Robotics

SMImotion Hydro-Drive stands as an innovative leap in the realm of robotics, designed explicitly to redefine the dynamics of robotic systems. This advanced drive technology reimagines the core functionalities of robots, introducing a versatile and high-performance solution tailored to the evolving demands of industries reliant on robotics.

Revolutionary load & power density

Enhanced teeth/roller engagement (>4 vs. ~1.5) in SMImotion gearings boosts load distribution, reducing material strength demands. Larger gear teeth pitch diameters further enhance load shearing. Hydraulic pressure rotation up to 420 bars generates formidable torques, limited only by material strength.

Hydraulics without tubes

SMImotion integration: The complete, highly integrated drive train in a closed housing eliminates the need for additional pumps, hoses, containers and filters, thus reducing complexity and weight. This advance eliminates common drawbacks of hydraulics and improves profitability in robotics.

Universal actuation device

Hydrostatic actuator functions as a versatile device, serving as a hydromotor, pump, gearbox, clutch, or brake. It facilitates limit cycle movements for legged locomotion across all four quadrants, offering control to disengage, freewheel, brake, or lock—a pivotal feature for sustained energy autonomy in mobile systems like robots and humanoids.
