Apiro bevel gear 1:1

At igus®, Apiro® stands for inexpensive worm gears and flexible, customer-specific solutions. The modular gearbox system offers a wide range of products based on the combination of various designs on input and output of the gearbox, different transmission ratios and a wide range of accessories. In addition to worm gears, the modular gearbox system also includes bevel gears and linear gears.

A modular structure and the simple connection of individual components allow cost-effective solutions for an infinite number of applications. Hence the name: "Apiro" is the Greek word for "infinite".

Apiro® can also be used to implement special solutions quickly and with little cost.
