The innovative gear solutions that we provide have dramatic advantages as a result of our new and fundamentally different technology.

Zoltán Kovács

PhD Physics
R&D

In our technology, we use purely rolling balls to couple the wheels of the gears in order to eliminate friction and the corresponding energy losses.

Engineering

The energy efficiency of our gears is close to 100% – as a result we can reduce energy costs and CO2 emissions by up to 70% depending on the application.

Further advantages include smaller size, simpler design, lower noise, longer life, higher precision and haptic & backdrivable capabilities.

Tibor Hodász

MSc Engineering
Sales & Marketing

Our new gear technology is applicable in practically all machines that move across the entire gigantic machinery universe.

Pál Schmidt

Short term, as a beach head market, we are focusing on electric vehicle applications, but longer term, we want to expand to other markets too.

FRICTION CAUSES PROBLEMS IN GEARS

GEARS ARE KEY COMPONENTS TO EVS

Couple the motor & the wheels
Transform speed & torque
Transmit power at high efficiency

FRICTION IN GEARS CAUSES PROBLEMS

Higher energy cost  –  due to energy loss
Higher climate warming  –  due to CO2 loss
Shorter driving range  –  due to energy loss
Higher equipment cost  –  due to gear damage such as wear & abrasion, lifetime reduction, failure

EVS ARE CRUCIAL FOR CLIMATE ACTION

Must spread wide & fast
Technology must advance further & faster

Gear friction reduces EVs driving range
Range is no.1 concern for EV buyers
Holds back EVs market spread

EVs range too short about 500 km (300 miles)
Since onboard stored energy too small
Since battery energy density too low

… better not waste it on friction

 

OUR GOAL IS TO ELIMINATE FRICTION IN GEARS

sincroll® GEARS OFFER SOLUTION

IN OUR NEW TECHNOLOGY WE FUNDAMENTALLY ELIMINATE FRICTION

PARADIGM-SHIFT TECHNOLOGY:

We use rolling balls to couple the gear wheels

Drastically differs from the state of the art

‘FUNDAMENTALLY’ ZERO FRICTION:

In the model of perfect rigidity & accuracy

Rolling balls suffer perfect zero friction

Gears make perfect 100% efficiency

All friction problems fully solved

Complex know-how

Many solutions, one technology

We cover the entire gear universe

We can generate solutions for any gear specifications, shaft angles & offsets, any gearing ratios, size & speed, for any gear applications, in any machines that move

UNIQUE TECHNOLOGY PROPOSES UNIQUE VALUE

WE CAN RAISE EVS EFFICIENCY BY ABOUT 8%

Motto from a major car OEM  –  ‘We can kill for HALF percent efficiency gain…’

Globally, we can save per year

€ trillions of charging costs
gigatons of CO2 emissions

as EVs take over the entire vehicle market.

 

For an EV, we can extend driving range by

40 km (25 miles) per single charge
1400 km per year

This is of critical usability value since EV charging typically takes
4-8 hours and destination must be reached within a single charge.

sincroll® gears further advantages include

[ In addition to zero friction and 100% efficiency ]
Smaller size & weight, simpler design
Higher speed reduction, higher reliability, robust
Lower noise, higher precision & no backlash
Less lubrication, less maintenance, longer life
Rich variety of solutions, flexible & special designs
Haptic & backdrivable capabilities, force feedback

Extending the range of applicability & competitive edge

Further applications include

[ In addition to all vehicles: air, land, sea and space ]
Robotics & automation
Flight control, automotive control, self driving
Water & wind turbines
High precision devices
High vacuum & ultra clean environment
Plastic gears

In case of EVs, further advantages besides zero friction
include higher speed reduction & simpler design
