What is a Cycloidal Drive with Rolling Element?

A cycloidal drive with rolling element uses an eccentric input to drive a cycloidal disc that engages with a ring of rollers, converting high-speed low-torque input into low-speed high-torque output through the rolling contact between the disc and rollers. This mechanism offers minimal backlash, high torque capacity, and compact size, which is ideal for robotic applications.
