Gear made of plastic - extra light and low-wear

Every robot is as good as its gearboxes

In robots, robotic gears are the link between the motor, which supplies the drive energy, and a machine part that carries out a planned movement.

Gearboxes made of high-performance plastic: Lubrication-free, lightweight and shock-resistant
All drygear® joints are modular; they can be extended as required and integrated into existing systems. The drygear® gearboxes are particularly favoured for robot arms for quality control or sorting. But the gearboxes are also used for rotary axes or sliding applications.
