Thanks to their high torsional stiffness and minimal rotational clearance, servo gear units enable very high accelerations and torques. Servo gear units are therefore indispensable in applications requiring highly accurate positioning, short cycle times, exact speeds, high processing rates, and maximum dynamics.
Servo in Industrial Automation
In advanced industrial automation systems, such as robotic arms, production lines, and pick-and-place systems, servo gear units are needed to provide precise movement and positioning. Servo gear units offer high torque-density ratios for accurate handling of complex and challenging goods. They contribute to improved productivity, reliability, and flexibility in sorting machines, packaging machines, conveyor systems, palletizers, and AGVs.
Servo in Food Processing
In the food processing industry, servo gear units are essential for machines and processes where the quality and uniformity of the final product are crucial. Servo gear units’ advanced design ensures smooth and seamless motion transmission, reducing friction and vibration.
This enables quieter operation and a longer service life. Thanks to the high torque, tough ingredients can be mixed efficiently, including those with challenging textures. This makes servo gear units ideal for a wide range of applications in the food processing industry, such as mixers, kneading machines, sauce and dressing mixers, vegetable and fruit puree machines, and herb and spice mills.
Servo in Transport and Logistics Systems
In transport and logistics systems, servo gear units play an important role by supporting precise and reliable motion control. These gear units optimize the efficiency of conveyors, sorters, and packaging machines by enabling fast acceleration and deceleration. They guarantee constant speeds and positioning, resulting in streamlined logistics operations with minimal downtime. Commonly used in robots and cobots, CNC machines, fulfillment, and intralogistics storage and retrieval systems.
Everything you need to know about Servo Gear Units
What role do servo gear units play in precision motion control systems?
Servo gear units are mechanical components used to reduce the rotational speed of an industrial servo motor in order to increase its output torque. By ensuring that there is a stable balance between the inertia of the motor and the driven load, a servo gear unit facilitates accurate positioning, precision speed control, and high dynamic responses in automation. This is necessary in order to ensure mechanical rigidity and prevent indexing problems in fast start/stop operations.
Why does a machine builder select a specialized servo gear unit instead of a regular gearbox?
A machine builder will always opt for a specialized servo gear unit since conventional industrial gearboxes are characterized by excessive backlash, and have no ability to cope with fast acceleration provided by a servo motor.
A specialized servo gear unit is designed with very low backlash and great torsional stiffness in addition to optimized gearing. As a result, there is always full correspondence between the motor shaft’s angular position and the angular position of the output shaft.
What servo gear units are available from BEGE?
BEGE offers a wide variety of top-quality servo gear units manufactured by our precision partner companies including Atek and LS Electric. Below is a table that shows the technical features of the different series of servo gear units:
| Servo Gear Unit Series | Gearing Type | Transmission Ratio Range | Primary Mechanical Characteristic |

What are the advantages of servo gear units in food processing and packaging machinery?
Servo gear units provide high-quality performance in the form of vibration-free smooth motion profiles in packaging and food processing equipment. Thanks to its high torque density and low backlash, servo gear units enable precise cuts, sealing processes, and efficient cartoning. Furthermore, the servo gear unit can cope with the intense demands placed on them during dosing and mixing cycles in food processing machines while providing exact process repeatability.
What is the role of servo gear units in industrial automation and robotics?
Servo gear units play an indispensable role in robotic and automation machinery because they have high mechanical rigidity needed to withstand high acceleration speeds and quick multi-axis movements. Due to their precision planetary or hypoid design, servo gear units ensure reliable braking of robotic arms, preventing overshoot when coming to a stop while loaded. Thus, robotic machinery can enjoy short cycle times and high throughput rates without mechanical downtime.
Will servo gear units from BEGE be suitable for another brand of servo motors?
Indeed, BEGE precision servo gear units, which come from suppliers such as Atek and LS Electric, are characterized by a highly flexible mounting structure with an input flange. It means that BEGE’s gear units boast a modular design that allows for easy integration into nearly any brand of industrial servo motors available. The technical team of BEGE assists engineers in confirming the dimensions of motors to ensure robust mechanical coupling.
Which servo gear unit parameters are most significant when specifying a machine's needs?
The main parameters that should be taken into account when evaluating the quality of a servo gear unit are the transmission ratio, rated output torque, maximum input speed, and angular torsional backlash (measured in arcminutes). Other relevant servo gear unit performance characteristics include its peak torque for emergency braking operations, installation space (in-line planetary or right-angle helical bevel), efficiency requirements, and environmental conditions of the plant.
Is BEGE able to combine servo gear units into one motion control solution?
Certainly, BEGE works with industrial customers as a co-engineering automation solutions provider. Instead of supplying separate mechanical components to machine builders, BEGE integrates precisely engineered servo gear units with appropriate PM servo motors, servo drives, PLCs, motion controllers, HMIs, etc. Due to strong collaboration with leading hardware suppliers such as Atek and LS Electric, BEGE can handle all technical synchronization processes.
