Perfect drive concept for driverless transport systems
We have developed a drive unit with a Mecanum wheel for driverless transport systems. These special wheels allow a transport system to move freely in any direction. This fully integrated and decentralized drive concept, in which all necessary components are housed in the wheel unit, offers the user maximum design freedom in the construction of AGV solutions.
Unlimited mobility for AGVs
Especially for mobile automation solutions, Nabtesco offers a fully integrated and decentralized drive unit with Mecanum wheel, which combines the highest precision with maximum robustness, reliability and durability and thus meets all the requirements of modern automated guided vehicles (AGV). The RVW Mecanum wheel drives used allow high torque performance even in the smallest of spaces and have an integrated main bearing that optimally absorbs the radial and axial forces that occur. Thanks to the cycloidal gears, the compact and extremely robust drive concept is also completely maintenance-free. All necessary components are housed in the wheel unit. This offers the user maximum design freedom in the construction of AGV solutions.
Nabtesco makes you mobile:
- Fully integrated and decentralized drive concept
- Omnidirectional mobility thanks to the Mecanum wheel
- Precise, robust and durable cycloidal gears
- Compact design
- Completely maintenance-free
