Reduction Gears
-
TWINSPIN
The notion "high precision reduction gear" designates the full integration of high precision reduction gear and high precision radial-axial bearing in a single unit. TwinSpin high precision reduction gears are designed for applications requiring a high reduction ratio, high kinematic accurancy, low lost motion, high moment capacity and high stiffness of a compact design with a limited installation zone, and low mass. This new transmission concept allows the utilization of the reduction gear TwinSpin in robotics and automation, machine tools, measuring equipments, navigation systems, aircraft industry, military and medicine field, wood-working field, printers branch, machines for textile industry and glass treatment, filling machines, etc.
The basic parts of TwinSpin high precision reduction gear are:
-
case - incoporates the high capacity, precision radial-axial output bearings integrated in the reduction gear
-
output sealling - on the output flange side, it prevents internal contamination and lubricant leakage from the reduction gear
-
flanges - input and output flanges are fixed together by fitted bolts, and rotate at reduced speed in the radial-axial output bearing relative to the case
-
shaft - high-speed member of the reduction mechanism carried by roller bearings in the flanges. Bearing raceways are ground directly on the shaft and the flangers. The shaft eccentrics rotationally support the trochoidal gears via roller bearings
-
trochoidal gearing - their trochoidal profile wih almost 50% simultaneous meshing ensures transmission of the high torque and backlash-free performance of the reduction gear
-
transformation member - transforms the planetary motion of the trochoidal gears to the rotary motion of a pair of flanges

ROTOSPIN
The product RotoSpin rotary module serves for the construction of facilities which are characterized in the rotary motion, speed reduction and the tilting moment transmission. RotoSpin is installed by the highly precise TwinSpin reductor, which ensures the rotary motion without backlash, high torsional and tilting stiffness. The construction of RotoSpin ensures easy connection to the frame and comfortable clamping of movable parts to the output flange. The modularity of construction enables to connect different types of servomotors. Therefore these modules are normally produced without the drive, but with such special-purpose connecting equipment that is required by a customer for a given type of engine.
Main parts
The module RotoSpin is built on basis of the bearing reducer TwinSpin. The module can be delivered without a servomotor, with demanded connecting dimensions or with a servomotor, according to particular requirements of the client. For handling with long components the module RS-A is used in connection with the suspensory module RS-C that can be equiped by a rotary pneumatic or electrical wiring for welding currents, controlling signals.
ROTOSPIN A
-
The RotoSpin rotary modules with type designation A are called flange ones. They feature a flange design, which allows the module’s attachment and building into a structure with a circular hole. According to their size, RotoSpins A are manufactured in four size categories with load capacities of 60, 250, 500, and 1000 kg respectively.
Due to their small dimensions and low weight, the RS-A modules are used mainly in moving parts of positioning devices. If the RS modules are loaded with a higher than allowed tilting moment or shock load, we use them in combination with a support bearing.
