Apex Precision Planetary Gearboxes
AE / AER & AES / AESR Series (Stainless Steel)
The Apex AE / AES series planetary gearbox sets itself apart in the market with its unparalleled characteristics. It stands as a unique offering among gearbox manufacturers globally, as Apex holds the distinction of being the sole producer of a cylindrical helical stainless-steel gearbox. This remarkable gearbox design incorporates 100% optimised helical gearing, ensuring exceptional precision, high torque output, and remarkably quiet operation. To further enhance its performance, the gearbox features straddle-mounted high-precision bearings. These bearings not only enable the gearbox to withstand high radial and axial loads but also contribute to its overall durability and reliability.
AES is the inline planetary gearbox with the body made fully of stainless steel, and also has food grade grease, which are designed for harsh environments and food industry.
- Low noise, lightweight, inline or right-angle formats
- High efficiency, reduced backlash, optimised Inertia moment
- Stainless Steel materials (either partly or fully)
- Gear ratio from 3:1 up to 1000:1
P-II / P-IIR Series (Economical)
Apex's new PII / PIIR series servo planetary gearbox is an economic solution with excellent performance and quality. Our innovative PII / PIIR series design features some unique advantages:
- Minimal size, low noise, lightweight, inline or right-angle formats
- High efficiency, reduced backlash, optimised Inertia moment
- Limited temperature rise, long service life and flexible mounting diameters
- Gear ratio from 3:1 up to 1000:1
AB / ABR Series
AB / ABR series is low-noise planetary gearbox with a compact structure and is easy to mount. It has stainless steel frames/housing with an IP rating IP65
- Output torque T2N from 14Nm-2000Nm
- Gear ratio: from 3:1 up to 100:1
- Low backlash less than 1 arcmin
- High efficiency of 94% - 97%
AD / ADR / ADS Series
The Apex AD series is a high torque, low backlash planetary gearbox with helical gears inside. Its one-piece planetary cage compact design in stainless steel materials provides the stiffest and most accurate rotating flange design on the market today. Having a superior accuracy of less than 1 arc-min and as short as 70mm (flange to flange), the Apex's AD series can fit into the smallest space. It comes with in-line, right-angle model or features a specially designed input shaft with a key and threaded hole. Easy to drive via timing belt pulley or coupling.
GL / GLS Series
The Apex GL Series is a high-precision planetary gearbox designed for AGV applications. The unique rotary housing allows a drive wheel or pulley to be mounted over the exterior, burying a large part of the gearbox in the wheel or pulley. This feature results in space savings in the robot or cart. The GL is also available with a shaft input (GLS), which allows the gearbox to be driven by a belt and pulley.
- High radial load, rotating housing
- High efficiency, low noise, reduced backlash
- Optimised Inertia moment, limited temperature rise
- Long service life, optimised output torque
