Differential Gear Sets

Differential Gear Sets consist of 2 cycloidal gear sets mounted back to back. They turn in opposite directions. The reduction ratio is the difference between the ratios of the gear sets. Many successful applications include parking lot gates, winches, cranes and machine tools. Reductions ranging from 59.5/1 to 595/1 are available from this configuration. Ratios can be calculated from the diagram using the formula R= (B/A-B * D/B-C) where:

A= # of pitches in the input compound gear
B = # of pitches in the mating oscillating gear
C= # of pitches in the mating oscillating gear
D = # of pitches in the input compound gear
In this case:
A = 36
B = 34
C = 32
D = 34
Giving a ratio of 289 to 1
