Today, we will focus on Planetary Drives

Today, we will focus on the strain wave gear, also commonly known as the harmonic drive, named after the company that pioneered its commercialization.

In this lesson from the Archimedes Academy by IMSystems, we explore the working principle, key terminology, and advantages and disadvantages of cycloidal drives, a widely used speed reducer in robotics.

Mechanical drives convert high-speed, low-torque motion into slow, high-torque movement. Learn their key functions, types, and differences in robotics.
