The Dunkermotoren PLG 40 LB Series Planetary Gearbox is a low-backlash, high-efficiency gear solution designed for dynamic and high-precision drive applications. With reduction ratios from 3:1 to 120:1 and continuous torque capabilities up to 20 Nm, this gearbox is ideal for use in robotics, automation, and motion control systems where reliable torque transmission and compact design are essential.

Key features include a hardened steel ring gear and needle-bearing-mounted planetary wheels for extended service life beyond 20,000 operating hours. The PLG 40 LB supports 1-, 2-, and 3-stage configurations, offering maximum flexibility in adapting to various speed and torque requirements. It delivers high efficiency—up to 97% in single-stage versions—and supports axial loads up to 65 N and radial loads up to 200 N, 13 mm from the mounting surface.

With IP52 protection as standard (and optional upgrades to IP54 or IP65), this gearbox is well-suited for challenging environments. Optional variants include food-grade or low-temperature lubrication, making it adaptable for both industrial and specialty applications.

For high-performance, maintenance-free gear reduction in space-limited applications, the Dunkermotoren PLG 40 LB Series delivers low-backlash precision and long-term durability.
