1. Product Overview

GPX 8 is a compact planetary gearhead with an outer diameter of 8mm in the Swiss maxon GPX series. It is originally manufactured in Germany and is specifically matched with DCX 8 brushed and ECX SPEED 8 brushless micro motors. It belongs to a micro reduction transmission unit with small volume, high precision, and high power density. Compared with GPX 6, the torque carrying capacity is greatly improved while maintaining a micro body. It is mainly used in minimally invasive medical devices, precision optics, micro robots, portable analytical instruments, and airborne micro actuators.

2. Product Version Classification (Four Mainstream Configurations)

  1. A Standard Version (General Metal Model): Steel planetary gears, suitable for general automation and medical scenarios. Standard equipped with ball output bearings.

  2. C Ceramic Planetary Model: The planetary gears are made of ceramic materials, which are wear-resistant, have higher ultimate torque, and double the continuous service life. It is suitable for long-term uninterrupted operation.

  3. UP Reversible High-Performance Model: The planetary gears are equipped with built-in micro needle roller bearings, with reversible transmission, low friction loss, and higher efficiency. It has force feedback characteristics and is suitable for surgical robots and flight control feedback mechanisms.

  4. Customized Derivative Models: Low-backlash high-precision model, low-noise plastic planetary model, sterilization-adapted model, and model with shaft seal for dust and water prevention.

3. Core Standard Technical Parameters (A Standard Version)

1. Basic Dimensions and Weight

  • Outer Diameter: 8 mm

  • Reduction Stages: 1/2/3/4/5 stages of modular superposition

  • Total Weight of the Machine: Approximately 4 g

  • Output Support: Double ball bearings, with better rigidity than the micro gearbox with sliding bearings

  • Operating Temperature: -15℃ ~ +80℃

2. Comparison Table of Standard Reduction Ratio and Torque

Table

Stages Standard Reduction Ratio Continuous Rated Torque (N・m) Short-Term Peak Torque (N・m)
Grade 1 4:1 0.010 0.020
Grade 2 16:1 / 36:1 0.020 / 0.030 0.040 / 0.060
Grade 3 64:1 / 216:1 0.040 / 0.060 0.080 / 0.120
Grade 4 256:1 / 1296:1 0.080 / 0.090 0.160 / 0.180
Grade 5 1024:1 0.100 0.200

3. Rotational Speed, Efficiency, and Positioning Accuracy

  • Continuous input rotational speed: 12000 rpm

  • Short intermittent input rotational speed: 20000 rpm

  • Transmission efficiency: 86% for single-stage, efficiency decreases slightly with the increase of stages

  • No-load backlash: ≤1.8° for single-stage, ≤2.8° for multi-stage, with excellent positioning accuracy

  • Continuous transmission power: 0.84 W

4. Output shaft load capacity (5mm outside the flange)

  • Dynamic axial load: 5 N

  • Radial load: 7 N

  • Allowed press-fitting pressure: 10 N

IV. Advantages of Core Products

  1. Micro-sized with large torque: Only 8mm in outer diameter, continuous torque of 0.1Nm, 3 times the load capacity improvement compared to GPX 6, achieving large output in a small space;

  2. Modular free selection: Full coverage from 1 to 5 levels, full-range reduction ratios from 4 to 1024. The output shaft diameter, flange, bearing, and gear material can be custom-made according to requirements;

  3. Coaxial direct-mount motor: It can be perfectly connected to the DCX8/ECX8 series motors without an adapter. It has high coaxiality and no additional clearance;

  4. Low noise and vibration: With precision-ground tooth surfaces and uniform meshing, it is suitable for silent and precision equipment such as endoscopes and microscopes;

  5. Multiple materials for different working conditions: Metal/ceramic/plastic planetary gears are available, meeting the requirements of cost, service life, and silence;

  6. Reversible transmission (UP version): The force at the output end can be reversely transmitted to the motor to achieve tactile force feedback. It is the core transmission part of minimally invasive surgical robots.

V. Typical application scenarios

  1. High-end medical equipment: Minimally invasive surgical instruments, endoscope steering drives, biopsy probes, micro infusion pumps, dental micro grinding units;

  2. Precision optical instruments: Automatic focusing of microscope lenses, laser fine-tuning galvanometers, optical path adjustment of spectrometers, portable fundus cameras;

  3. Micro robots: Pipeline inspection micro robots, bionic fingertip actuators, micro clamping mechanisms;

  4. Aviation and intelligent equipment: Small UAV servos, airborne micro valves, joystick force feedback mechanisms;

  5. Industrial precision detection: Micro detection probes, handheld analytical instruments, small optical scanning modules.
