EasternGear’s Slew Drive is an integrated module combining a reduction gear and a slewing bearing, engineered for high-precision rotation control and superior load-bearing capacity. Designed to maximize robust stability and durability, its compact size ensures easy installation. It delivers exceptional performance across various sectors, including solar tracking systems, heavy equipment, and industrial automation.
◆ Key Features
- High-Precision Rotation Control via Globoid Worm Gear
Ensures ultra-precise positioning with minimized backlash of 1 arcmin (0.016º) or less. The self-locking feature provides enhanced safety by maintaining the position even when power is disconnected.
- Smooth Performance under High Load and High Torque
Utilizing multi-face contact technology, it stably transmits powerful torque. It maintains smooth and strong driving force even under conditions where massive vertical and horizontal loads act simultaneously.
- Waterproof, Dustproof, and High-Strength Materials
Designed with waterproof and dustproof specifications to ensure reliability in harsh outdoor environments. High-strength materials and special heat treatments are applied to achieve superior resistance to wear and corrosion, extending the product's lifespan.
- Versatile Installation & Space Optimization
The integrated structure allows for immediate mounting without the need for additional bearing design. It can be installed in various orientations—horizontal, vertical, or angled—maximizing design flexibility for the client's equipment.
