# High Torque and Shock Loads on Low-Speed Gearbox Stages

## High Torque and Shock Loads on Low-Speed Stages

Low-speed gearbox stages bear significant torque and shock loads during startup, shutdown, and sudden load changes. Bearings must withstand these extreme conditions.

## Load Characteristics

- High Torque
- Shock loads during startup and shutdown
- Sudden load changes
- Vibration from uneven rotation

## Solutions

Spherical roller bearings and tapered roller bearings with increased load capacity are used. Bearings with reinforced cages are employed. Bearings with extended service life are recommended.
