100:1 Servo Gear Reducer Quick Fit Checker

Input motor, duty, and precision constraints to screen if a 100:1 reducer path is viable before RFQ.

This checker is a gate-0 screen and does not replace full thermal, life, and control-loop validation.

No result yet.

Run the checker to get topology recommendation, reflected inertia estimate, and next action.

100:1 is usually a stage-boundary decision, not a single-number purchase

APEX PGII public data splits 2-stage ratios at 12-100 and 3-stage ratios at 120-1000, with efficiency floors dropping from >=94% to >=91%, so exact 100:1 must be treated as a stage decision, not only a ratio label.

Precision expectations can force topology changes before torque becomes the bottleneck

Neugart PSFN and Harmonic CSF-GH public pages show materially different backlash/repeatability classes near 100:1, so precision target can force topology change even when nominal torque looks feasible.

Inertia reflection improves rapidly at 100:1, but control tuning risk does not disappear

Reflected inertia drops with ratio squared (Jload / i²), yet very low reflected values can still require loop tuning and resolution checks at commissioning.

Service-factor logic is duty-dependent and not directly vendor-comparable

SEW planning guidance states service-factor derivation is not standardized and can vary by manufacturer; starts/hour, operating time, and load classification must be normalized before cross-vendor ranking.

Worm self-locking behavior is a boundary condition, not a free safety feature

SEW and maxon both document self-locking conditions around forward efficiency <=0.5 at high worm ratios and warn against treating this as universal motion behavior; hoist safety still needs dedicated safety design.

Standards scope and revision status are part of engineering risk

ISO 6336-1:2019 (confirmed in 2025) is validated for involute spur/helical scope only and explicitly excludes assembled-system assurance; AGMA standards are revised over time, so revision lock is part of project risk control.

Commercial parity remains uncertain without normalized RFQ templates

Open pages rarely provide transaction-normalized price and life data under one identical duty profile, so cross-brand ranking still needs standardized RFQ collection.

Key Numbers and Decision Meaning

Numbers below are decision anchors for pre-RFQ screening. They are not universal guarantees and must be verified against final model and test conditions.

MetricPublished ContextWhy It MattersSource Family
Planetary stage split at 100:1APEX PGII public ranges: 2-stage 12-100 and 3-stage 120-1000; published efficiency floors: >=94% (2-stage) and >=91% (3-stage).A 100:1 requirement can sit at the handoff between stage architectures with different loss behavior.APEX PGII product page
Harmonic 100:1 precision corridorHarmonic CSF-GH lists ratio options including 50/80/100/120/160, repeatability around ±4 to ±10 arc-sec, and model-level 100:1 entries (e.g., CSF-32-100-GH standard accuracy 1 arcmin).When lost-motion target is tight, harmonic can be a first-branch option at 100:1.Harmonic Drive CSF-GH page
Precision planetary baseline near 100:1Neugart PSFN public tables include up to ratio 100 with efficiency 96-97% and reduced backlash options down to <1 arcmin on larger frame sizes.Mainstream planetary can stay viable for precision targets when backlash class is explicitly selected.Neugart PSFN page
Cycloidal RV precision baselineNabtesco RV-E public feature list states backlash <1 arcmin with low-lost-motion positioning context.RV-class remains a practical branch for high-shock precision duty around 100:1.Nabtesco RV-E page
Inertia reflection lawmaxon technical support states reflected load inertia scales with 1 / i² after gearing.At 100:1, large pre-gear inertia ratios can shrink quickly, but tuning quality still needs verification.maxon support note
Load-class boundary for service factorSEW 2026 guidance defines mass-acceleration load classes by fa threshold: I <= 0.2, II <= 3, III <= 10, then applies starts/hour and duty time to derive fB.Without load classification and cycle data, service-factor claims cannot be transferred to your project.SEW application service factor pages
Service-factor numeric exampleSEW planning example: mass acceleration factor 2.5 (class II), 14 h/day, 300 cycles/hour => required service factor about fB = 1.51.Nominal torque pass alone is not enough; cycle profile can force frame upsizing.SEW project planning docs
Worm self-locking boundarySEW and maxon references note self-locking behavior around worm forward efficiency <= 0.5 at very high ratios, with explicit safety caveats.Do not assume reversible behavior or use self-locking as the only safety mechanism.SEW + maxon self-locking notes
High-ratio backdriving cautionmaxon guidance flags very high ratios (around i > 100) as potentially non-backdrivable depending on drivetrain conditions.Use caution when reversible motion or compliance recovery is required.maxon gear behavior note
ISO 6336 validation windowISO 6336-1:2019 (confirmed in 2025) is validated for involute spur/helical gears with pressure angle 15°-25°, helix angle up to 30°, and contact ratio 1.0-2.5.Outside this scope, rating transfer should be treated as extrapolation and validated by test/experience.ISO 6336-1:2019

FAQ by Decision Intent

100:1 Decision Basics

Is 100:1 always a planetary-only decision?

No. Planetary is often the default branch, but precision and shock requirements can push harmonic or cycloidal options.

Why does this page use a strict 90:1 to 110:1 band?

The keyword intent is 100:1. Outside that band, the page keeps results in review mode to avoid false certainty.

Can I test 130:1 here?

Yes, as broad screening. The tool will still flag boundary review because it is outside strict 100:1 intent.

Why is worm not a default in this checker?

For precision-servo 100:1 intent, worm often brings higher sliding-loss and self-locking boundary conditions, so it is comparison-only by default.

Performance and Reliability

How should I read reflected inertia output?

Treat it as a screening signal derived from 1 / i² scaling. Final loop stability still needs full tuning and structural checks.

Why can I get review even when torque looks feasible?

Backlash, starts/hour, ratio drift, topology mismatch, and standard-scope limits can independently trigger review status.

Does high ratio always improve motion quality?

Not automatically. It can reduce reflected inertia but may also affect reversibility and control tuning behavior.

Can I compare service factor numbers across suppliers directly?

No. Public guidance shows service-factor derivation can vary by manufacturer, so normalize duty and assumptions first.

What is the most common sizing mistake at 100:1?

Locking selection on nominal torque and catalog labels without service-factor and precision-condition checks.

Execution and RFQ

What should be included in RFQ after using this tool?

Include torque profile, speed, ratio target, backlash target, duty, starts/hour, inertia assumptions, and topology preference.

How many supplier responses are enough for comparison?

At least three responses under one normalized duty + precision template is a practical baseline.

Can this page replace full engineering verification?

No. It is a gate-0 decision aid. Release still requires thermal, life, bearing, and integration verification.

Can worm self-locking be used as a sole safety function?

No. Public SEW notes explicitly reject using worm self-locking as the only hoist safety function.

What if we need both 100:1 and another reduction stage?

Split decisions by stage architecture: lock the 100:1 intent first, then evaluate additional ratio branches separately.
