GU-H67 Helical Inline Gear Unit

The workhorse of the inline family. Deeper cooling ribs and a wider bearing span than the H37, so it holds full catalogue torque through long continuous shifts without an auxiliary fan.

How this frame is rated

The GU-H67 carries 480 Nm of rated output torque, calculated on tooth flank and root capacity to international gear rating standards at a service factor of 1.0. Ratios run from i 4.35 to i 186.9, which at 1450 rpm input puts the output shaft between 7.8 and 333.3 rpm. Motors from 0.25 to 7.5 kW bolt to the input.

With the largest listed motor the frame reaches its mechanical torque limit at about i 10.1. Below that ratio the motor governs and output torque still climbs with the reduction; above it the frame governs, and extra ratio buys you speed reduction only. That is the knee you can see on the characteristic chart further down this page.

What usually decides the selection

Thermal capacity is 12.4 kW of continuous throughput without auxiliary cooling at 20 °C ambient. Permissible radial force at the shaft mid-point is 8,400 N; move the load towards the shaft end and that figure falls quickly, so tell us where the pulley actually sits. Housing is Grey cast iron, protection IP65, and the unit weighs 62 kg dry.
