ZK bevel gearboxes from ZIMM are available with different ratios to precisely adapt speed and torque to the respective application. The selection of the ratio is based on the requirements for motion, power transmission and installation situation.
Which ratios are available for ZK bevel gearboxes?
ZK bevel gearboxes from ZIMM are available with different ratios. The following ratios are available, among others:
- 1:1
- 2:1
- 3:1
What does a 1:1 ratio mean?
With a 1:1 ratio, the speed remains unchanged between input and output.
What characterizes the 2:1 and 3:1 ratios?
With the 2:1 and 3:1 ratios, the speed is reduced and the torque is increased accordingly. These ratios are suitable for applications with higher force requirements.
How does the ratio affect the application?
The selected ratio influences the relationship between speed and torque in the drive system. It is a key factor in the design of the overall application.
