April 23, 2014 - Harmonic Drive introduces HPGP Planetary Gearhead based upon high precision Harmonic Planetary gears. The HPGP series achieves 33% higher torque while maintaining high precision through use of ring-gear technology and high moment stiffness through use of an integral cross-roller output bearing. The HPGP series achieves longer life and can allow smaller gearheads to be used A Quick-Couple input shaft and motor flange allow easy mounting to a servo motor.
Key Features:
- 33% higher rated torque than the original HPG Series
- Same compact design
- High precision
- Innovative Ring Gear provides backlash compensation for the life of the gear
- Backlash <1 arc-min is available(size #14-65) (Standard backlash specification is < 3 arc-min)
- Cross roller bearing for high load capacity and moment stiffness
- Easy mounting to a wide variety of servo motors
- Reduction ratios between 4:1 and 45:1
Applications:
- Robots: SCARA, Parallel link robots
- Machine Tool: Gantry robots, Linear axis
- Packaging machines
