AW60BLF Series — 60mm BLDC Motor with Planetary Gearbox
The AW60BLF series pairs Apexwell's 60mm-diameter, 48V brushless DC motor with an M60GXR planetary gearbox, scaling rated output power from 100W to 400W across four body lengths. The gearbox platform is numerically identical to the AW57BLF's M56GXR — same 14 reduction ratios from 3.6:1 to 326:1 and the same up-to-60 N·m maximum permissible torque — so this line delivers the same gearbox output from a higher-voltage, higher-power motor stack.

Fourteen reduction ratios are available in total (3.6 to 326:1) — identical to the AW57BLF gearbox, since both series share the same underlying gearbox platform.
Wiring
Each AW60BLF motor exits with a 3-core sheathed power cable for the U/V/W windings and a separate 5-core shielded Hall sensor cable (+5VDC, GND, HU, HV, HW) at a 120° Hall electrical angle for standard 6-step commutation.
Typical Applications
With output power from 100W to 400W at 48V and reduction ratios up to 326:1, the AW60BLF series fits heavier conveyor drives, industrial pump and valve actuation, AGV/AMR drive wheels, and automation equipment where the AW57BLF's torque range fits the gearbox requirement but the driving application calls for a higher-power motor stack.
Why Choose the AW60BLF Gearmotor
Fourteen reduction ratios across four gear-train stages let one motor selection be tuned across a wide speed/torque window without redesigning the mechanical interface. Because the gearbox platform is shared with the AW57BLF, a design can move between the two motor frames without changing gearbox dimensions or ratio options. Custom shaft configurations and encoder feedback are available on request.
We can customize the electrical parameters of the motor and geometric dimensions such as the motor output shaft size according to customer requirements. Accessories including pulleys, eccentric gearboxes, planetary gearboxes and encoders can also be added.
