Most of gear motors look the same which can be confusing to distinguish. While they appear similar, they have different configuration and each one is built for certain application. Among the various types of gear motors available in the market, one of the most common type is the hollow shaft gearmotors. They are widely used in pulley and lever systems. Same with other types of gearboxes, they come in different varieties as well. What makes them differ from other gear motors are the advantages they provide once you choose them for your application.
Compact Design
Unlike other types, hollow shaft gearmotors are compact, making them capable to fit in limited amount of space. You don’t have to worry about spacing since they can easily be installed and uninstalled as one single piece.
Flexibility
A hollow shaft gearmotor is flexible both in terms of its application and configuration. You can use a type for any application for so long that the intention is not entirely different but is correlated. You can never go wrong in using it on your specific application.
Durability
Majority of hollow shaft gearmotors are constructed with stainless steel or other metal. As such, they offer great resistance against corrosion and won’t get broken or damaged easily even applied with strong force or impact. This makes them very durable enough for you to use it over a long period of time.
Less Maintenance
The only major part that you should be concerned about and check regularly is the hollow shaft. Always see to it that it’s clean and no dust or debris stuck on it. Apart from that, you don’t have to be bothered by the other components. Moreover, being made of metal and durable, the gear won’t easily break so replacement is less likely be needed.
