SEW-EURODRIVE: XP series industrial gear units

July 25, 2019

The industrial gear units XP series are extremely space-saving planetary gear units for very high torque ratings up to 5 200 kNm. They enable specific drive solutions for applications in the high-performance area. An additional advantage: They are able to very flexibly customize the amount of stages and the individual gear ratios to your application.

Depending on the application, it is important for users and outfitters of systems to position gear units and motors separately from each other. We have designed our XP series as a stand-alone gear unit with a free input shaft for such purposes.

Do you need a primary gear unit? No problem. Select a gearmotor from our comprehensive modular concept. We will attach it directly to the planetary gear unit for you. Or you can combine the XP gear unit with an industrial gear unit from the X series.

You need even more power? No problem. We offer you project-specific industrial gear units from the XP series whose performance surpasses the stated torque range of 5 200 kNm.
