Load Ratings

PlanetaryX

Static Load Ratings

The following torque measurements are for a static load condition. The torques listed are for the output of the stage.

Cartridge	Max Torque
3:1	320 Nm (No Failure)
4:1	320 Nm (No Failure)
5:1	310 Nm (Failure)
1/2" Hex Output	320 Nm (No Failure)

Cartridge Load Ratings

The following chart shows which gear cartridge configurations are allowable with different motors. Cells shown in GREEN are allowed and cells shown in RED are not allowed.

Cantilevered loads on the output shaft put additional stress on the gearbox and can reduce its torque capacity. Shock loads may exceed the gearbox's rated limits, even when the steady-state torque is within the allowable range.

These load ratings are based on the default current limits of the TalonFX and a single Kraken X60. We do not recommend exceeding 125:1 overall reduction on a PlanetaryX assembly. At reductions above 125:1, the 5:1 stage has a factor of safety below 1.1.
