ACTILINK-JD DUO

TWO-STAGE HIGH-TORQUE ACTUATORS FOR HUMANOID AND QUADRUPED ROBOTS

High-torque motor, low-backlash two-stage planetary gearbox, and integrated SOMANET™ Circulo 9 drive in a compact housing with a hollow shaft. For joints that require high output torque and rigidity.

AT A GLANCE

The ACTILINK-JD DUO series combines a high-torque motor with a low-backlash two-stage planetary gearbox and an integrated SOMANET™ Circulo 9 drive. The result is high torque density in a compact housing with a hollow shaft, designed for humanoid and quadruped robots where output torque and stiffness are critical.

Two-stage planetary gearbox: high torque density with backlash of less than 10 arcmin.

Hollow shaft, Ø 12.6 mm: for cable routing, with an integrated cross-roller bearing on the output end.

SOMANET™ Software: easy to use, EtherCAT, powerful motion control.

Functional Safety: STO and SBC included as standard; Safe Motion via FSoE available as an option.
