Cycloid Drive Ratio Pack

Our cycloid drive in five more ratios for a NEMA17: 11, 15, 20, 30 and 40:1. Same bearings, pins and fits as the free 25:1.

Digitally verified, not yet printed. Only the free 25:1 has been printed and bench-tested; these ratios come from the same design engine, parts and fits. You print the parts and buy the bearings, dowel pins, screws and motor.

01 / The ratios

Pick your speed.

Pins = ratio + 1. Output speed is the 560 rpm motor limit we measured on the 25:1 bench, divided by the ratio.

02 / Digital checks

What we checked.

  • Disc-to-pin clearance 0.100 mm at 72 cam angles over a full turn, every ratio
  • Ten wall-thickness checks per ratio, all at least 1.3 mm
  • Every STL watertight, one solid, flat on the bed; a clean, support-free reference slice
  • The same engine rebuilds the printed 25:1 parts to within 0.11% of their volume
  • Not printed yet: only the free 25:1 has been printed and bench-tested
03 / The download

What’s in the pack.

  • Five gearboxes: print-ready STLs, STEP files of every part and the assembly, and a mount drawing (DXF) for each
  • An 18-piece fit test for every press and slide fit
  • An 18-page guide: choosing a ratio, BOM per ratio, print settings, assembly, wiring, troubleshooting
  • A no-library ESP32 / Arduino test sketch for a TMC2209 driver
  • BOM.csv with quantities per ratio

The parts we use are listed at harbeworks.com/parts.

Build the tested one first.

The 25:1 is free: same bearings, pins and fit test.
