Harmonic Drives

The Harmonic Drives operate on a different principle from, and has capabilities beyond the scope of, conventional speed changers. It consists of a thin ring that deflects elastically as it rolls on the inside of a slightly larger rigid. Drives have been employed in a variety of applications that range from such low-cost consumer applications as vending machines and rotating home-television antennas to sophisticated systems for military and aerospace use. For applications that require the highest power density and accuracy, a strainwave gear is essential. The offered Harmonic Drives are very efficient and made for use in the industrial applications.
