GUNT Determination of Gear Efficiency Test System with Drive and Brake Unit

The GUNT is a complete test system designed for the practical determination of gear efficiency. Equipped with a variable-speed three-phase AC drive motor and electromagnetic brake, the system allows for precise calculation of driving and braking power across two gear types: a two-stage spur gear and a worm gear. The setup mimics real-world drive technology applications, making it ideal for engineering education and laboratory training.
