FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Ever-Power develops and manufactures cycloidal equipment boxes to round off the product portfolio. In drive technology, especially in neuro-scientific tool machinery, automation and robotics, these compact designed, high tranny precision equipment boxes are used specifically to meet the best demands for stiffness, efficiency and efficiency. In addition to the constantly extended standard range, these cycloidal precision gear boxes could be adapted to client requirements upon request.

Capable of handling larger “shock” loads (>500%) of rating compared to worm, helical, etc.
High reduction ratios and torque density in a concise dimensional footprint
Exceptional “built-in” overhung load carrying capability
High efficiency (>95%) per reduction stage
Minimal reflected inertia to electric motor for longer service life
Just ridiculously rugged as all get-out
The entire Ever-Power design proves to be extremely durable, and it requires minimal maintenance following installation. The Ever-Power is the most reliable reducer in the commercial marketplace, in fact it is a perfect match for applications in heavy industry such as oil & gas, primary and secondary steel processing, commercial food production, metal trimming and forming machinery, wastewater treatment, extrusion tools, among others.

Cycloidal advantages over various other styles of gearing;

The Ever-Power 3000 and our related products that utilize cycloidal gearing technology deliver the most robust solution in the most compact footprint. The main power train is comprised of an eccentric roller bearing that drives a wheel around a couple of inner pins, keeping the decrease high and the rotational inertia low. The wheel includes a curved tooth profile instead of the more traditional involute tooth profile, which gets rid of shear forces at any point of contact. This design introduces compression forces, instead of those shear forces that would can be found with an involute gear mesh. That provides several overall performance benefits such as high shock load capacity (>500% of rating), minimal friction and wear, lower mechanical service factors, among many others. The cycloidal style also has a large output shaft bearing span, which gives exceptional overhung load features without requiring any additional expensive components.

A cycloidal drive has some similarities to both planetary gearing and strain-wave gears. In the picture shown, the green shaft may be the input and its rotation causes an eccentric motion in the yellowish cycloidal disk. The cycloidal disk can be geared to a stationary outer band, represented in the computer animation by the outer ring of grey segments. Its motion is used in the purple result shaft via rollers or pins that user interface to the holes in the disk. Like planetary gearing, the result shaft rotates in the opposite direction to the input shaft. Because the person parts are well-suited to 3D printing, this opens the entranceway to easily prototyping custom styles and gearing ratios.
