Chapter 2 Installing of Motor Chapter 2 Installing of Motor A precision cross roller bearing is built in the unit type and the gear head type to directly support the external load (output flange) (precision 4-point contact ball bearing for the CSF-mini series). Check the maximum load moment load, life of the bearing and static safety coefficient to fully bring out the performance of the unit type.
Chapter 2 Installing of Motor How to obtain the maximum load moment load How to obtain the maximum load moment load is shown below. Check Mmax <=Mc. ● Formula (1) Figure 1External load influence diagram Mmax=Frmax(Lr+R)+Famax・La Radial load Fr Symbol of Formula (1) Maximum radial See Figure 1.

Chapter 2 Installing of Motor How to obtain the life under oscillating movement Obtain the life of the bearing under oscillating movement by Formula (8). ● Formula (8) Figure 2 Oscillating movement × ( × × θ • Symbols of Formula (8) Rated life under oscillating hour movement...
Chapter 3 Efficiency characteristics Chapter 3 Efficiency characteristics The efficiency varies depending on the following conditions. ●Reduction ratio ●Input rotational speed ●Load torque ●Temperature ●Lubrication condition (type and quantity of lubricant) ●Measuring condition The rated torque shown in the ratings Load torque (see the corresponding pages on each series) Grease lubrication...
The torque value is the value after a trial run of at two hours at an input of 2000 r/min. ● Correction amount by reduction ratio No-load running torques of Harmonic Drive vary in accordance with the reduction ratio. The values in Graph 1 below are the values for the gear head type (1U-CC, reduction ratio 1/100). Other reduction ratios can be calculated by adding correction amounts shown in Table 1.
Chapter 5 Starting torque and Overdrive starting torque Chapter 5 Starting torque and Overdrive starting torque ●Starting torque Starting torque means the instantaneous “starting torque” that the output side (low-speed side) starts rotation when a torque is applied on the input side (high-speed side) Double axial unit type(1U) Unit: cNm...
Chapter 6 Starting torque and Overdrive starting torque Chapter 6 Ratcheting torque and Buckling torque ●Ratcheting torque When excess impact torque is applied during operation, the engagement of the teeth between the circular saline and the flexspline may be put momentarily out of alignment instead of damaging the flexspline.This phenomenon is called ratcheting, and the torque is called ratcheting torque (see values on the corresponding page of each series).0peraling the drive without fixing ratcheting will result in earlier abrasion of the teeth and shorter lifespan of the wave generator bearing due to the effect of the...
Harmonic Drive. Observe Chapter 9 Design and Precautions on assembly. Two angle transmission error elements of Harmonic Drive correspond to a cycle of the input shaft from the mechanical viewpoint of Harmonic Drive. Therefore, the frequency is double the input frequency as it is the main element of the error.
B’ in the “Torque – torsional angle diagram” is represented as the spring constant for the rigidity of Harmonic Drive (unit: Nm/rad). As shown in Figure 020-2, this “Torque – torsional angle diagram” is divided into 3 partitions, and the spring constants in the area are A’...

Chapter 9 Rigidity Hysteresis loss As shown in Figure 020-1, when the torque is applied up to the rated value and is brought back to [zero], the torsional angle does not become absolutely [zero] and a small amount remains. This is called hysteresis loss.
10-1 Embedding accuracy of gear head type (1U-CC) Maintain the recommended case accuracy shown below in design for embedding to ensure that excellent performance of Harmonic Drive is fully demonstrated. Recommended accuracy for case embedding Case mating face Recommended tolerance for socket and spigot joint h6...
Chapter 10 Design and Precautions on assembly 10-2 Tolerable load of input shaft of double-shaft unit type (1U) The input part of the double-shaft unit type is supported by two single row deep groove bearings. Check the load applied to the input part to ensure that the performance of the double-shaft unit type is fully demonstrated.
Chapter 10 Design and Precautions on assembly 10-3 Mounting in system When mounting the CSF-3 series in a system, check flatness of the mounting surface and burrs in the tap part. Then clamp the mounting flange (Part A in the diagram) by bolting.
Squareness of the mounting face 10-5 Lubricant The standard lubricating method for the CSF-3 series is greasing of Harmonic Grease SK-2 developed specially for compact precision equipment. The CSF-3 series products are greased during preshipment inspection. No greasing or grease coating is needed when mounting them in systems.
