Read MoreThe Dunkermotoren PLG 60 Series Planetary Gearbox is a compact, high-efficiency solution engineered for low-noise, high-torque applications across industrial automation, robotics, and medical equipment. With reduction ratios ranging from 3:1 to 70:1 and continuous torque capabilities up to 25 Nm, this gearbox delivers reliable and quiet performance in demanding drive systems.
Featuring non-metallic helical gears in the first and second stages, the PLG 60 provides ultra-smooth, low-vibration operation. The internal build combines a steel sun gear, lightweight aluminium ring gear, and dual ball bearings on the output shaft for robust mechanical support and extended service life. Available in 1- and 2-stage configurations, it achieves high transmission efficiency—up to 90% in single-stage versions.
The PLG 60 supports axial loads up to 500 N and radial loads up to 350 N, making it a solid choice for compact systems under continuous load. Lifetime lubrication ensures maintenance-free operation, while optional versions with food-grade or low-temperature grease enable use in specialised environments.
For precision motion control in compact spaces, the PLG 60 Series offers quiet, dependable, and long-lasting performance.
