KHK Motion Drives Products
Achieving the intended function of a machine requires more than a single component; it demands the effective integration of various power transmission elements, including gears, to generate and precisely control a sequence of motion.
Kohara Gear Industry Co., Ltd. leverages its expertise and know-how as a gear manufacturer to deliver transmission solutions from the perspective of “designing motion,” contributing to the resolution of our customers’ challenges.
In addition, KHK Motion Drives is a new brand offering a carefully selected range of power transmission components to meet the diverse motion needs of mechanical designers, as outlined below.

Magnetic gears are gear-like power transmission components that transmit torque between two shafts without contact by means of magnetic force.
Magnetic gears enable non-contact torque transmission, delivering low-noise operation, maintenance-free (no lubrication) performance, and zero wear particle generation—capabilities not readily achievable with conventional mechanical gearing.
A magnetic coupling is a mechanical element that uses magnetic force to transmit power between two rotating shafts without physical contact, offering features such as easy attachment and alignment, the ability to function as a torque limiter, and the capability to transmit power across a barrier.
Smooth, Flexible Omnidirectional Movement
Omni wheels are omnidirectional wheels equipped with multiple barrel-shaped rollers around their circumference. The rollers rotate independently, allowing loads to move forward, backward, and sideways with minimal force. By combining multiple omni wheels, smooth movement in virtually any direction is possible, including diagonal movement and rotation in place. This makes them ideal for flexible and easy handling of pallets, large containers, and other loads.
