Genesis Robotics & Motion Technologies offers LiveDrive LDD 1800 Series Direct Drive Actuators with an extensive range of configurations and performance options.
LiveDrive is a high-torque, compact, direct-drive solution designed for robots and machines in packaging and electronics industries, among others. LiveDrive reduces maintenance requirements while increasing uptime and reliability. With no need for gears, belts or lubrication, LiveDrive actuators simplify the drivetrain, delivering increased performance and lower total cost of ownership, according to the company.
"A LiveDrive LDD 1800 Series actuator is less than half the length of a typical servo-gearhead drivetrain, enabling greater utilization of machine work cells and factory floor space," said a company spokesperson.
LiveDrive's washdown-ready IP67 enclosure-with its smooth surfaces and minimal collection points-allows for easy cleanup. Importantly, LiveDrive actuators do not require a gearbox, removing the risk of oil leakage or contamination. No gearbox means reduced downtime, inspection and maintenance requirements.
LiveDrive's direct-drive technology also eliminates backlash and improves system stiffness. "Coupled with its higher torque-to-weight ratio, LiveDrive creates opportunities for robot and machine designers to improve performance in highly dynamic applications," said the spokesperson. "LiveDrive, with its low inertia and fast stopping times, supports control system safety to meet Collaborative Robot Technical Specification ISO/TS 15066 and bring human-machine collaboration to new applications."
Genesis LiveDrive LDD 1800 Series Direct Drive Actuators are available with an extensive range of configurations and performance options. Standard models include four sizes, various voltage levels and support integration with third-party servo drives.
