Apiro® linear gearbox for converting rotational motion into axial motion – the double version for pusher tasks on both sides.
Product information
More advantages
The specified stroke is the stroke for each side.
Apiro® linear gears are used primarily for pusher tasks or in format adjustment.
A special advantage is the simple synchronisation of Apiro® linear gears. The version with built-in coupling allows shafts to be flexibly connected as a drive for several linear gears. Power is usually transmitted via an Apiro® worm gear with a transmission ratio of 32:1 so that the system is self-locking.
The Apiro® linear gearbox with integrated planetary gear allows direct connection to a NEMA17 motor. The planetary gear increases motor power. This creates a very compact but powerful drive unit.
At igus®, Apiro® stands for inexpensive gear solutions and flexible, customer-specific solutions. The modular gearbox system offers a wide range of products based on the combination of various designs on input and output of the gearbox, different transmission ratios and a wide range of accessories. In addition to worm gears, the modular gearbox system also includes bevel gears and linear gears.
A modular structure and simple connection of individual components provide cost-effective solutions for an infinite number of applications. This is where the name comes from: "Apiro" is the Greek word for "infinite".
Apiro® can also be used to implement special solutions quickly and with little cost.
General Properties:
