Sumitomo Drive Technologies is expanding its range of precision gear products and upgrading its ECY series with higher torque and a plug & play drive for motor connection. The ECY series comprises high-precision shaft gears, used for example for surface machining in dental technology or in collaborative robots (cobots). Thanks to their internal cylindrical roller bearings, the gear units provide both high rigidity and higher performance in a smaller design envelope.
With this new generation, Sumitomo Drive Technologies has once again significantly increased the torque density of the gears, enhancing the internal structure while maintaining the same gear principle and external dimensions. The new ECY 203 and ECY 205 units deliver a more than 30 percent improvement in performance levels, in terms of nominal (rated) torque, acceleration torque, and emergency stop torque, compared with previous models. The maximum drive speed is up to 8,500 revolutions per minute, depending on the size.
Plug & play attachment to any motor
The ECY gears have also been upgraded in terms of flexibility. Thanks to a modular connection system, they can now be fitted to any motor directly at the factory. The modular gear input system enables short delivery times. The main body of the unit comes ex stock, with the flange assembly being based on the customer's requested input. Overall, the units' modularity helps boost the efficiency, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness of machinery and equipment.
"Our performance-enhanced generation of precision gears is based on a plug & play approach. The user benefits from a highly compact performance package that is ready for use. ECY shaft gears can be used in a wide range of demanding applications where exact positioning and high torsional stiffness are required. One standout feature is their ability to prevent ratcheting effects (i.e., unwanted teeth slippage). This is achieved by a significantly higher tooth contact area than cup-type gears," says Michael Berger, product manager motion control drives at Sumitomo Drive Technologies.
Bearings ensure high performance
The torsional stiffness of ECY gear units is around double that of an ordinary shaft gear of the same size. The drive shaft transmits the elliptical shape to two cylindrical roller bearings. Cylindrical roller bearings can transmit the radial force better than the ball bearings that are normally used. A cycloid spline is deformed by the bearing movement and transmits the torques at two symmetrically opposed tooth engagement areas through two further gears with internal toothing.
This means that around 30 percent of all teeth are permanently engaged. The difference of two teeth in these gears produces the transmission and a relative motion. The main bearing consists of a cross roller bearing capable of absorbing the highest radial and axial loads.
Precision and versatility in high-performance applications
The ECY gear unit is ideal for high-precision applications and movements with maximum repeat accuracy. It offers further advantages for applications with a very small installation space as well as weight requirements or the need for a hollow shaft.
Its high rigidity ensures clean surfaces when drilling and milling, for example in medical technology. Other areas of application include semiconductor manufacturing, to enable precise movement and positioning of wafers and other components. In measuring technology, the units ensure precise alignment of optical components and high image quality. They also deliver optimal results when used in diamond grinders.
In addition, ECY precision gears demonstrate their full potential in cobot applications such as Sumitomo Drive Technologies' Tuaka precision hollow-shaft actuator (gear, motor, encoder, and safety driver), a completely integrated drive that won the prestigious Hermes Award last year.
ECY units are fully sealed and have a hollow shaft with an inside diameter of up to 25.5 millimeters for passing cables or media. The new generation of gears is available in two versions with acceleration torques of up to 107 newton-meters with compact outer diameters of 84 millimeters.

Composite bearing is a kind of roller bearing which can bear both radial load and axial load. The structure of the combined bearing is axial and radial bearing running at 900 °, the main load is borne by the radial bearing, and the axial bearing bears the lateral thrust.
Combination bearing is used together with profile guide rail or channel steel. There are two main types of profiles, I and C profiles. The combined bearing slides into the profile guide rail to generate the required linear movement. The combined bearing is welded with the flange plate for installation according to the application requirements. The assembly is mainly used for precise heavy vertical and horizontal movement.
