Refining Compact Drive Solutions: The maxon Strain Wave Gearhead

maxon is pleased to announce the introduction of its strain wave gearhead technology to the Australian market. Designed for applications demanding exceptional torque density and zero backlash, this gearhead offers engineers and designers a powerful new solution in compact motion control.

The strain wave gearhead is now available for integration with maxon’s modular drive systems, providing unmatched performance in tight spaces. Ideal for robotic joints, surgical instruments, and precision automation, this advanced gear technology delivers long-lasting reliability and peak precision.

Key Features:

• Zero backlash for ultimate positioning accuracy
• High torque density in a compact, lightweight form
• Hollow-shaft design for cable and media feed-through
• Sizes available from 55mm to 62mm diameter
• Customisable gear ratios and integration options
• Seamless compatibility with EC frameless motors and encoders
• Torque to 37Nm

With high shock-load resistance and excellent repeatability, the strain wave gearhead is engineered to handle dynamic loads and precision tasks with ease. It’s an optimal solution for compact robotic actuators, collaborative arms, and wearable exoskeletons.

Modular Integration and Swiss Engineering

As part of maxon’s precision system architecture, the strain wave gearhead is designed to be easily combined with motors, sensors, and controllers. This modular approach enables rapid prototyping and streamlined development, backed by Swiss-engineered quality and local Australian support.
