This gearbox allows the output to be connected directly to dryspin® lead screw technology. The interaction of gear ratio and thread pitch allows self-locking and different feed rates to be realised. This gearbox is available for lead screws with diameters of 10, 12 and 16mm with different pitches.
At igus®, Apiro® stands for inexpensive worm gears 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.
