Original Creators of the Synchronic Drive™

Changing the way the World rotates with the Synchronic Drive™
Zero-Backlash, High-Stiffness, Self-Locking gear reducer for OEM and Servo Motor Applications

THE NEXT REVOLUTION IN GEARBOX TECHNOLOGY

ZERO BACKLASH

Preloaded synchronous rolling elements provide smooth, low friction, torque transmission with zero backlash.

HIGH STIFFNESS

Loads are distributed across multiple rolling elements to increase torsional stiffness and overall load capability

SELF BRAKING

The arrangement of gearbox internals prevents backdriving of the gearbox. Meaning no external power-off brakes are required to hold the load when power is removed.

ENERGY SAVING

Wide range of gear reduction ratios within a single stage increases power transmission efficiency and the self-locking technology reduces consumed power.
