Cycloidal technology from Sumitomo Drive Technologies

Sumitomo's cyclo gearboxes work by distributing the load to their reduction components. This makes them more compact, durable and precise than conventional gear drives.

Cyclo gears offer high reduction ratios in a single stage, often ranging from 30:1 to over 100:1 and even higher in multi-stage configurations.

Sumitomo Cyclo transmissions are superior to conventional transmissions. Due to their rolling motion, cycloidal gearboxes have a significant advantage over gear gearboxes. They are now considered a proven solution that should be preferred over other types of gearboxes in a number of scenarios – and for good reason.

As the inventor of cycloidal gearboxes, we offer a wide range of proven products - from traditional geared motors such as the Cyclo Drive 6000 to robust and versatile products such as the Cyclo Drive 6000 gearbox and the mechanically backlash-free precision gearboxes of the Fine Cyclo® series.
