Product Description

A Cycloidal Drive, also called a wobble drive, is an innovative speed reducer that achieves high torque and precise motion with a compact design. Here's an overview of a proof-of-principle model for a cycloidal speed reducer:

Key Features of the Model:

1. Gear Reduction Ratio:

   • The model demonstrates a 20:1 gear reduction, showcasing the cycloidal drive's capability for high-speed reduction in a compact form factor.

2. Tooth Design:

   • The gears have a simple tooth form optimized for easy manufacturing.
   • This design allows the gears to be laser-cut or waterjet-cut to their final shape, minimizing the need for complex machining processes.

3. Materials Used:

   • PVC Sheet and Delrin:
     • These materials are used for the moving parts due to their durability and low friction.
   • Baltic Birch Plywood:
     • Serves as the structural backing, providing rigidity and support.

4. Applications:

   • While this is a proof-of-concept, the design principles can be scaled up for industrial applications requiring efficient speed reduction, high torque, and compact size.

5. Advantages of the Cycloidal Drive:

   • High torque output.
   • Smooth and precise motion.
   • Compact and robust design.
   • Ability to use simple, cost-effective manufacturing techniques.
