Description
EP300R2 Planetary Gearbox — Direct Replacement for Trasmital Bonfiglioli 300R2
The Ever Power EP300R2 is a Right-Angle planetary gearbox engineered as a dimensional and performance replacement for the Trasmital Bonfiglioli 300R2. Built on a two-stage architecture with a nominal ratio window of 12:1 to 40:1, it delivers approximately 2,500 Nm of nominal output torque while preserving the original mounting footprint so field retrofits are straightforward.

1. Product Overview
The EP300R2 belongs to Ever Power's heavy-duty planetary reducer line developed specifically as a form-fit-function alternative to Italian-built 300-frame originals. Industries routinely deployed on this frame include:
Core strengths at a glance: drop-in mounting interface, carburized and ground planet gears, modular stage stacking, IP65 shaft sealing, bi-directional torque rating, and synthetic-oil-ready housing ventilation. Every unit leaves the factory with a serial number, run-in report, and torque-versus-speed certificate.

3. Working Principle and Structure
The EP300R2 uses an epicyclic gear train in which a central sun gear drives three or four planet gears held by a rigid planet carrier. The planets orbit inside a stationary internal ring gear, with output taken from the carrier shaft. Torque is split across the planet set so each tooth carries only a fraction of total load, yielding very high torque density per unit mass. In multi-stage variants, successive planet sets are cascaded inside the same housing, multiplying the total ratio while keeping the output coaxial with the input.
The EP300R2 is built around a one-piece forged ductile-iron housing, a solid forged planet carrier, carburized and ground alloy steel gears, taper-roller output bearings, and twin-lip nitrile rotary seals with a dust-exclusion ring.
4. Core Advantages
5. Structure and Material Craftsmanship
Every EP300R2 housing is cast from GGG50 ductile iron and stress-relieved before machining to keep critical bores within 0.02 mm of tolerance over the full operating temperature range. Planet and sun gears use 20CrMnMo alloy steel, case-carburized to a surface hardness of HRC 58-62 over a 1.0 to 1.6 mm case depth, then profile-ground to ISO quality grade 6. The planet carrier is forged from SCM440 and induction hardened at bearing seats. Output shafts are manufactured from 42CrMo4V quenched-and-tempered steel, with keyways broached to ISO P9 and splines cut to DIN 5480. Bearing selection pairs SKF or NSK taper rollers on the output with precision deep-groove bearings on the input, sized for bucket-strike shock loads with a 1.6 minimum safety factor. The internal ring gear is a nitrided 34CrAlNi7 sleeve pressed into the housing, providing long wear life without weakening the casing. Read more about our factory capability.
6. Typical Application Scenarios
7. Selection Guide
To select the correct EP300R2 configuration, please confirm the following parameters. Our application engineers will size the unit against your duty cycle and environmental conditions.
- Application type: conveyor, mixer, winch, slew, pump, extruder, or other.
- Continuous output torque and peak torque in Nm, with expected duty cycle (hours per day, starts per hour).
- Input and output speed or the required reduction ratio.
- Input side: solid shaft coupling, IEC / NEMA motor flange, or hydraulic motor interface.
- Output side: solid shaft, hollow shaft with shrink disc, splined shaft, or flanged.
- Mounting orientation: horizontal, vertical up, vertical down, or inclined (specify angle).
- Ambient conditions: temperature range, humidity, dust, corrosive atmosphere, ATEX zone.
- Radial and axial external loads on the output shaft with lever arm if applicable.
- Service factor target and expected L10h bearing life.
- Accessories needed: backstop, brake, motor, cooling, oil heater, sensors.
