Advanced technology in robotics and automation incorporates ROBONIC Drive reducers, ensuring high torque with smooth operation. CYKODRIVE cycloidal reducers are designed for compact efficiency and minimal backlash, while cross roller bearings enable precise load distribution. Combined, these advanced components deliver dependable motion control for modern robotic and automated applications.

ROBONIC Drive: The ROBONIC Drive series delivers high-torque, precise motion with innovative components: a thin-race ball bearing minimizes friction, a flexible cup gear absorbs shocks and misalignments, and a precision-cut internal gear minimizes backlash. This robust design is ideal for demanding robotics and automation applications.

• Optimized energy transmission

• Variable load resilience

• Enhanced structural integrity

• Customizable integration

Reduction mechanism

• The flex gear and elastic bearing form an elliptic shape with the wave generator inserted.

• The flex gear and internal gear are engaged at both ends of the long axis of the ellipse in a stable manner.

• With the internal gear fixed, when the wave generator is rotated clockwise, the flex gear (output) rotates counterclockwise. Its rotational speed is determined by the tooth count differential between two gears.

CYKODRIVE: The CYKODRIVE series employs a cycloidal pinwheel mechanism that delivers a compact design with exceptional torque and near-zero backlash. Its eccentric camshaft precisely reduces high-speed input to robust output, while the engineered meshing minimizes mechanical play for enhanced durability and energy efficiency, making it ideal for complex motion control scenarios.

• Exceptional backlash control

• Compact high reduction ratio

• Low noise and vibration

• Robust sealed construction

Cross roller bearings: Cross roller bearings are designed for high precision and durability by evenly distributing radial, axial and moment forces to ensure smooth, accurate rotation — even under heavy loads. Key benefits include:

• Even load distribution for enhanced stiffness and reduced friction

• High-quality, hardened construction for long-lasting performance

• Minimal maintenance requirements

• Versatile applications
