RV reducer
Nabtesco, Zhejiang Shuanghuan
The transmission is achieved by multi-stage
reduction (the front stage of the planetary gear
reducer and the back stage of the cycloidal-pin
wheel reducer), which consists of more
components.
Harmonic reducer
HD, LHDS
The motion is transmitted through the elastic
deformation of the flex spline, which is mainly composed
of three core components: the flex spline, the circular
spline and the wave generator. Compared with RV and
other precision reducers, the material, size and weight of
the harmonic reducer are largely reduced.
Large size, high load capacity and high stiffness. Small size, high transmission ratio and high precision.
Generally used in multi-joint robots where heavy Generally used in small arm, wrist or hand of the robot.
