This?live online seminar?is an event?for mechanical motion design engineers at all experience levels.? The seminar has been designed to give solid, practical information - not a sales pitch. Register today to learn how to design and build better machines with true Planetary Gearhead technology.

Planetary Gearheads?offer the following design benefits:?

• High Torque to Size Ratio - Allows compact, lower cost design
• Low Backlash - Eliminates positioning errors due to lost motion
• Inertia Matching - Keeps servo systems stable and in control
• High Rigidity - Optimizes system response
• Self Re-lubrication - Eliminates costly maintenance and downtime
• Load Sharing - More torque capacity and longer life
• High Radial Load Capacity - Mount pulleys and pinions directly on the output shaft.

Register now to learn how to improve your knowledge of?Planetary Gearheads and improve?your next mechanical motion design.
