Expanding Workspace Capabilities with igus Apiro Worm Gearboxes

Meeting demanding customer requirements often requires innovative solutions. In this case, neither traditional articulated arm robots nor a standard room gantry with 3 degrees of freedom sufficed for the required workspace. By integrating two igus Apiro worm gearboxes, the gantry system gained two additional degrees of freedom, fully addressing the customer's specifications and enabling precise, customized motion control.

What is the Application?

The system automates complex motion tasks requiring extended degrees of freedom in challenging workspaces. The additional Apiro worm gear axes allow the gantry to perform intricate maneuvers efficiently.

What are the Advantages of the Solution?

• Expanded Workspace: Offers more flexibility with 5 degrees of freedom.

• Tailored Design: Fully customized to meet unique customer needs.

• Optimized Functionality: Performs precise tasks beyond traditional gantry setups.

What are the Advantages of the Robot?

The modified gantry system with igus Apiro gearboxes delivers:

• High Precision: Reliable motion control for detailed movements.

• Scalability: Easily adaptable for complex industrial tasks.

• Robust Construction: Durable design ensures long-term performance.

Achieving Versatility in Gantry System Design

By integrating igus Apiro worm gearboxes, this solution adds flexibility to standard gantry systems, enabling advanced motion capabilities. The result is a robust and adaptable system that fulfills even the most demanding customer requirements, redefining workspace efficiency and operational possibilities.
