Digital Strain Wave Gear

Backlash-free strain wave gear with integrated smart sensors

Our digital gearboxes combine high-precision, backlash-free strain wave gear technology with smart sensor technology and artificial intelligence, without any change in size. The strain wave gears meet all the requirements for integration into intelligently networked and digital production processes and make a decisive contribution to increasing efficiency, optimizing performance, conserving resources and improving cost-effectiveness. All in all, this results in potential savings in the double-digit percentage range.

The digital gearbox integrates smart sensor technology with the same dimensions as a standard gearbox with comparable performance data and therefore offers a space-neutral solution for intelligent automation. Sensors determine torque, temperature and vibration. Combined with our practical experience, reliable conclusions can be drawn about the condition of the gearbox.

Continuous condition monitoring makes it possible to calculate the actual service life of the gearbox, identify gearbox faults, detect overloads, unsuitable operating points and cases of misuse, and create the conditions for sustainable optimization strategies and predictive maintenance concepts.

Product Features:
  • Smart sensor technology for data-based optimizations
  • Maximizing machine and robot availability
  • Space-neutral: Dimensions like a standard gearbox
