Gear unit selection and customization
STOBER has a wide selection of gear unit types to suit practically any need:
- Planetary Gears: Based around a central gear with multiple smaller gears in a ring gear surrounding it, planetary gear units deliver higher torque and reduction than other types.
- Helical Gears: With multiple gears in an axis-parallel arrangement, helical gear units are designed so the teeth of the gears mesh together as precisely as possible to ensure efficient transmission of power.
- Bevel Gears: Beveled gear units transfer power between intersecting shafts, typically used to reduce speeds and increase torque while also reversing the rotation of the shaft.
- Spur Gears: The simplest configuration for gear units, these feature parallel shafts with cylindrical gears with straight teeth.
No matter what type of gear unit provides the best fit for your applications, STOBER can help you find it. We also work closely with you to customize your unit for industry-specific uses, including washdown-ready coatings for food processing or high-torque solutions to power heavy machinery. Our experts are ready and willing to help you find the right solution for your load capacity, torque demands and operational conditions.
