Unmanned Ground Vehicles are widely used in industrial applications to transport products, parts and raw materials through production lines or in a logistics warehouse. They are also widely used in military applications

AGVs (Automatic Guided Vehicle) are guided using integrated cables, magnetic strips, QR code stickers or laser targets. AMRs, (Autonomous Mobile Robots) on the other hand, use integrated cameras and sensors to navigate the most efficient route between a starting point and a destination. AMRs not only avoid obstacles, but actively and safely maneuver around obstacles along an alternate route to continue the mission.

We have extensive experience in the calculation and design of gears for unmanned vehicle drive wheels. We design robust and high efficiency gears that reduce the size of batteries and avoid production downtime, always guaranteeing a long life for the transmissions and wheels.

We are a gear design engineering company that works with you from start to finish or throughout any phase of the process to design the optimum transmission with the highest level of quality and precision.

Gear transmissions designed by Santa Fe ECS for Unmanned Ground Vehicles UGV, AGV and AMR

Civil

Planetary and wright angle gear units for

• Vehicles for very light payload (up to 2 Tons)
• Vehicles for light payload (up to 30 Tons)
• Vehicles for heavy payload (up tp 200 Tons)

Defence

Planetary gear units for traction wheels

• UGV for detection and location of antipersonnel mines
• UGV for handling and/or defusing explosive objects

High-precision mechanical transmission with large center hole and integrated high-load capacity bearing

• This system orients the robotic arm with high precision and allows the passage of cables from the sensors and manipulator gripper.
