MKB Series / Gearboxes

Start with the ratio and motor interface.

MKB is a helical planetary gearbox series with single- and double-stage configurations. Use the size comparison to narrow the range, then check the exact ratio, output shaft and motor connection.

The torque ranges span the listed ratios and both stage counts; the upper value is not available at every ratio. Nominal torque uses the catalog nominal input speed and 20,000-hour service-life basis. Nominal input speed means maximum average input speed. Weights are catalog values and may vary slightly by model. Maximum starting/stopping and emergency-stop torque are separate catalog ratings.
