SEW-Eurodrive P072 and P082 planetary gear units

SEW-Eurodrive has added two sizes to its P-Series products: P072 and P082. With these two additions, the P-Series covers rated torques up to 500 kNm. The planetary gear units are suitable for applications where low speeds and high torques are required.

The P-Series units are available in 11 sizes with torques ranging from 24 to 500 kNm. The units are designed so the gearmotor is directly mounted in front of the planetary gear unit. This eliminates the need for couplings, intermediate flanges and adapter flanges.

Several different designs enable the gear units to be optimised for the user’s application. SEW’s gearmotors offer a variety at the input. This results in precise gear unit ratio grades. The designs can be combined with the planetary gear unit in helical or bevel-helical gear versions. The P-Series is designed to be short and compact. The gears feature high torsional rigidity and can transmit high torques.

Users can select the standardised planetary gearmotors from a catalogue. The CAD database DriveCAD makes it possible to quickly create 3D models and 2D dimension sheets using DriveGate, the SEW customer portal. The company’s modular system provides users with a range of options as well.

The industrial planetary gearmotors can be used in all applications where heavy objects are moved at low speed including: plate conveyor drives in conveyor systems, silo discharge systems for mixers and agitators, remote drives for wood pulp presses in the pulp and paper industry and bucket wheel drives for mining.
