Important information! 

The  torques  and  positioning  forces  specified  above  are  nominal  values. 
They are reached when the  supply voltage corresponds to the rated volt-
age. 

– 

In some cases, the actual torque may be higher than the rated torque! 

– 

In  some  cases,  the  actual  positioning  force  may  be  higher  than  the 
rated positioning force! 

Gearbox
