Harmonic Drive Releases New CSF-ULW Ultra-Light Weight Gearhead

September 16, 2020

Introducing the new CSF-ULW ultra-light weight gearhead series from Harmonic Drive LLC.  This series features a newly engineered lightweight structure with an ultra-compact shape.

The CSF-ULW is a housed zero backlash Harmonic Drive component gearset combined with a precision cross roller output bearing & flange.  The CSF-ULW is available in two sizes, with three reduction ratio’s per size.  The ULW series maintains the same performance standards as the popular CSF-2UH series.

Ideal for use on end of arm axes for small industrial and collaborative robots, the CSF-ULW is also well suited for general industrial machinery where weight is a critical factor.

Features include:

  •    –   Zero Backlash
  •    –   Accuracy <1 arc-min
  •    –   High torsional stiffness
  •    –   High efficiency
  •    –   Smooth operation
  •    –   Robust cross roller output bearing
