Wheel drives

Wheel drives

The WD wheel drive consists of a wheel, integrated planetary gearbox and bearing in one short unit. Combining Nanotec’s wheel drives with our motors and controllers results in compact systems that simplify the development and production of self-propelled systems, such as service robots or Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs).

  • Space-saving design
  • Withstands high radial loads
  • Different wheel diameters available
  • Can be combined with a wide range of motors as well as brakes and encoders

The wheel drives can be ordered with and without a mounting bracket. For series production Nanotec also offers press-on tires made from special composite materials.

The WD wheel drives are available in combination with motors in different sizes:

NEMA 23    NEMA 24    60 MM    90 mm
 

For applications that require repeated and dynamic braking, the WD wheel drives are available with a pre-mounted motor brake.

Webinar: The new wheel drives – Advantages and applications

In this webinar, you will learn more about the Nanotec wheel drives and how they can be adjusted to individual vehicle concepts. Using an example configuration, we explain what needs to be observed when designing, what the maximum load is and how the service life of the ball bearings is calculated. Duration: 40 min. Please note that the webinar is held in German.

Our product manager Dr. Alexander Naubert also explains how to find the right motor for your wheel drive and provides information about:

  • Various construction types
  • The configuration with a brake
  • Suitable gear reductions
  • Possible applications

The wheel drives from Nanotec consists of an extremely short unit of wheel, internal planetary gearbox and bearing. Combining the wheel drives with a motor and a motor controller/drive results in a compact drive unit for self-propelled vehicles, such as service robots or AGVs.
