FAULHABER Unveils DualGear Drive System for Autonomous Logistics

['FAULHABER this week introduced its DualGear drive system, designed to provide a high-performance and economical solution for space-constrained applications, particularly in conveyor belts and compact wheel drives of autonomous logistics systems.', "The company's new product is tailored to meet the demands of modern conveying and logistics systems, which require dynamic, durable, and integratable drive solutions. According to FAULHABER, the DualGear system's particular advantage is its versatility, allowing two synchronous movements to be realized with one drive. This significantly reduces integration effort, optimizes installation space, and lowers system costs.", 'The DualGear drive system combines two high-performance partners in a compact unit: the BX4 base motor and GPT planetary gearheads.

The BX4 base motor is available in two motor lengths, 42 mm and 68 mm, enabling the drive system to be flexibly adapted to different performance and installation space requirements. Hall sensors with sine/cosine output signals enable precise detection of the rotor position for exact commutation and positioning.', 'When paired with an external motion controller, the DualGear system allows for accurate positioning movement, resulting in a drive system that combines torque and maximum accuracy with a compact design. The GPT planetary gearheads are available with up to three stages, enabling exact dimensioning with respect to speed and torque requirements.

The components have only welded joints to ensure reliable and durable construction without the use of adhesives.', 'Schönaich, Germany-based FAULHABER has decades of experience creating drive systems for precision engineering and electromechanics. With development and production locations in Switzerland, the U.S., Romania, and Hungary, as well as sales partners and subsidiaries in over 30 countries, the company offers one of the most extensive ranges of miniature and micro drive systems available from a single source worldwide.']
