Parallel Shaft/Right-Angle Gearheads

Parallel Shaft/Right-Angle Gearheads

Standard AC motors are used generally as power sources for automated devices because these motors can be operated easily through connection to an AC power supply.
Oriental Motor offers standard AC motors incorporating various operating functions. A standard AC motor can be combined with a brake pack or speed control circuit product and also combined with mechanical component such as a gearhead or linear head. For this reason, various applications can be supported.

GN-KF Gearhead: Easy Speed Reduction and Torque Increase

Combination with a gearhead allows the motor to slow down to a required speed or generate higher torque.

Wide Variety of Products

Various types are available such as right-angle gearheads.
Most gearheads are available with 20 different gear ratios from 1:3 to 1:180.

GN-KF Gearhead

Combination with a gearhead allows the motor to slow down to a required speed or generate higher torque.

Right-Angle Gearheads: Ideal for Space Saving

The motor is perpendicular to the load shaft, enabling space saving.

Right-Angle Gearheads

Right-angle gearheads are flange-mounted gearheads that use worm gears and special helical gears. They allow motors to be installed at right angles to the axis of equipment such as belt conveyors. They are available as hollow shaft RH types and solid shaft RA types and are ideal for keeping equipment compact.

Low Cost:

With hollow shaft gearheads, the parts cost and labor will decrease since no connecting parts are needed.

Wide Variety

A wide variety of gear ratios (20 types, from 3 to 180) are available.
The optimal gear ratio can be selected in the same manner as with parallel shaft gearheads.
The maximum permissible torques are also the same as for parallel shaft gearheads.
● The GE pinion solid shaft type comes with a tapped hole at the shaft end.

Mounting Using Torque Arm (Sold separately)

Hollow shaft gearheads (5GE□RH, 5GU□RH) are locked with a torque arm (sold separately) when mounted so the gearhead does not rotate from the reactive force of the load. When the torque arm is used, centering becomes unnecessary, so equipment mounting time can be reduced.
