One of the finest advantages derived from the Harmonic Drive Rotary Actuator, would be to guarantee true zero backlash with no small delay or movement occurring when the actuator's direction shifts. There would be no play between components in the harmonic drive system, making their means of connection tooth-to-tooth so that there would be no gap for the movement of the teeth. Thus, extremely accurate motion control makes them ideal for applications demanding high precision, like robotics, CNC, and aerospace.

One more advantage of the Harmonic Drive Rotary Actuator is that it transmits high torque in a much smaller package. The strain wave gearing design enables the very actuator to produce tremendous output torque delivering exceptional power for applications that need accurate movement and very precise force. Its ability to generate such high torque is primarily demanded for driving heavy loads in very tight spaces, thus making it a great choice for robotics, medical devices, and aerospace systems, where space constraints and high performance are critical.

The Harmonic Drive Rotary Actuator is superior in compactness. This special gear mechanism helps the actuator provide very high torque and performance in a small package when compared to traditional gearing systems. It has the ability to find itself being applied in all sorts of settings where space is limited, including robotic joints, satellites, and small industrial machinery. It can handle unusually large amounts of load-bearing and motion control tasks for a device that is compact, therefore the perfect candidate for modern technologies constrained with space.
