High-Precision Motion Benefits of Zero-Backlash HarmonicDrive® Strain Wave Gear Technology
Strain wave gear-based motion control offers a robust and easy-to-use gearhead/gearbox solution that offers superior performance for a variety of high-precision motion control applications. In this webinar, Harmonic Drive LLC will explain how this deceptively simple gear-based motion solution that can handle high torques by reducing drive ratios in a smooth continuous motion, and in a compact design that consists of only three basic parts: a wave generator, flexspline, and circular spline.
In this webinar you’ll learn about key design and performance features to understand how the technology works and how available solutions from Harmonic Drive LLC may suit your automation needs.
What you will learn about:
- The strain wave gear principle and an overview of solutions and applications
- How this method can achieve extremely high reduction ratios without gear size or weight varying
- Benefits that include zero backlash, high torque, compact size, including hollow shaft configurations
- Excellent positional accuracy and repeatability in a robust and easy-to-use gearhead/gearbox solution
