Modular connection: drive technology/lead screw technology and drygear® Apiro gearbox

Apiro connection to linear units

Connection to and synchronisation with drive and lead screw technology

Our "Apiro" gearbox system for a wide variety of kinematic elements and superstructures was named for the Greek word for "infinite". Individual applications can be implemented with the drygear® Apiro gearbox system in an extremely modular and cost-effective manner.
Typical application areas are lane adjustments, pusher tasks, gearboxes with various gear ratios, slewing rings and rotary axes. The new connection to drylin drive technology and dryspin lead screw technology makes you even more flexible in implementing individual automation systems.

Connection to drylin® drive technology

Apiro connection to a linear unit

The direct connection to drylin® undefined and undefineddrive technology is mounted on the output pins of drylin® lead screw units. This allows several Apiro gearboxes to be connected in series and drylin® drive technology synchronised.
Available options are:

SHT-12/SLW-10xx
SLW-1660
SHT-20
SHT-BB-20/SLW-BB-2080
SHT-30
SHT-BB-30/SLW-BB-25120

Possible area of application: undefined

Connection to dryspin® lead screws

Apiro connection to the lead screw

The simple, direct connection of Apiro gearboxes to the output of undefined allows lead screw movement depending on the thread pitch. Lead screws of 10, 12, and 16mm diameter can be connected to various pitches.
Available options are:

DS10x25
DS12
TR16x2
