As the "joint heart" of robots, gear reducers directly determine their motion accuracy, load capacity, and service life. Tailored to the four mainstream robot types—industrial, humanoid, quadrupedal, and wheeled—we offer customized solutions to unlock the optimal performance of every robot!
Industrial Robots: Heavy-Duty, High-Precision Partners for "Manufacturing Powerhouses"
Core Requirements
Industrial robots are widely used in automotive welding, electronic assembly, and heavy-duty handling, requiring:
High payload capacity (50–5000 kg)
24/7 continuous operation
Ultra-high repeat positioning accuracy (≤0.005 mm)
Resistance to harsh environments (dust, oil, etc.)
Adapted Gear Reducers
RV Gear Reducers: Designed for heavy loads and high rigidity, with rated torque up to 5000 N·m, backlash ≤1 arcmin, and a lifespan excing 10,000 hours. Ideal for the waist and upper arms of 6-axis industrial robots in stamping and forging applications.
Harmonic Gear Reducers: Focused on lightweight precision, with compact size (Ø20–100 mm), low weight, and repeat positioning accuracy ≤0.002 mm. Perfect for delicate joints like forearms and wrists in 3C industry micro-component assembly.
Key Parameters
Repeat positioning accuracy
Rated torque
Backlash
Service life
Dust/waterproof rating (IP65 or higher)
Humanoid Robots: Flexible, Human-Like "Life Partners"
Core Requirements
Humanoid robots must mimic human joint movements (e.g., arm swinging, leg walking) in compact spaces (Ø<50 mm), with moderate loads (1–20 kg), fast dynamic response (gait adjustment ≤0.1 s), and low noise (≤50 dB) for "light interaction" in home and service settings.
Adapted Gear Reducers
Miniature Harmonic Gear Reducers: Ultra-compact design (length ≤80 mm, weight <200 g), backlash ≤0.5 arcmin, enabling delicate motions (e.g., cup-holding, door-opening) in fingers and elbows.
High-Precision Planetary Gear Reducers: Combines low noise (≤45 dB) and high efficiency (≥95%) for knee joints, supporting dynamic load switching during walking to avoid gait stuttering.

Quadrupedal Robots: Stable Support for All-Terrain "Inspection Experts"
Core Requirements
Quadrupedal robots are used in outdoor inspections (mines, forests) and emergency rescue, requiring:
Adaptability to rugged terrain (climbing, obstacle crossing)
Resistance to frequent impact loads (≥2× rated load during jumps)
Tolerance for extreme temperatures (-30°C to 60°C) and humidity
Gait stability (avoiding bumps)
Adapted Gear Reducers
High-Impact RV Gear Reducers: Optimized tooth surface structure for 30% higher shock load capacity, backlash ≤2 arcmin, ideal for hip and knee joints to climb 30° slopes and cross 20 cm obstacles.
Waterproof Planetary Gear Reducers: Dual-seal design (IP67), transmission efficiency ≥92%, for foot joints to prevent mud/water intrusion and ensure fault-free outdoor inspections.
Key Parameters
Shock load capacity
Return error
Protection rating
High/low-temperature adaptability
Gait stability
Wheeled Robots: Powerful "Logistics/Service Pioneers" for Efficient Mobility
Core Requirements
Wheeled robots (AGVs, service robots) prioritize stable torque output (5–50 N·m) for wheel drive, requiring:
Low-sp, high-torque performance (50–300 rpm)
Low noise (≤55 dB for quiet environments like malls and hospitals)
Energy efficiency (≥8h runtime per charge)
Adapted Gear Reducers
Low-Sp, High-Torque Planetary Gear Reducers: Transmission ratio 5–100, rated torque 50 N·m, torque fluctuation ≤5% at low sps, ideal for AGVs to carry 1-ton loads smoothly.
Compact Worm Gear Reducers: Simple structure, cost-effective, noise ≤55 dB, perfect for indoor service robots (e.g., restaurant delivery, hotel guidance) without compromising aesthetics.
Key Parameters
Sp range
Rated torque
Operating noise
Transmission efficiency
Battery life compatibility
