    The PK/PM 22 Series of planetary gears feature a revised gear design with optimized noise behavior, improved efficiency and a new rigid flange design. The PM 22 has a steel internal ring gear with an external black powder coating and optimized geartooth profiles that reduce gear noise and provide smoother transmission of motion. Output torque values are up to 1.0 Nm under continuous load.

    The allplastic PK 22 planetary drive has flanges, planetary gear carriers ,and all gearing made of plastic. These units are for applications where high torque values and ambient temperatures are not decisive factors.
