Frequently asked questions about AKIM Solutions
When is a planetary gear particularly suitable?
Planetary gears are suitable for applications with high speeds, large torques, and limited installation space. They offer high power density and robust power transmission.
Are planetary gearboxes suitable for continuous operation?
Yes. AKIM planetary gearboxes are designed for continuous industrial use and feature low-maintenance lifetime lubrication.
Is a custom adaptation possible?
Yes. In addition to the standard sizes, the design, gear ratio, solid or hollow shaft version, and interfaces can be adapted to the application – technically sensible and economically coordinated.
How do planetary gears differ from dual-disc or ACBAR gears?
Planetary gears are ideal for high speeds and compact design. Dual-disc gears are more suited for heavy-duty continuous operation, ACBAR for extreme ratios and shock loads.
Are there spare parts for old/older AKIM gearboxes?
Yes. We supply spare parts even for gearboxes from the 1920s – our documentation is complete/comprehensive and archived.
