CCW Hollow Shaft Right Angle Planetary Gearbox for Automation
The CCW hollow shaft right angle planetary gearbox is designed for machines that require a 90-degree transmission arrangement together with a hollow output shaft.
A hollow bore can be useful when cables, shafts or other machine components need to pass through the center of the output assembly.
For automation equipment, this can make mechanical integration easier and reduce the amount of additional space required around the gearbox.
Why Choose a Hollow Shaft Gearbox?
A conventional solid output shaft occupies the center of the transmission path.
In some automated machines, however, the center area needs to remain available for:
Cables
Shafts
Sensors
Pneumatic lines
Mechanical components
Rotary fixtures
A hollow shaft gearbox provides an opening through the output section.
The CCW family includes hollow bore configurations with keyway output as well as other hollow output arrangements.
Hollow Bore with Keyway
The CCW-CRK configuration uses a hollow bore output with keyway.
This design provides a mechanical connection between the gearbox and the driven shaft while keeping the center of the gearbox available for the required shaft arrangement.
The output-end bearing uses a tapered roller bearing, while the bevel gear is made from high-strength carburized alloy steel and processed using grinding technology.
Compact 90 Degree Transmission
The CCW structure combines planetary input with bevel gear transmission.
The motor and output shaft can therefore be arranged at 90 degrees, which is useful for machinery with limited installation space.
Instead of using multiple separate transmission components to change the direction of rotation, a right-angle gearbox can provide the required arrangement within one housing.
Automation Applications
The hollow shaft configuration is particularly useful in applications where the center of rotation needs to remain accessible.
Typical applications include:
Rotary automation equipment
Positioning systems
Conveyor machinery
Packaging equipment
Material handling
Rotary tables
Automated production equipment
Machine-building projects
The exact model should be selected according to output torque, shaft dimensions and external loads.
Rotating Platform Applications
The CCW family also includes flange output configurations.
The official CCW-2P product information notes that its flange output and base mounting design can be used for large-load rotating platform applications.
For a rotary platform, engineers should consider the output torque together with radial force, axial force and overturning moment.
Gear and Bearing Construction
The CCW transmission uses high-strength components for the right-angle section.
The bevel gear is manufactured from carburized alloy steel and ground to improve transmission performance. The tapered roller bearing at the output side provides support for axial loading.
The gearbox housing is made from high-strength aluminum alloy, providing a combination of structural strength and relatively low housing weight.
Maintenance-Free Operation
The gearbox is filled with imported grease and is designed for maintenance-free operation under the specified working conditions.
This makes the gearbox easier to integrate into equipment where regular gearbox lubrication would be inconvenient.
