High precision gearboxes for defence and homeland security
SPINEA, s.r.o. located in Presov, town in Eastern Slovakia is rapidly growing Slovak company. Its products – high precision reduction gears belong to world hi-tec products in the field of machinery. Spinea is considered to be a technology leader in this segment. There are only 4 companies in the world which are able to manage the production of such a highly sophisticated products, where three of them are Japanese and one is from Slovakia, SPINEA.
Success story
SPINEA is the youngest among the companies in this field. It has though the biggest potential of growth thanks to the quality of technical solution, which is based on the patent of Slovak origin. It was the idea of an unique solution and the courage to invest into the execution of this idea, which were at the birth of the company in 1994, built on the green field. Nowadays we may say that this effort brought the fruits and the reputation of the company is high. The company was accepted in 2008 into the exclusive association of robotic companies EUnited robotics in Brussels, as the first producer of reducers at all.
Advantages of the Twinspin reducers
Twinspin is a unique type of a reduction gear. It is used for the connection with servomotors in order to reduce the initial speed of the servomotor to the required speed at the output depending on the application, where the reduction is practically zero backlash an therefore very precise. If we add small outer dimensions, low weight and low noisiness with the high reduction ratios possible you will get our main advantages. We produce gears from the size 50 mm, which is a size of bigger watch to size 400 mm. In contrast to our competition our gear incorporates the reduction mechanism and radial axial gear into single unit, which guaranties the stability of performance during the lifetime period. These advantages determine the application of our units in robotics, machine building, tube benders, paper machines, packaging machines, welding machines, medical appliances, positioning of radars, cameras and solar panels.
Competitiveness leads through innovations
Company must be at least one step ahead the customer. A new product was developed as a connection of synchronous servomotor and reduction gear into a single unit under the name Drivespin. Installation of the unit is much more easier and the connection and sealing of the motor and reducer are no needed any more. By this way customers get compact unit, which technical solution brings much better features as in the case of performing the connection by customers themselves.
Twinspin – the present and the future solution for defence industry
Research and development in the military field and constant improving of the current military products and systems require unprecedented quality and high precision components more than ever before. Replacement of cost and space consuming hydraulic systems by electro mechanical ones is the trend and the ideal solution appears the Twinspin reducer or compact actuator the Drivespin. Stable performance, high precision and small dimensions are
advantages of these products which attract mechanical engineers working in the defence field worldwide. Twinspin reducers and Drivespins can be used for monitoring and surveillance systems with the latest generation of pan-tilt heads with higher payload and higher precision in all axis. Then they can be incorporated in biaxial manipulators for weapon stations, remote controlled vehicles or training and simulation systems.
