Application and Design  

2.1

 

Application 

The ZF-DUOPLAN two-speed gearbox is mainly 
used in machine tool drives. 

By way of example, the gearbox can be used in 
turning machines (horizontal B5) or machining 
centers (vertical V1) thanks to its variable installa-
tion position. The gearbox is also suitable for use 
in many systems in which torque increase or 
speed reduction is required. 

The gearboxes have coaxial output and are suit-
able for the high speeds generated in machine tool 
construction.
