Harmonic Drive System
(OP)
Can anyone please explaine to me how to calculate the required input rotation angle of the servo motor to which attached to a harmonic drive, if the harmonic drive output angle at certain angle is required. Thanks





RE: Harmonic Drive System
The harmonic drive you have selected has a reduction ratio, specified in the catalogue. This should be somewhere between 60:1 and 160:1. I do not have a catalogue in front of me.
Assuming you are using it as a speed reducer, you multiply your desired output rotation by the reduction ratio to get the motor rotation.

In the servo software setup parameters there should be a scaling factor for “user units” so when programming you can enter the destination in degrees instead of calculating it each time.
