Applied Motion 17PL0100 Planetary Gearhead HT17

Applied Motion 17PL0100 HT17 is a planetary gearhead designed for HT17-series high-torque NEMA 17 step motors, delivering torque multiplication in a compact footprint. The 17PL0100 configuration is paired with an E2-500-197-IH encoder, enabling incremental feedback when used with a compatible drive that supports encoder input. Planetary gearing provides efficient power transmission in a small form factor that aligns with the standard NEMA 17 mounting pattern, making it suitable for precision positioning and speed control in automation projects. This combination—HT17 motor, planetary gearhead, and E2-500-197-IH encoder—supports encoder-assisted control with feedback when paired with an appropriate motion controller, improving repeatability in repetitive moves and smoother operation in constrained spaces. Because of the standard mounting pattern, it integrates with HT17 motors and applications that require compact, modular gear reduction in robotics and automation tasks.
