FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Ever-Power develops and manufactures cycloidal gear boxes to circular off the product portfolio. In drive technology, especially in neuro-scientific device machinery, automation and robotics, these small designed, high transmitting precision gear boxes are used especially to meet the best demands for stiffness, efficiency and efficiency. As well as the constantly extended standard range, these cycloidal precision gear boxes could be adapted to consumer 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 compact dimensional footprint
Exceptional “built-in” overhung load carrying capability
High efficiency (>95%) per reduction stage
Minimal reflected inertia to motor for longer service life
Just ridiculously rugged as all get-out
The overall Ever-Power design proves to be extremely durable, and it requires minimal maintenance following cycloidal gearbox installation. The Ever-Power is the most dependable reducer in the commercial marketplace, and it is a perfect match for applications in large industry such as for example oil & gas, primary and secondary steel processing, industrial food production, metal cutting and forming machinery, wastewater treatment, extrusion tools, among others.

Cycloidal advantages over various other styles of gearing;

The Ever-Power 3000 and our related products that make use of cycloidal gearing technology deliver the the majority of robust solution in the the majority of compact footprint. The primary power train is made up of an eccentric roller bearing that drives a wheel around a set of inner pins, keeping the reduction high and the rotational inertia low. The wheel incorporates a curved tooth profile instead of the more traditional involute tooth profile, which eliminates shear forces at any stage of contact. This style introduces compression forces, instead of those shear forces that would exist with an involute equipment mesh. That provides numerous performance benefits such as high shock load capability (>500% of rating), minimal friction and put on, lower mechanical service elements, among many others. The cycloidal design also has a sizable output shaft bearing period, which gives exceptional overhung load features 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 movement in the yellow cycloidal disk. The cycloidal disk can be targeted at a stationary outer ring, represented in the animation by the outer ring of grey segments. Its movement is used in 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 opposite direction to the insight shaft. Because the person parts are well-appropriate to 3D printing, this opens the door to easily prototyping custom styles and gearing ratios.
