Robot Joint Actuators

SigGear robot joint actuators include integrated planetary joint actuators, gearbox-centered joint-drive configurations and cycloidal joint modules for robotics applications. Depending on the selected platform, a project may use a complete actuator or integrate a SigGear gearbox with the customer's own motor, encoder and controller architecture.

Additional planetary actuator models will be added after their technical data and product images are verified.

Cycloidal Joint Actuators

Cycloidal joint actuator pages are listed in the Cycloidal Joint Modules section. CPM-78-39 is treated separately because it uses Hall sensors rather than the integrated absolute-encoder driver platform.

Robot Joint Actuator and Gearbox Configurations

For robot joint projects, the required level of integration can vary. Depending on the selected model and project requirements, SigGear can review complete actuator configurations as well as gearbox-centered solutions for customer-side motor, encoder or controller integration.

Custom robot actuator requests may include mechanical interface, output shaft, housing, cable arrangement, reduction ratio and integration review. For projects that already use a customer motor or controller, SigGear can also evaluate a planetary reducer or actuator gearbox as the transmission core of the robot joint. Feasibility and final specifications require engineering confirmation against the selected model, application loads, installation envelope and project quantity.

The published joint actuators are reference platforms rather than the only available project path. If a robot team has different torque, speed, size, motor, encoder, driver or mounting requirements, start with a custom engineering review.

Available Configurations

Most joint actuator models can be supplied:

  • With integrated driver and encoder
  • Without integrated driver, with sensor and cable configuration confirmed by order

Driver, encoder, communication and control descriptions apply only to the selected configuration confirmed in the quotation.
