APPLICATIONS
AMORPHOUS METAL GEARS
PLANETARY GEARBOXES / HIGH MODULE GEARS (ISO 3 PRECISION)
- Amorphology developed the first commercial operation for designing and injection molding BMG gearboxes, achieving ISO 3 precision while reducing manufacturing time and costs.
- Amorphous metals offer high strength, hardness, and excellent wear/corrosion resistance due to their disordered atomic structure.
- They exhibit lower friction and wear in unlubricated conditions compared to steel or titanium, reducing adhesive wear and galling.
- These properties make them ideal for gearboxes that operate without lubrication in harsh environments.
STRAINWAVE GEAR FLEXSPLINES
- Strain wave gears are compact, zero-backlash gearboxes used in robotic arms and precision-motion systems.
- The flexspline, a flexible, thin-walled component with precise gear teeth, is key to their function but drives up manufacturing costs.
- Amorphology’s amorphous metal precision molding enables cost-effective production of flexsplines with machining-level tolerances.

SPRINGS & COMPLIANT MECHANISMS
- Compliant mechanisms use elastic deformation for movement in industries like aerospace, optics, bio-implants, and sporting equipment.
- Amorphous metals (BMGs) are highly elastic, with a strain limit of 1.5-2%, outperforming traditional spring materials like steel and titanium.
- With low damping, amorphous metals are ideal for applications requiring efficient elastic energy storage and release.
