Global Strain Wave Gearing Devices Industry Growth and Trends Forecast to 2031

Summary

Strain wave gearing also known as harmonic gearing is a special type of mechanical gear system that can improve certain characteristics compared to traditional gearing systems such as helical gears or planetary gears. Harmonic Drive is a compact, high performance, precision reduction gear. It is one of the key components used in robotic products such as collaborative work robots. The gear consists of only 3 basic parts (Wave Generator, Flex spline, and Circular Spline). It provides excellent features not found in other speed reducers.
