September 6, 2016 - High precision gearing specialist, Harmonic Drive UK, has launched CSF-2UP, a gearbox range designed for medical technology, robotics and measuring-instrument applications. Expected to be worth US$7.85bn by 2020, according to MarketsandMarkets, the smart and collaborative robotics sector is particularly dependent on compact and ultra lightweight gears.
The CSF-2UP gearboxes form part of the CSF Series, a range characterised by its short length and low weight. The gearbox range is available in three sizes, with gear ratios of 30, 50 and 100 at a repeatable peak torque from 1.8 to 28Nm. The gearbox can accept maximum speeds of up to 8500rpm.
The CSF-2UP gearbox is designed for use in high precision positioning tasks in applications with limited space, such as jointed arm robots, measuring instruments and various uses in the growing medical technology market.
