WITTENSTEIN are leaders in mechanical and mechatronic servo drive systems for applications, like the attractions industry, that require maximum precision.
The portfolio contains cost-effective solutions such as planetary gearboxes, servo right-angle gearboxes, complete rack and pinion systems, design tools for the entire drive train and accessories. The company also produced bespoke high end solutions to suit any project across themed entertainment.
- safety, products are designed with functional safety and high overload in mind.
- high mechanical demands, products can withstand high vibrations, temperature fluctuations and acceleration forces for safe operation.
- compact design, the highest power from the smallest footprint, compact to fit into any project.
- reliability, robust designed, sensor-based products maximise operations and prevent downtime.
- sustainability, eco-friendly rides, optimised energy efficiency and high power density, engineered by the cymex® 5 software.
WITTENSTEIN products are suitable for all types of complex themed entertainment projects including:
DARK RIDES
With high acceleration, dynamic rides and many different forms of movement and visual effects, the company’s products can be utilised to maximise high acceleration and precise movements in Dark Rides. Suitable products include: SP+ and TP+, hypoid gearboxes TPK+, premo® servo actuators and customised cyber® force actuator and cyber® iTAS® system 2.
COASTERS
WITTENSTEIN products can drive the trains, but also more and more complex coasters need compact servo gearheads and servo actuators that can be integrated into the track structure or carriages. This enables the coaster to do complex movements such as points for parallel track sections that have to be switched, or spinning carriages. The SP+/TP+/XP+ servo gearheads and premo® servo actuators offer high power density and optimum energy efficiency.
FLYING THEATRES AND MOTION SEATS
The company’s products can help move guest’s stands or individual rows or seats to create unique flying theatre experiences. There is a wide variety of products from large applications like the TP+ 2000 gearboxes with high stiffness and low backlash to small linear actuators like the cyber® dynamic actuator L and cyber® dynamic system with integrated power electronics.
THRILL RIDES
WITTENSTEIN products can be used on thrill rides that change in height, swivel and turn. It’s space-saving, prevision focused drive technology such as the premo® and cyber® force actuators can thrill guests and create memorable exciting experiences.
ANIMATRONICS
The company’s highly compact linear cyber® dynamic actuator L/R and cyber® dynamic motors can perform precise and quiet movements to bring animatronics to life or the cyber® simco® drive 2 servo drive. The revolutionary hollow shaft Galaxie®gearbox, can also be used, which offers zero backlash and maximum rigidity.
