The high-end economy lines GSN & GFE combine powerful with economic efficiency: both lines are also built with helical ground gears, ensuring the very least noise level and smooth running. The entire needle bearing has been especially designed to reach high torques that defeat the competition for models of the same size. All planetary carriers are manufactured as a cage created from solid material. This increases noiseless operating characteristics while at the same time improving positioning accuracy and reducing backlash. An additional shaft sealing ring ensures maximum dirt and splash water protection relative to protection class IP65 in every lines.
One way to reduce backlash is to use precision gears. The concentrate on production in precision gears can be tighter tolerances, so all around the gear will be a tighter, more precise fit. And the tighter fit means less play in the apparatus teeth, which is the trigger of backlash in the first place. Of training course, precision gears are more expensive, but if the application calls for high accuracy, then precision gearing could be the way to go.
From a gear design perspective, a simple way to reduce backlash is to make sure the teeth mesh tightly together. That is typically carried out by shortening the center distance between gears. As for pre-loading, this is often done using a spring mechanism to hold the gears firmly in place. This also eliminates the enjoy between the gear teeth and therefore eliminates backlash.
Of course, the kind of gears used can also have a huge impact on the amount of backlash. So for example, some gear types such as stress wave gears, or harmonic gear drives, have zero backlash.

The GSD, GSB & GSBL high-end gearbox lines are constructed in a space-optimized, two-stage design. Because of the lower torque values, the input stage is usually dimensionally smaller than the result stage. Its short design makes the GSD line the ideal high-end gearbox for space limited applications. The low standard backlash of the GSD collection makes it the perfect fit for highly powerful applications where highest positioning and velocity accuracy is necessary. The flange result produces highest torsional rigidity. For the lodging of particularly high axial loads, taper roller bearings are elective in sizes with 90 mm diameter or higher. The GSB line means high performance in combination with low backlash and high precision. Its robust, one-piece housing allows for a high gearbox rigidity and the absorption of high radial and axial loads. The angular gearboxes of the GSBL collection offer the same advantages as the GSB series; the right angle shape makes the GSBL series an ideal match for all powerful applications where space is limited.
