Harmonic Drive Actuators with Integrated Drive Technology

In this video, Harmonic Drive explores how integrated drive technology (IDT) from Harmonic Drive is revolutionizing the precision motion control industry. Watch as we demonstrate key features of our advanced actuators and how your industrial automation projects can benefit from them.

Packed with features, IDT actuators are your last stop for rotary motion control.

Key highlights:

Zero backlash strain wave gear: Experience high precision motion with Zero Backlash from the original manufacturers of the strain wave gear

Advanced servo drive built in: A complete servo drive under the cover offers real time feedback, control loop tuning, advanced trajectory modes including position, velocity, and torque control, and much more functionality

Simple cabling: IDT actuators only need one cable which dramatically simplifies wire management, especially in manufacturing automation and robotics projects where cable management can be particularly challenging Packed with sensors:

Dual absolute encoders eliminate the need for battery backups within a single output revolution, on board temperature sensor and motor phase current monitoring helps ensure your motor never operates above its limits

Simple setup: Get going quickly with our custom software where you can test drive your actuators, modify parameters, tune control loops, update firmware, and much more

Industry 4.0 ready: Speed up your smart factory initiatives by connecting all of your sensors, equipment, and integrated actuators to a single communication bus
