A conceptual planetary actuator, presented as an interactive engineering study. The supplied exploded illustration guides the horizontal composition and cream background. Atlas-style controls let you inspect, isolate and reassemble the components.
This reuses the Atlas’s procedural geometry. It is not a manufacturer teardown or dimensional CAD. The 15 entries include assemblies; electronics, windings, bearing details, packaging and tooth profiles are simplified.
The gearset has an 18-tooth sun, three 18-tooth planets and a fixed 54-tooth ring. The carrier turns once for four sun revolutions. Motion is slowed for inspection. The 4× torque relationship is an ideal lossless example.
