 HIGH TORQUE is particularly 

well suited for high-precision applica-
tions where high torsional rigidity is 
required.

Perfection in a new dimension

Looking for a solution that is tailored to 
your needs? Your requirements are our 
challenge. 
More performance in less space! 
alpheno

®

 – The sure way to success.

Maximum power density

And the torques?
Although the previous series achieved outstanding 
results, we managed to increase the torques by up 
to 40%. Raising the limits – Typical of WITTENSTEIN 
alpha!

Versatile installation

In whatever position you install it –

 

your gearhead 

always contains the same quantity of oil/grease.
The gearheads are so flexible, you can install them 
vertically, horizontally or with the output facing up-
wards or downwards.

Simple motor installation

Safe, and secure motor installation is possible in 
a single step. The WITTENSTEIN alpha-patented 
motor mounting is also available with integrated 
thermal length compensation as an option.

Maximum positioning accuracy

Upon request, the High End planetary gearheads are 
available with torsional backlash of less than one arc 
minute. This significantly increases the positioning 
accuracy of your application.

 HIGH SPEED

The classic all-rounder among planetary 
gearheads

The standard version is ideally suited 
for high positioning accuracy and highly 
dynamic cyclic operation. 
The SP

 HIGH SPEED is particularly well 

suited for applications with maximum 
speeds during continuous operation. 

Superior running thanks to helical teeth

Our High End planetary gearheads “whisper”. 

 

Compared to the straight-toothed gearheads, our 
helical-toothed gearheads are 6 dB(A) quieter dur-
ing operation. And what a difference 64 instead of 
70 decibels makes to added value. You will barely 
notice vibrations because these gearheads run so 
smoothly.

World-class lifespan

The seal rings on the High End planetary gearheads 
were specially developed and the material and ge-
ometry are both optimized to ensure an extremely 
long lifespan!

Perfect is not yet perfect enough

The performance capability of the planetary gear reducer 
reaches a new dimension with alpheno

®

. While others are still 

dealing with precision and operating noise, WITTENSTEIN 

 

alpha is once again a step ahead. alpheno

®

 has already been 

used in highly challenging applications where the individual 

requirements exceed the performance capabilities of the stan-
dard product range for several years. In comparison to the SP

it was possible to increase the power density by up to 140% 
with alpheno

®

 – exceeding all current standards in the market.

the new high-performance planetary gearhead

The new standard for flange gearheads

The RP

gearhead series 

combines all the advan-
tages of the familiar gear-
head series.
Features include reduced 
backlash of < 1 arcmin, 
maximum power density, 
modular mounting position, 
simple motor installation, 
superior running thanks 
to helical teeth, maximum positioning accuracy and 
world-class lifespan.

The RP

 · If your drive requires maximum performance
 · If you value world-class engineering
 · If you require an even more compact system

High Performance Linear System

For use where the individual 

requirements far exceed what has 

previously been possible. 

Compared to the industry standard, 

the values have been improved by 

150% on average!

The integrated slots reduce the design 

and installation requirements to 

a minimum. 

The pinions, which are specially 

adapted to the gearhead enable  

the transmission of maximum  

moving forces.

The RPK

+

, which combines the hypoid angle section and the high 

performance planetary gearhead RP

+

 completes the series. 

The RP

+

 is also available as the RPM

+

 actuator version. The RPM

+

 

combines the advantages of the RP

+

 series in an even more compact 

design. Thanks to its special design, the permanently excited servo 
motor ensures maximum power density.
