EXTREME DUTY CYCLES WITH HIGH EFFORTS ON THE OUTPUT FLANGE
Ultimate is a high stiffness, low-backlash planetary gearbox. It provides superior acceleration capacity to high-dynamics applications including new-generation laser-cutting machines, delta robots or punching machines, where high precision is needed.
Ultimate is available in 2 versions : the standard version and the high torque version.

Ultimate is a heavy-duty, low-backlash planetary gearbox.
The planet carrier is a massive, rigid cage providing stiffness and acceleration capacity.
It is monobloc with the rotating output flange, for superior stiffness. Using a rotating flange instead of a male shaft improves significantly the radial and axial load acceptance.
The cage is centered into the inner planetary ring by means of 2 preloaded angular-contact ball bearings (for small sizes) or tapered-roller bearings (sizes above 140), for maximum load capacity. This construction reinforces the acceleration capacity and the gearbox acceptance of fast reversals.
We recommend this line for applications using application factor Ka<2.25 (refer to the information section for more details about application factors).
Note that we have developed a version of Ultimate especially for delta robots : "Ultimate NB" (consult us for more information)
