A planetary reducer, also known as a planetary gearbox, is a mechanical gear system typically used to increase torque while decreasing speed in a rotating system. It is called a planetary reducer because it utilizes a system of gears called a planetary gear train, similar in concept to the solar system, with a central sun wheel surrounded by planets that revolve around it. Planetary gears come in a variety of sizes, such as 2-stage or 3-stage planetary gears, all of which can be combined with different types of primary gears.
Compared with other reducers, planetary reducer has the characteristics of compact structure, high efficiency, high torque and so on.
Because of these unique characteristics, most planetary gear motors can be used not only with motors to reduce speed, but also in other applications.
In summary, planetary reducers are compact high-torque mechanical gear systems distinguished by their high efficiency, smooth operation, wide speed ratio range, durability and versatility. They are used in a wide variety of applications where it is necessary to increase torque while reducing speed.
