Apex Dynamics as a world class manufacturer of low-backlash gearboxes, racks and pinions received more and more questions about which gearbox is ideal for an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) application?
We have now developed a series of gearboxes specifically for this type of mobile robot application, theĀ GL series is a high-end gearbox range which complements the existing PD/PDR and the PL/PLR ranges and offers a number of technical advantages.
The GL series is designed with high precision helical gears with a maximum backlash of 3 arc minutes for a single stage ratio. With this series, the flange and the housing are made from one rotating part, making it ideal for direct mounting and supporting of the drive wheel without getting high bending moments.
