Hollow shaft gear reducer. (In Gear).Who: Harmonic Drive A harmonic drive is an input/output gear reduction mechanism. Very high reduction ratios are possible in a small volume (100:1 is possible in the space that Planetary gears typically only produce 10:1). History The basic concept was introduced by C.W. Musser in 1957. Technologies (Peabody, MA) What: Hollow shaft RV-C gear reducer Why you should care: The RV-C's hollow shaft design allows for running vacuum lines, wiring harnesses, concentric shafting shaft·ing n. 1. A system of shafts, as in a mechanical device, for transmitting motion or power. 2. Material from which shafts are made. 3. and cooling lines through center holes that range in size from 31 mm to 138 mm. Pertinent Data: The RV-C offers high torsional tor·sion n. 1. a. The act of twisting or turning. b. The condition of being twisted or turned. 2. rigidity and an overload torque capacity, which is a whopping 500% of rated torque. The rated torque range is 867--27,754 lbs. with a peak torque range of 4,337--138,768 lbs. Total lost motion including backlash, spring rate and hysteresis hysteresis (hĭs'tərē`sĭs), phenomenon in which the response of a physical system to an external influence depends not only on the present magnitude of that influence but also on the previous history of the system. tops out at only one arc minute. Applications for the RV-C include rotary tables, wrist axes and welding positioners. More Info: Enter 1. |
