Gearmotor
Gearmotors are compact and homogeneous units that regulate the speed of electric motors to operate at a specific rate. They consist of a gearbox and a motor, which is typically an AC or a servomotor.
The main objective of gearmotors is to allow and control the transition from one speed to another without damaging the mechanism. In other words, they transmit the motor’s force from the input shaft to the output shaft.
What is a gearbox?
A gearbox is one of the most important components in a gearmotor as it is responsible for converting the speed of the electric motor. Its goal is to ensure that manufacturing processes are carried out smoothly without any hiccups. In other words, the function of the gearbox is to transform the speed of a motor from higher to lower based on the required needs.
