A cycloid gear, also known as a cycloidal drive or a cycloidal reducer, is a type of gear

mechanism that uses a high-precision cycloidal motion to achieve speed reduction or torque
amplification. Here are some key points to note about cycloid gears:

Cycloidal Motion: The fundamental principle of a cycloid gear is the generation of cycloidal
motion. This motion is created by a set of pins or lobes on an input rotor that move within the
lobed interior of an output cam. As the input rotor rotates, the pins trace a path along the
interior of the cam, producing a cycloidal motion.

High Reduction Ratios: Cycloid gears are known for their ability to achieve high reduction
ratios in a relatively compact and lightweight design. This makes them suitable for
applications where space is limited, and high torque or precision is required.

Backlash-Free Operation: Cycloid gears exhibit minimal to no backlash, which is the play or
clearance between gear teeth common in other types of gears. This
