Frequently Asked Questions

What is a planetary gear reducer?

A planetary gear reducer is a compact transmission mechanism consisting of a sun gear, planet gears, ring gear and planet carrier.

It reduces motor speed while increasing output torque, making it suitable for compact robotic and automation systems.

Our planetary gear reducers are suitable for humanoid robot joints, quadruped robots, robotic arms, rotary axes and precision automation systems.

The final configuration is selected according to torque, speed, installation space and motion-control requirements.

Available reduction ratios depend on the reducer size and internal configuration.

The appropriate ratio is selected according to motor speed, required output speed, output torque and application requirements.

Yes. We can evaluate customization of dimensions, reduction ratio, torque capacity, backlash, mounting interfaces, output structure and motor matching.

Final customization options depend on the project requirements and engineering evaluation.

Please provide the required rated torque, peak torque, motor speed, desired output speed, installation space, duty cycle, backlash requirement and mechanical interface drawings.

Providing 2D drawings or 3D models will help our engineering team evaluate the configuration more accurately.

Yes. ARTUS supports engineering evaluation, prototype manufacturing, performance testing and controlled small-batch production.

Production planning and delivery time will be confirmed according to the selected configuration and order quantity.
