Nabtesco presents innovations at SPS in Nuremberg

The Neco series of precision solid shaft gears were developed specifically with customer requirements in mind and Nabtesco says they are setting standards with respect to performance, flexibility, user convenience, design and efficiency. It did not take long for the innovative concept to become a model for success. But Covid-19 has thus far made it impossible to present the pioneering servo gears at a trade fair. Nabtesco is now making up for this. At SPS 2021 the gear specialist will present the entire Neco family in all five sizes (25, 42, 80, 125 and 160) as well as the two available housing types (bolted connection from the motor side or application side).

Nabtesco will also present other solutions from its diverse portfolio. Visitors can look forward for example to an update to the project “The world’s most precise robot”. The goal of the cooperation between Nabtesco and the controller expert Keba is to allow customers to manufacture robots with point and path accuracy down to hundredths of a millimetre. A new feature is the integration of condition monitoring in the robot controller on the basis of real gear data with reference to serial numbers. The additional function enables an individual snapshot of the robot utilisation, which in turn can be used to assess the remaining life of the gearbox. This opens up exciting new possibilities for robot, machine and plant engineers.
