Wittenstein product story

Oct 16, 2009
Wittenstein has enhanced the alpha V-Drive servo worm gear to include optimised hollow-flank teeth for accuracy and low backlash, 50 per cent more torque and 97 per cent efficiencies.
The V-Drive gearbox comes in two versions: V-Drive+ and V-Drive economy.
T2B is now T2max and means the maximum torque that can be transmitted by the gear box.
T2N is T2servo and means the maximum torque that can be transmitted by the gear box with a minimal increase in backlash over the whole lifetime of the gearbox.
V-Drive+ replaces the classic version of the V-Drive and has continuously high positioning accuracy and low backlash of less than 3arc/min.
The V-Drive+ is available in these output options: VDH (hollow shaft), VDS (smooth/keyed/involute shaft) and VDT (flange).
Features of the V-Drive+ include: sizes 050, 063, 080, 100; ratio 4, 7, 10, 16, 28, 40; torsional backlash less than 3arc/min and efficiencies of up to 97 per cent.
The following output options are available for the V-Drive economy: VDH (hollow shaft), VDS (shaft, smooth/keyed).
Features of the V-Drive economy include: sizes 050, 063; ratio 7, 10, 16, 28, 40; torsional backlash less than 8arc/min.
