WITTENSTEIN solutions for parallel axis robots

For builders of parallel axis robots, WITTENSTEIN alpha is a qualified partner that knows how to offer just the right transmission system, personalized according to the performance the application requires.

The concern’s decade of engineering knowhow, competencies in scaling and software and a vast product portfolio make it a favorite supplier of transmission solutions that go well beyond the technical data reported in the catalog. The parallel axis robots (delta) are almost always “single pieces”, with major implications for the drive system, because no two robots are the same.
This makes necessary an analysis of the tasks to be performed and the surrounding conditions in order to map the robot’s motion and interaction with other components. Using a multi-body simulation, torques, load data and possible dynamic effects like vibrations picked up by the system are calculated. For such complex designs, WITTENSTEIN alpha’s cymex® processing software is a valuable ally capable of executing the best solution for the customer according to the data supplied, be it a single TP+ precision reduction gear with flange or a TPM+ rotary servo-actuator, parallel robot builders can count on the security of maximized scaling, as much from an economic as from a technical standpoint, even for high dynamics multiaxis motion profiles.

WITTENSTEIN AG means innovation, precision and excellence in mechatronics. The German Group has approximately 1900 employees in 60 locations across 40 different countries, and is made up of 8 divisions that bring together “under one roof” the main mechatronic drive technologies: reduced play epicycloidal reducers, orthogonal servo-reducers, rotary and linear servo-actuators, servo systems, miniaturized servo-units, toothing technology, electronic components and software and medical technology.
