Any situation where you require lifting of the robot or something similar that requires full anti-backdrive I would use a pinned cycloidal versaplanetary stage. But if it doesn't need to be that strong and you want better efficiency, a roller cycloidal stage would work better.
What's the difference between a pinned and a roller cycloidal stage?
Thanks!
