Title: Parts Enquiry around 7th Axis Design
Post by: vitene4776 on November 09, 2023, 08:06:24 PM
Hi folks,

I would like to add a rotary 7th axis to my kuka set up.

I have a ksd1-32 driver and can buy a matching servo but looking for a supplier for a gear drive to build me own 7th. Does anyone have a link to a design or a supplier for a kuka MGU parts?

I dont expect to be machining heavy items and I suspect rpm not higher that 20rpm

Thanks

Hello,
Custom mechanical engineering jobs are usually quite local, where are you based?
From my own experience: Try to buy a servo motor with a simple flange, that will make the search for the gear drive much easier.
Best,
