Yaskawa America’s line of gear motors are based on its Sigma-7 servo motors. The line brings is designed for automation applications that require high torque at low output speeds. A set of gearheads have been designed to pair precisely with every servo motor in the full Sigma-7 range, creating complete gear motor solutions rated from a low of 50 W to as high as 15 kW. Five different gear ratios are available, ranging from 3/1 to 50/1. Other features include precision helical gearing with a 40% greater tooth surface area for notably smoother, quieter and more accurate operation. They also have balanced, concentric shaft couplings designed to minimize vibration during high speed operation and reduce the inertia of the gear motor system.
