Product Features
- The housing is made of fine FG-260 grade C.I.
- The gearbox is equipped with well-designed fins and a suitable fan to dissipate heat.
- The entire design is based on BS 721:1963, with a precision level of A.
- The gearbox is designed to be interchangeable with standard gearboxes.
- The worm shaft is made of high-quality surface-hardened steel, precisely generated and ground for better performance.
- The worm wheel is made of extremely high-quality phosphor bronze, with a large cross-section (coupled with hub rigidity).
- The worm shaft and worm wheel shaft are installed on high-quality tapered roller/angular contact bearings to withstand axial thrust and suspended loads.
- At full load and 90??C temperature limit, the minimum gear life of all gearboxes is 20,000 hours. The gearbox requires no maintenance, just check the oil level every two weeks.
- All worm gearbox transmission ratios are from 5:1 to 70:1.
Structure of Worm Reducer
The Worm Reducer consists of the following parts:
- Worm shaft
- Worm wheel
- Bearing
- Housing
- Fins and fan
The worm shaft and worm wheel are the most important parts of the Worm Reducer. The worm shaft is made of high-quality surface-hardened steel, precisely generated and ground for better performance. The worm wheel is made of extremely high-quality phosphor bronze, with a large cross-section (coupled with hub rigidity). The bearing is used to support the worm shaft and worm wheel. The housing is made of fine FG-260 grade C.I. The fins and fan dissipate heat and keep the gearbox cool.
Choosing the Appropriate Worm Gearbox
The selection of a gear unit is completed by comparing the actual transmitted load with the catalog rated value. However, actual load conditions may vary or fluctuate depending on the type of application and, to handle the same, a usage factor must be considered to achieve the equivalent load or design power. Therefore, the equivalent load=actual load x usage factor. Mechanical rated value and service factor mechanical rated value are used to measure capacity in terms of life and/or strength, assuming continuous operation of 10 hours per day under uniform load conditions. If the equipment runs for more than 10 hours a day, the mechanical service factor should be chosen based on the type of prime mover, the hours of operation per day, the type of application connected to the equipment, and its load characteristics to ensure the appropriate gear life catalog rated value allows for 100% momentary overload during start-up, braking, or operation up to a maximum of 10 times per day. Therefore, the catalog rated value of the selected equipment should be at least equal to or greater than half of the maximum overload achieved during its operation period. The use of a gearbox's life is determined by comparing the actual transmitted load with the catalog rated value. The following steps should be taken:
- Calculate the required ratio.
- Calculate the design power based on the load type, working hours, and service factor.
- Calculate the output torque.
- Select the device based on the data.
Possible Problems and Solutions
| Problem | Cause | Solution |

Installation Tips for Gearbox
The gearbox should be firmly installed to minimize the impact of vibration or overload. It is necessary to check if it is aligned and to use dowel pins to properly position the gears, preferably in diagonal directions. Flexible couplings (gear couplings with rubber lining/tire couplings) are important for improving gearbox performance. The couplings should be aligned to avoid angular and eccentric misalignment.
Motors for Worm Gear Reducers
The motor and gearbox are essential components of power transmission equipment. The gearbox is used to change the speed and torque of the motor, while the motor provides power to the gearbox. Without a good motor, the gearbox will not perform optimally. Similarly, without a good gearbox, the motor will not be able to transmit power efficiently. At our company, we provide various electric motors for sale to complement our gearboxes. Our electric motors are of high quality and come in different sizes and models to meet your specific needs.
