Products & services

DynaGear - High dynamic servo right-angle gearbox
+ Hypoid toothing + High input speed at middle and highest torque + Ratios i = 3:1 up to i = 30:1 single-stage + Ratios i = 18:1 up to i = 100:1 two-stage + Torque up to 1440 Nm + Low backlash ≤ 2 arcmin + Lubricated for life, the gearboxes are virtually maintenance-free (when used under normal conditions). + The high efficiency rating of up to 96% saves energy costs + Variable ratios within one gearbox size + Variable motor mounting via lantern and coupling

PlanetGear - For Power & Precision
Low backlash planetary gearboxes with maximum precision: + Planetary gearboxes with helical teeth + Sizes from 42 to 285 + Ratios from i = 3:1 to i = 100:1 + Backlash ≤ 1 arcmin + Output as solid shaft or flange + Variable motor mounting via flange and clamping bush

Nidec DESCH FLEXWAVE - Strain Wave Gear Technology
FLEXWAVE is a compact harmonic gear reduction mechanism that achieves zero backlash, as well as exceptional positioning accuracy, torque density and repeatability. FLEXWAVE consists of three internal elements – the flexspline, the circular spline and the wave generator. The elasticity properties of the flexspline and the teeth differential between the flexspline and the circular spline result in its unique reduction characteristics. FLEXWAVE comes in various form factors, including component sets, simple contained assemblies and complete gear units. Cup, hat, solid and hollow input shaft configurations give engineers true freedom in design. FLEXWAVE is also available in Ultra-Flat and High Torque variations for applications with demanding footprint and performance requirements. Dimensions are interchangeable against industry standards, making it easier to implement in legacy equipment. When compared with other gear technologies, FLEXWAVE offers the following advantages: +Exceptional Repeatability and Positional Accuracy +Zero Backlash +High Torque Density +High Efficiency Ratings +High Reduction Ratios in a Single Stage +Lightweight and Compact +High Torsional Stiffness +Fully Back Drivable These characteristics enable FLEXWAVE to be the superior choice for Robotics, Machine Tool, Medical Equipment, Semiconductor Manufacturing, Satellite Communications and Assembly Automation applications.

EvoGear - The allrounder amongst servo right-angle gearboxes
