Eastern Gear Showcases Its Advanced Globoid Worm Gear Technology at CES 2025
"Achieving a More Compact Reducer Structure with High Output Efficiency"
Eastern Gear announced that it participated in CES 2025, held in Las Vegas, USA, from January 7 to 10 (local time).
Gaining recognition for its small-sized globoid worm gear technology and actuator development for AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots), Eastern Gear showcased its core technology, the globoid worm gear, along with various applications of its reducers. Notably, its high-precision simultaneous surface contact technology and efficient power transmission system allowed for a 30% reduction in size compared to conventional reducers while maintaining high output efficiency, drawing significant attention from industry professionals.
Regarding this, Eastern Gear stated, "We are the only company in Korea capable of developing and manufacturing globoid worm gears ranging from small to large sizes." The company also emphasized that "At this exhibition, we not only presented our ultra-small robot gear sets but also unveiled an ongoing AMR prototype, further solidifying our position as a leader in next-generation robot and AMR solutions." This technology is recognized for its potential to dramatically enhance the efficiency and durability of autonomous mobile robots.
Throughout the exhibition, Eastern Gear engaged in active discussions with major companies from the AMR, robotics, defense, automotive, and heavy machinery industries. Industry experts particularly highlighted how the application of globoid worm gears enhances robot and AMR performance while reducing manufacturing costs and improving space efficiency. A representative from a global robotics company commented, "Eastern Gear’s globoid worm gear offers superior precision and durability compared to conventional products and will play a crucial role in the smart factory and next-generation robotics markets."

Eastern Gear's CEO, Yoo-hyun Kwak, remarked, "CES 2025 was a crucial opportunity for our global expansion. It confirmed that our technology provides tailored solutions that meet the needs of various industries." He further stated, "We aim to strengthen our presence in the global market by developing cutting-edge technologies such as AMR wheel actuators and lift modules incorporating globoid worm reducers."
Since its founding in 2020, Eastern Gear has steadily expanded its presence in various domestic and international industries through continuous technological innovation. Recognized for its expertise, the company has been selected for programs such as Super Gap Startup 1000+ (robotics sector), Samsung Electronics' C-Lab Outside, and North Gyeongsang Province's Pre-Unicorn Program. Eastern Gear has successfully developed precision worm reducers for robotics, high-power reducers, and ultra-small gear sets, further establishing itself as a specialized gear technology leader.
Through its participation in CES 2025, Eastern Gear has introduced its ultra-small globoid worm gear technology to the global market, proving its wide applicability across industries such as robotics, AMR, defense, heavy equipment, and energy.
Meanwhile, AVING News, which has covered CES on-site for 20 consecutive years, launched various programs to support the global expansion of Korean SMEs and startups.
Prior to CES 2025, AVING News hosted a Global Media Meetup for Korean SMEs, aiming to bridge the gap between the domestic industry and international media. The event provided companies with opportunities to showcase their innovative technologies, products, and services to the global market. Participating tech media outlets included GEEKSPIN (USA), Ubergizmo (USA), Interesting Engineering (USA), and Le Café du Geek (France).
During CES 2025, AVING News also operated AVING Space Studio, connecting global enterprises and innovative Korean startups.
Additionally, following CES 2025, AVING News will co-host a Review Conference with participating companies to increase their exposure in Korea and enhance their corporate image.
