Gearbox Selection

Below are some guideline steps to help aid in the gear unit selection.
1. Define Application Requirements
Purpose: Define the purpose of the gearbox, such as industrial equipment, automobiles, agricultural machinery, etc.
Power and torque requirements: Calculate the power (kW/HP) and torque (Nm) required for the equipment to operate and ensure that the gearbox can withstand the workload.
Working environment: Evaluate the conditions of the working environment, such as temperature, humidity, dust or corrosive environment. These will affect the selection of materials and lubrication.
2. Determine the speed and/or gear ratio
If low speed and high torque are required, a higher speed ratio should be selected; conversely, if high speed and low torque are required, a lower speed ratio should be selected.
3. Determine the required power or torque
4. Determine Service Factor
5. Select the basic gearbox type and input
6. Determine the required mounting position
7. Select options
8. Checks – overhung load, thrust load, NEMA motor weight, thermal considerations, and other application considerations
