More advantages
Apiro® rack and pinion gearboxes are used primarily for pusher tasks or in format adjustment.
A special advantage is the simple synchronisation of Apiro® rack and pinion gearboxes. The standard version allows several rack and pinion gearboxes to be synchronised with the Apiro® multifunctional profile. Drive is usually with an Apiro® worm gear with a 32:1 transmission ratio so that the system is self-locking.
At igus®, Apiro® stands for inexpensive gear solutions and flexible, customer-specific solutions. The modular gearbox system offers a wide range of products based on the combination of various designs on input and output of the gearbox, different transmission ratios and a wide range of accessories. In addition to worm gears, the modular gearbox system also includes bevel gears and linear gears.
A modular structure and simple connection of individual components provide cost-effective solutions for an infinite number of applications. This is where the name comes from: "Apiro" is the Greek word for "infinite".
Apiro® can also be used to implement special solutions quickly and with little cost.
