Harmonic Drive has integrated high precision, compact design and reliability to develop the new range of HPGP planetary gears. Unlike conventional planetary gears, the new series offers consistent ...

Engineers at IMS Gear Planetary Gears Inc., with U.S. headquarters in Virginia Beach (www.imsgear.com), have designed a range of modular planetary gears that give OEMs and designers a choice of over ...

For applications with inflexible torque demand, sometimes designers specify oversized and less efficient gearsets. Other times, manufacturing engineers sacrifice torque in their designs to minimize ...

Gears provide two main functions in motion-control systems. In power systems, they match the relatively low-speed, high-torque requirement of the load to the high-speed, low-torque, high-efficiency ...

Both transmissions have a planetary gear design and are ready for up to 400 Nm of input torque. The rear coaxial unit weighs just 16 kg and has an integrated parking lock for very high loads.
