FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Ever-Power develops and manufactures cycloidal gear boxes to round off the product portfolio. In drive technology, especially in the field of device machinery, automation and robotics, these small designed, high transmission precision gear boxes are used especially to meet the best demands for stiffness, efficiency and efficiency. In addition to the constantly extended standard range, these cycloidal precision equipment boxes can be adapted to client requirements upon request.

Able to handle larger “shock” loads (>500%) of rating in comparison to worm, helical, etc.
High reduction ratios and torque density in a concise dimensional footprint
Exceptional “built-in” overhung load carrying capability
High efficiency (>95%) per reduction stage
Minimal reflected inertia to electric motor for longer service life
Just ridiculously rugged since all get-out
The overall Ever-Power design proves to be extremely durable, and it requires minimal maintenance following installation. The Ever-Power may be the most dependable reducer in the industrial marketplace, and it is a perfect suit for applications in large industry such as for example oil & gas, major and secondary steel processing, industrial food production, metal trimming and forming machinery, wastewater treatment, extrusion equipment, among others.

Cycloidal advantages over other styles of gearing;

The Ever-Power 3000 and our related products that use cycloidal gearing technology deliver the the majority of robust solution in the many compact footprint. The main power train is made up of an eccentric roller bearing that drives a wheel around a couple of inner pins, keeping the decrease high and the rotational inertia low. The wheel incorporates a curved tooth profile instead of the more traditional involute tooth profile, which gets rid of shear forces at any stage of contact. This style introduces compression forces, instead of those shear forces that would can be found with an involute equipment mesh. That provides a number of efficiency benefits such as high shock load capability (>500% of ranking), minimal friction and wear, lower mechanical service elements, among numerous others. The cycloidal design also has a huge output shaft bearing span, which provides exceptional overhung load capabilities without requiring any extra expensive components.

A cycloidal drive has some similarities to both planetary gearing and strain-wave gears. In the picture shown, the green shaft may be the input and its rotation causes an eccentric motion in the yellowish cycloidal disk. The cycloidal disk is certainly targeted at a stationary outer ring, represented in the animation by the outer ring of grey segments. Its motion is transferred to the purple result shaft via rollers or pins that user interface to the holes in the disk. Like planetary gearing, the result shaft rotates in the contrary direction to the input shaft. Because the person parts are well-suited to 3D printing, this opens the door to easily prototyping custom designs and gearing ratios.
