Data sheets for robolink standard arms (RL-D-RBT-xxxxx-BC-(AE)

Martin Raak | 6. February 2018

igus® supplies “electromechanical joint arms“. They consist of: robolink® joints with worm gears (RL-D) and strain wave gears (RL-S), igus stepper motors NEMA11, -17, -23 and -23XL, Ini-switches for the Zero-Point definition (BC version) or Output encoders (BC-AE version), connection parts between these joints (folded metal sheets RL-DC) a set of igus cables (5m long) […]

Output Encoder for RL-D / RL-S

Martin Raak | 29. June 2017

We supply 2 options of encoders for our joints / joint arms. Option 1 (our Standard before HMI 2017): Motorencoder plus Ini switch for 0-point reference on the joint output (PRT bearing) Option 2): Output encoder on the PRT bearing of the joint. This is our own development, we use a magnetic ring plus Encoderchip […]

strain wave gear (RL-S) vs. cycloid gear (RL-C)

Martin Raak | 28. June 2017

The strain wave gear is available as a product in the size RL-S-17 and RL-S-20. RL-S-30 is a prototype and still in development. The cyclo gear can be an alternative in future and is not available as a product yet. The sizes 17 and 20 are currently in development. Both types of gears contain a coaxial […]

more data for download (Catalogue, STEP, drawings)

Martin Raak | 19. May 2017

I want to supply more data for you to be downloaded, especially about our RL-DC “standard arms”. Our standard arms include all joints, motors, connections (=c-shaped metal sheets), cables and chains. Attached our NEW catalogue (now also available in ENG), STEP data for our 8 standard configurations and also the related drawings with part lists. […]

RL-S strain wave gears now available

Martin Raak | 4. May 2017

At the HMI trade show we released our strain wave gear (RL-S) as a product in addition to our worm gears (RL-D). The smallest version of the strain wave gear (RL-S-17-N11-00-28-020K0) is used for the fifth axis in the standard joint arms RL-D-RBT-5532S-XX and RL-D-RBT-3322S-XX. The RL-S-17 gear comes in two variations, both have a […]
