Strain wave gearing is a clever way to produce a high-efficiency, high ratio gearbox within a small space. It involves an outer fixed ring of gear teeth and an inner flexible ring of teeth which are ...

However, not all innovations are equal and nor do they follow a constant upward trend. Instead, their evolution takes the form of an S-shaped curve that reflects their typical lifecycle from early ...

3D printers are good for a lot of things, but making parts for power transmission doesn’t seem to be one of them. Oh sure, some light-duty gears and timing belt sprockets will work just fine when ...

Schaeffler's Precise Silent Constant (PSC) series planetary gear units that exhibit virtually no torsional backlash Heavy-duty (RT1) and standard-duty (RT2) precision strain wave gears from Schaeffler ...

As the demand for AI-driven solutions in the robotics industry rises, so does the strain on the hardware. For companies like Schaeffler, the opportunity to bring new system components—precision ...
