Andantex will unveil its latest generation of high-precision planetary reducers, built around its new EVO 1 (Evolution 1) technology, during IMTS 2022 at Booth 236016. Developed with machine tool performance in mind, EVO 1 is a new approach to driving machine tool axes. The EVO 1 mechanical gearing system approaches the performance of a linear motor at the lower price of a rack and pinion linear axis. Features include high stiffness, zero backlash and an ultra-minimal transmission error. This new design provides vibration-free motion and an optimum surface finish for the machined part.
At the show, Andantex will showcase its first range of redesigned planetary reducers featuring EVO 1 technology—the SRP, KRP, KRPX and DRP Series—which are all available in their existing sizes. The new design still features the breakthrough technologies that made this range of products a favorite for machine tool builders; small diameter integral output pinion, huge preloaded tapered roller output bearings helping to create maximum combined (radial, torsional and axial) stiffness, as well as Patented ZERO-BACKLASH DualDRIVE and TwinDRIVE solutions. In addition to the planetary reducers, visitors can also check out many other products from Andantex’s varied lineup, including:
- Linear and rotary axis drive systems.
- Two-speed spindle drive gearboxes
- Automatic lubrication systems.
- Merobel magnetic particle tension control systems.
