Overview

The GAM EPL Series inline planetary gearbox delivers precise motion control for servo applications with torque capacity up to 340 Nm and backlash under 8 arcmin. Designed for general servo use, this series features torsional rigidity up to 33 Nm/arcmin and frame sizes from 50 to 150 mm. Multiple output configurations include hollow (EPL-U), NEMA (EPL-X), metric shaft (EPL-A, EPL-W), and flange (EPL-F) outputs. A stainless steel version (SSP-W) is available for washdown environments. Key features include precision ground gears, angular contact bearings for high radial and axial loading, and customized adapter plates for motor mounting. Ratios range from 3:1 to 1000:1 across 1-, 2-, and 3-stage configurations. The EPL-F series offers a compact flange output for easy connection of mechanical elements like pulleys and pinions. The EPL-A series matches dimensions of popular planetary gearboxes for drop-in compatibility. All models are ready to mount directly to motors, reducing installation time. Suitable for applications requiring accurate positioning and smooth operation in industrial automation, robotics, and material handling systems.
