USE CASES
Picking and Packing
Thanks to the powerful torque-density and strong stiffness of the Archimedes Drive robots can execute demanding heavy picking tasks with precision.
Assembly
With less than 0,2 arcmin of lost motion thanks to the incredibly high stiffness design, the Archimedes Drive offers powerful and precise movements.
Loading and Unloading
Situated in the joints of the humanoid robots, the Archimedes Drive facilitates the execution of tasks involving heavy payloads.
Collaborative Tasks
With its impressively low noise output of max 50,2 dBA (soft rain), robots equipped with the Archimedes Drive can operate near humans with comfort and confidence.
Harsh Environments
With high stiffness, backdrivability, and overtorque protection, robots equipped with the Archimedes Drive can perform in harsh environments and handle unpredicted shocks, vibrations and collisions.
Quadruped Robots
With a maximum lost-motion of just 0.2 arcmin and high torque density, the Archimedes Drive is suitable for placement in both the hip and knee joints of quadruped robots for strength and precision.
- Backdrivable for corrective movements
- Safe and comfortable interaction
- Soft Low Frequency
- Overtorque protection for accident
Superior Human-Robot Interaction
Integrating humanoid robots onto a factory floor poses one of the industry’s primary challenges. However, equipping your robots with Archimedes drives can effectively address many of the hurdles associated with this integration:
- Significantly reducing operation noise levels, thereby enhancing safety, comfort and discreteness.
- Providing overtorque protection, ensuring that robot joints can withstand shocks and maintain operational integrity.
- Offering backdrivability, enabling humans to interact with the robot and perform corrective movements when necessary.
Redefining Humanoid Robot Actuation
The Archimedes Drive revolutionizes humanoid robots by allowing them to reach a new level of precision, safety, and strength:
- Tailor made for your humanoid robot application
- Low operation Noise
- Very high stiffness and zero backlash
- Unique Overtorque Protection
