Micromech is pleased to announce the launch of a new web site for the new Stealth planetary gearboxes PS and RS series that are available in a new high quality and high performance specification

Under the Stealth brand Micromech has been appointed to be the prime distributor to offer these new, excellent Parker EME gearheads.  Micromech as their existing major motion partner still has access to all the other gearboxes enabling support in the market for current and legacy products.

With the ability to now provide a highly competitive range it was decided to offer our customers a new experience in gearbox supply and introduce a dedicated Stealth website giving technical details, sizing software and significantly prices.

The Stealth helical planetary gearheads incorporate design enhancements to provide superior performance for the most demanding high-performance applications. The gearboxes incorporate dual angular contact bearings, providing higher radial load capacities while maintaining high input speeds.

The key Stealth construction features are: complete helical planetary design, integral ring gear cut into stainless steel housing, plasma nitrided gears, a clever patented ‘servo mount’ for error free mounting, large bearing structure for high radial and axial loads, as well as sealed for IP65 protection.
Design enhancements also include full compliment needle bearings allowing for increased service life and extended warranties. In addition to this internal design changes and optimised gearing geometry’s allow for one fill level for any orientation, resulting in shortened part number designation and simplified ordering.

They are currently offered in the most popular frame sizes of 60, 90 and 115. Universal mounting kits provide a common mounting method, which is used across multiple product lines to promote quicker deliveries and easier mounting to any servo motor.

The deliveries are very good with standard Stealth gearheads now available with only a 5 to 7 day leadtime. Then to make things even better they are now backed by a full two-year warranty on all mechanical components.
This is just the start. the whole Parker range of gearheads is being completely re-designed to bring them in line to this superb and innovative upgrade. Over the coming months we will advise customers about the latest additions.
The principal definition of stealth is the characteristic of ‘moving with extreme care and quietness’, we think engineers will be delighted at just how these gearheads meet that description.
