- The shaft is aligned parallel to the motor body
- The gears are constructed entirely of metal, providing a long service life
- The temperature rise is minimized
- It has a small footprint and provides high torque output
The DC 24V Flat Spur Gear Motor, 3RPM Parallel Shaft Gear Motor is a type of gear motor which uses gears to achieve speed reduction. It is called a parallel shaft gear motor since the motor shaft and the speed reducer shaft are on parallel planes, which allows for a flat gearbox, ideal for applications where space is limited, such as stirrers for liquid mixing processes.
The advantages of the parallel shaft gear motor include a compact design, which translates into less space and weight when compared to coaxial shaft gear motors. It can reach a power rating of up to 200 kW and a nominal torque for the speed reducer of up to 20,000 Nm. Furthermore, they can withstand high torque and great radial forces, while offering low vibration and noise levels.
