The planetary speed reducers, Series RG, are designed for one and two stages, with hardened and tempered steel housing and broached internal gear. Manufactured to latest ISO engineering design specifications is checked by computer- aided structural analysis for deflection and stress distribution. Significant strains caused by the effects of torque and external loads do not deflect the monoli...

Understanding backlash and how it is measured What is Backlash? Backlash is defined as the play resulting from loose connections between gears or other mechanical elements. All gearboxes contain backlash. Backlash is reduced by using high quality ground gears. Backlash is greatly reduced and, in the case of Onvio’s Dojen, backlash is eliminated by using cantilevered, preloaded needle bearing ca...

Onvio's Dojen™ Cycloidal Reducer is the highest precision speed reducer on the market. True Zero Backlash Onvio's dual track cam and preloaded needle bearing cam followers assure contact between all force transmitting components at all times. This guarantees zero backlash for the life of the reducer. Nine Frame Sizes 9 Frame sizes with output torque ranging from 11 Nm to more than 13,000...
