Discover how the inner design of the Archimedes Drive transforms humanoid robots from mere machines into dynamic partners capable of navigating the complex demands of industrial environments with unprecedented accuracy and reliability.
The last fundamental innovation in gearbox design occurred in 1957 with the introduction of the strain wave drive. Since then, gearbox technology has seen only incremental refinements, with no significant advancements—until now. The Archimedes Drive represents the first true paradigm shift in mechanical power transmission in over six decades.
Humanoid robots integrate more than 20 gearboxes, each constrained by inherent mechanical limitations. These gearboxes contribute to one-third of the total hardware cost while introducing critical challenges such as backlash, wear, and efficiency losses. These limitations directly impact the precision, reliability, and operational lifespan of humanoid robots.
The Archimedes Drive eliminates backlash entirely through a , enabling without the compliance issues associated with traditional gearing. Furthermore, it is the only drive system capable of absorbing shock loads and impact forces, preventing the humanoid robot from failure.
