SRH Series – WPU-SRH-BD

Hollow Shaft Unit

The Next-Gen WPU-SRH Series is a compact hollow-shaft gearhead that combines Nidec’s advanced FLEXWAVE gear technology with integrated torque and temperature sensing for superior performance and control. Designed for high-torque, zero-backlash operation, it offers exceptional precision, rigidity, and durability in a slim form factor.

The large hollow input shaft simplifies cable or shaft routing, while the robust cross-roller output bearing and flange allow direct load mounting — eliminating external bearings. TÜV SÜD safety certification ensures compliance and reliability across robotics, automation, aerospace, medical, and precision equipment applications.

Features

  • Zero backlash, high torque, and superior torsional stiffness
  • Built-in multi sensor for real-time torque and temperature monitoring
  • Large hollow input shaft for easy integration
  • Positioning accuracy
  • Direct-mount output flange with cross-roller bearing support
  • TÜV SÜD safety certified
