The difference between orbital motor and gear motor

line gears etc. The gear motor is a rotary drive device with gear transmission as the core. Its internal structure is composed of gears, bearings, casings, etc.


Orbital motors and gear motors have different power

Because the internal structure of the orbital motor is relatively complicated and requires the use of high-precision production processes and materials, its power is relatively small. It is suitable for mechanical equipment with stable output torque, low noise and high precision requirements. The gear motor is relatively rough, can withstand greater load and input power, and is suitable for high-power, heavy-duty mechanical equipment.


Advantages and disadvantages of orbital motors and gear motors

The output torque of the orbital motor is stable, the noise is low, and it has the advantages of high precision and high static stiffness. It is suitable for high-precision mechanical equipment. However, due to the complex internal structure, high manufacturing cost and low power, it is suitable for low-power mechanical equipment.


The gear motor has high power and is suitable for heavy-duty and high-power mechanical equipment. The output torque is stable, but due to the gap between the teeth and the fatigue of the tooth surface, the noise itself is relatively large.


Application range of orbital motors and gear motors

Orbital motors are suitable for high-precision, low-power, low-noise mechanical equipment such as aviation, machine tools, robots, and precision measuring instruments. The gear motor is suitable for high-power, heavy-duty, medium-low precision mechanical equipment such as construction machinery, lifting equipment, and metallurgical equipment.
