Gearboxes
Inline and Right Angle Planetary Gearboxes
Macron Dynamics MPG inline planetary gearboxes and MRG right-angle planetary gearboxes are designed to eliminate the need for motor mounts used in a typical linear actuator drive system setup. These gearboxes are a direct bolt-on installation for any Macron linear actuator. The gearboxes design eliminates the need for couplings and large mounting brackets, essentially making the actuator and drive assembly a seamless integral unit.
Macron’s MPG and MRG planetary gearboxes are specially designed for integration with Macron Dynamics linear robotic systems, featuring:
- A single screw clamping collar attachment for the pulley housing
- Zero backlash clamping to actuator and motor shafts
- Piloted interfaces for concentric alignment
- Easy bolted connections
In comparison to these more complex connection methods, our exclusive Macron design:
- Shortens powertrain length
- Ensures shaft to shaft alignment
- Eliminates special engineering and multiple component parts
We use high-quality components to create a low backlash operation in a lightweight package. The MPG and MRG gearboxes have gears designed for infinite life when operated at the rated torque, while the bearings and lubricant are selected to achieve maintenance-free operation for long operating periods.
