The AL series utilizes a fixed planet design, which allows the output housing of the gearbox to drive the pulley versus a standard shaft driven system. This new technology and design allows the pulley to be centered in between two high capacity bearings which increases stiffness and radial load capacities to over 2 times competitive models.

The True Helical gear design increases tooth-to-tooth contact ratio by over 33% vs. the standard spur gearing geometry. The Helix angle is optimized and produces smooth and quiet operation at extreme speeds. (Less than 2 arc-min, less than 56dB, up to 10,000rpms input).

The product is offered in 7 sizes (70mm thru 280mm) and is equipped with standard single & double stage ratios (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90). Covered by the industry leading 5-year tip to toe warranty and delivery is guaranteed with in two weeks or it’s FREE.

The PE series uses fully supported planet gearing and thicker planet gears to increase the tooth-to-tooth contact ratio, resulting in torque capacities over 30% higher than other standard spur gearing geometry. The gearing is optimized and produces smooth and quiet operation at extreme speeds. At up to 8000 RPM input speed, noise is held under 68 dB while backlash is less than 6 arc-min.

The product is offered in 5 sizes from 50 mm to 155 mm and is equipped with single stage ratios of 3,4,5,7, and 10:1 along with 9 more double stage ratios of from 15:1 to 100:1. Other options in the PE series are Square Metric (PB) and English Nema (PN), all of which are available from stock.

The PE series gearboxes are covered by Apex’s industry leading 2-year tip to toe warranty. Delivery is guaranteed within two weeks or the gearboxes are free.
