Precision and Servo Gearboxes & Accesories for Any Motion Control Application
Sumitomo Drive Technologies showcases a wide range of precision and advanced servo gearboxes tailored for motion control applications, including zero-backlash cycloidal and harmonic drive/strain wave gearboxes, which offer compactness, minimal backlash, and high reduction ratios. Additionally, we offer actuators, AGV/AMR wheel drive solutions, and inline, right-angle, and planetary servo gearboxes like Servo Cyclo and Servo Bevel Buddybox® 4.
Zero Backlash Precision Gearboxes
Strain Wave/Harmonic Drive Gearbox
Our Strain Wave/Harmonic Gearbox, the E-Cyclo, blends the mechanics of elasticity and harmonic distortion for high-precision power transmission. These gearboxes are celebrated for their compact size, high reduction ratios, and minimal backlash, which are ideal for precision-critical applications.
Its torsional stiffness is approximately twice that of the general strain wave gear competitor due to our inclusion of the cycloidal tooth design, which is unique to the market.
Cycloidal Gearboxes
Our cycloidal gearbox line, the Fine Cyclo series, is distinguished by its unique cycloidal disk mechanism offering high precision, low backlash, and high load capacity. The Fine Cyclo® series features zero-backlash, single- and double-stage drives, providing compact design, high torsion, and low inertia, suitable for dynamic tasks.
Options include the high torque density DA-Series, efficient UA-Series, large bore C-Series, pre-staged T-Series, and high-load W-Series.
Servo Gearboxes
Inline & Right Angle Servo Gearboxes
We offer Inline and Right-Angle Servo Gearbox options designed for increased efficiency, durability, and precision.
The inline Servo Cyclo® gearbox is noted for its robust performance and versatility across applications. Its notable features include a 500% momentary shockload capacity and a wide ratio range.
Right-angle servo gearboxes, like the Servo Hyponic® and Servo Bevel BuddyBox® 4, provide compact efficiency and maximize torque.
Planetary Servo Gearboxes
The IB Series features low backlash planetary gearboxes designed for precision and efficiency, with backlash ranging between 3 and 15 arcmin. These compact, quiet units offer a broad torque range and support maximum input speeds up to 6000 rpm.
Equipped with large diameter precision angular contact ball bearings on the output shaft for handling large radial loads, these gearboxes are maintenance-free, lubricated for life, and facilitate quick installation to servo motors with a clamp ring design. This makes them ideal for servomotor applications requiring precise positioning and ease of installation.
