Harmonic Drive

A strain-wave drive combines a wave generator, a flexible toothed spline and a rigid circular spline. Deformation brings teeth into engagement, and the tooth-count difference produces reduction.

Product & engineering

Understand the product.

Harmonic Drive is a compact, high performance, precision reduction gear. It is one of the key components used in robotic products such as collaborative work robots. The gear consists of only 3 basic parts (Wave Generator, Flex spline, and Circular Spline). It provides excellent features not found in other speed reducers.

The flexible element is an intentional part of the mechanism. Torsional stiffness, hysteresis and repeated load affect how accurately the output follows reversal and changing torque.

Rated torque, acceleration and bearing support must be matched to the task. A compact reducer still needs suitable lubrication and control of moment loading at its output.

What turns activity into demand

Strain-wave gearing uses controlled elastic deformation to achieve compact reduction for precision motion.

The commercial boundary

Distinguish strain-wave gear components from complete actuators and planetary gearboxes.
