Planetary gear units by Tercesa
The use of planetary gear units in the field of
power transmission is the modern answer to the
demand for compactness, constructive simplicity
and product reliability.
PL/PLB planetary gear units are made of 62%
steel, about 33% cast iron and a lower
percentage of aluminium, copper, rubber and
brass. These percentages vary depending on the
product configurations.
PL planetary gear units are divided into 21 basic
groups depending on the different torques that
are to be transmitted to the output shaft, which
can vary from 500 Nm to 660000 Nm.
