The line of gear motors brings precise servo motion to a wider variety of automation including applications that require high torque at low output speeds.

Yaskawa’s line of gear motors brings precise servo motion to a wider variety of automation including applications that require high torque at low output speeds.

Its gearheads have been designed to pair precisely with every servo motor in the Sigma-7 range, creating gear motor solutions rated from a low of 50 watts to as high as 15 kilowatts. Five different gear ratios are available, ranging from 3/1 to 50/1.

The gear motors promise precision helical gearing with a 40% greater tooth surface; an enhanced system of bearings, including 45% larger planet bearings; and balanced, concentric shaft couplings to minimize vibration during high speed operation and reduce the inertia of the gear motor system.
