Motor Combinations
GPT gearhead series can be combined with a wide range
of DC motors, 4-pole and 2-pole brushless motors, for
smaller diameter size also combination with stepper
motors are available. This gearhead series are optimized to
leverage at best the torque and speed range of the
different FAULHABER motor families.
Combinations with motors come assembled from the
factory. Motor-gearhead combination cannot be assem-
bled other than on the factory line.
When combining a motor with GPT gearhead series, the
motor should be selected with enough performance
capabilities to avoid bringing the motor at a too high
steady temperature. Such high temperatures would
produce extra heat transfer towards the gearhead and
could degrade prematurely the lubricant, thus impacting
service life of the combination unit.
To achieve long service life, a general guideline is to
ensure that the motor won’t exceed a temperature of 60°C
to 70°C at steady state during operation. Such motor
temperatures will avoid premature degradation of
lubricant inside the gearhead.
Modifications and standard options
GPT gearhead series are available with a big range of
standard options and modifications. Some of these options
are made available to match particular requirements
related to specific applications with special ambient
conditions, others are made to ease the product integra-
tion inside the application system, others to enhance
particular performance parameters for specific needs.
Such product options refers to:
■ output shaft shape and dimensions
■ ambient conditions like particular temperature range or
special environmental conditions as vacuum.
■ different motor cable or terminals orientation when
integrating the combination unit inside the application
■ other requirements related to output load fixed on the
output shaft
Most options are modifying the basic product so that
characteristics will differ from the performance of the
standard version. This latest aspect should be considered
when selecting an option and eventual questions should
be addressed to your local sales representative.

The resolution of an absolute encoder is defined via the
number of steps per revolution and is specified in bits.
Absolute encoders generate a serial code from multiple
bits. The FAULHABER Absolute Encoders support the SSI
B Interface with BISS-C Protocol. BISS-C supports communica-
tion with clock speeds of up to 2 MHz. Here, the absolute
position value (DATA) is transferred in synch with a cycle
