Ultra-Lightweight Gear Units from Harmonic Drive LLC

New gear units boast ultra-thin profile and extreme lightweight.

Beverly, MA, August 10, 2021, -- Harmonic Drive LLC, a leader in high precision motion control adds three sizes to its new ultra-lightweight series gearheads. The three new models, 14, 17 and 20, are 50% lighter than the standard versions.  The new gear units will be on display at the ATX show in Anaheim, August 10-12.

This series features a newly engineered lightweight structure with an ultra-compact shape. The ULW line maintains the same performance standards as the CSF-2UH series. Ideal for use on end of arm axes for small industrial and collaborative robots, the CSF-ULW is also well suited for general industrial machinery where weight is a critical factor. CSF-ULW gears are available five sizes and six reduction ratios.

CSF-2UH-ULW:

• Zero backlash
• High accuracy
• Ultra-lightweight, mass: .09kg ~ .45kg
• Super flat configuration, 19mm ~ 31.5mm
• Outer diameter: φ 54mm (size 8) ~ 93mm (size 20)
• Reduction Ratios 30:1~160:1
• Available in 5 sizes

Known for its expert engineering and high-precision manufacturing, Harmonic Drive LLC products are relied upon every day for precision motion control.
