Abstract

RV transmission device is a new type of few teeth difference planetary transmission, which is widely used in robot joints, elbow and other precision transmission parts due to the high driving accuracy. Taking the RV-40E reducer as an example, transmission error dynamical model and mathematical equations of RV reducer used in robot were established using dynamic sub-structure method. The max transmission error of RV-40E reducer was calculated by theoretical calculation and experiment respectively. The max transmission error calculated from two methods changes periodically within 1′. But the experiment measured transmission error is greater than the theoretical transmission error, due to the bearing clearance and friction in the experimental process were not considered.
