HPN Right Angle

HPN Right Angle

HPN Harmonic Planetary® value series is now available in a right angle configuration. The HPN Right Angle gearbox provides a low cost solution without the need to compromise on quality or performance. The HPN Series features helical gears for High –Torque, quiet performance and long life. Backlash of <6 arc minutes (for single stage) is maintained for the life of the gear. Large radial ball bearings support the output shaft for high load capacity. This new value series of planetary gears carry the reputation for quality and reliability for which Harmonic Drive® products are known throughout the world.

Key Features:

• Spiral bevel right angle gear set with planetary output
• Helical Gearing
• Available in 5 Frame Sizes
• Peak torque: 9Nm to 752Nm
• Ratios, 3:1 to 50:1
• High Efficiency
• Backlash <6 arc-min (single stage) ,<9 arc-min (two stage)


When starting a new motion control project involving a gearhead, In-Position Technologies engineers start by reviewing the key requirements to determine the optimum gearhead type, gear ratio, and form factor for the job. They perform all necessary engineering calculations to make sure the system performs as required, within customer specification, and without unnecessary cost. They will also recommend the appropriate accessories that will best fit the application.  

To ensure a gearhead fits the customer’s requirements, In-Position Technologies engineers review:

• Gear Ratio
• Gear Geometry
• Backlash
• Efficiency
• Weight
• Maximum Input RPM
• Nominal Output Torque
• Maximum Acceleration Output Torque
• Emergency Stop Torque
• Axial Load
• Radial Load
• Gearhead inertia at input
• IP Rating

When ordering the HPN Right Angle Gear Unit as a part of a full system, IP Tech engineers review the solution to ensure:

• All parts and accessories necessary for a complete working solution are included
• All components have been checked and verified to work together as a system
• The selected components will perform as required by the project specifications
