirements.

What qualifies as a custom planetary gearbox feature, or a unique design?

Here are some examples:

  • Adaptations for specific environmental conditions
  • Specialized mounting needs
  • Specific lubrication needs
  • Modifications in dimensions
  • Gearboxes for high-speed operations
  • Distinctive shaft configurations
  • Premium material choices
  • Designs with multiple shaft outputs
  • Customized paint finishes
  • Choice of plating options
  • Tailored gear ratios
  • Solutions for washdown

From terrestrial settings to underwater depths, or even airborne contexts, enduring the scorching heat of furnaces or the biting cold of the Antarctic, Newstart has met some of the most stringent application challenges, even accommodating requests for single-piece productions.

The custom planetary gearbox application

Due to the unique requirements of each industry and application, specific requirements need to be met. For example, in the food industry or pharmaceutical manufacturing, gear reducers must be corrosion-resistant, washable and free of harmful substances. They must be made of stainless steel and aluminum alloys, and their waterproofing must meet IP67 standards. In AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles), AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots) and intelligent forklifts, these applications require high-torque, compact gear reducers for miniaturization and high durability. In military applications, this requires high precision and the ability to withstand harsh environments. These examples only scratch the surface of specific application requirements. With our extensive experience in multiple fields, we can assist customers in product development, reducing development time and costs.
