Hub gears

Hub gears for automated guided vehicles (AGVs).

With unattended operation around the clock, driverless transport systems (AGVs) in warehouses, parcel distribution centres and production halls ensure maximum profitability and reliability when distributing goods, packaging materials or components.

Hub gears from Framo Morat prove their value as wheel drives for AGVs due to the advantageous arrangement of both the bearings and the drive and output shafts. Furthermore, a compact design in confined spaces is possible.

The hub gears are available in the NG250, NG500 and NG750 variants, each in single- and double-stage versions with polyurethan wheels. Moreover, customer-specific adaptations, such as a brush seal for outdoor applications or a toothed belt for use in high-bay warehouses, can be made too.

Product features

Standard equipment

  • Compact design
    thanks to integration of planetary gearbox in wheel
  • High radial loads
    thanks to direct transfer of force to vehicle frame
  • Long lifetime and low noise level
    thanks to separation of torque and radial load
  • Proven technology
    thanks to established and consistent design
  • High availability and efficiency
    thanks to platform setup (NG250 | NG500 | NG750)
  • Easy to maintain
    e.g., thanks to exchangeable wheels

Optional equipment

  • Completely customized drive systems
    incl. motor, brake, encoder and controller
  • Individual motor adaptation
    through specially adapted stub shaft and motor bolt circle
