Vogel precision gearboxes deliver their assembly, handling and robot technology worldwide

Wilhelm Vogel GmbH has nearly 60 years successful history as one of the worldwide leading suppliers of a full range of precision gearboxes, something that is no small feat in this specialist segment of the drives & automation industry.

This year at the Automatica fair in Munich, plant operators, manufacturers of general mechanical engineering, as well as design engineers will attend with the goal of obtaining valuable information on the current requirements of the industry to help optimise product lines for their respective companies.

Vogel’s planetary and innovative small planetary gearboxes provide high precision in positioning due to extremely small backlash and high torsional stiffness, now standard design.

The combinations of servo motors with Vogel’s gearboxes developed by the company from Oberboihingen near Stuttgart has provided highly successful: particularly the combination of servo motors with optimised servo spiral bevel gearboxes.

All ratios of the precise and powerful angular and axial gearboxes are manufactured mathematically exact giving high precision.

As Vogel products share modular components across all series, high ratio ranges as far as i= 245 can be achieved according to gearbox type. A further advantage for packaging installations, winding machines and many other types of machinery, are compact units such as hollow shaft gearboxes which are offerred in an output torque range from 15 Nm to 9000 Nm.

At Automatica Vogel will release their new catalogue “servo spiral bevel gearboxes and spiral bevel gearboxes in explosion proof versions, according to European Directive 94/9/EC (ATEX)”.

The product information provided by Vogel for design engineers, also the purchasing and technical documentation is complemented by the release of the popular CD ROM containing a multitude of helpful information. New CAD data for 2006 is available and the representation of the 2D and 3D files is now more detailed.
