These values are valid for moving gears. They are not based on the equation for lifetime of the output bearing but on the maximum allowable deflection of the Harmonic Drive® Component set. The values indicated in the table must not be exceeded even if the lifetime equation of the bearing permits higher values.
Resolution In conjunction with the Harmonic Drive AG High Precision Gears, the output side position can be recorded via the motor feed- back system without any additional angle encoders having to be used. The resolution of the motor feedback system can also be multiplied by gear ratio.

[Nm] In the event of an emergency stop or collision, the Harmonic Drive® Gear may be subjected to a brief momentary peak torque. The magnitude and frequency of this peak torque should be kept to a minimum and under no circumstances should the momentary peak torque occur during the normal operating cycle.

The ratio is the reduction of input speed to the output speed. Note for Harmonic Drive® Gears: In the standard drive arrangement, the Wave Generator is the drive element while the Flex- spline is the driven element and the Circular Spline is fixed to the housing. Since the direction of rotation of the input (Wave Generator) is opposite to the output (Flexspline), a negative ratio must be considered.
