Structure of the Product

Gearbox Casing

The gearbox casing is designed in a streamlined manner, providing a sturdy structure made of fine-grained cast iron. It is completely oil and dust resistant, eliminating the need for additional covers during outdoor installations. The surface and bore are precisely drilled and machined using the latest precision machinery to ensure perfect alignment and interchangeability.

Worm/Worm Wheel

The worm is made of carburized, ground, and polished carburized alloy steel, integrated with the shaft. The bearing journals are precisely ground. The worm wheel is made of centrifugally cast phosphor bronze rim. The worm is machined on a dedicated worm milling machine and undergoes gas carburizing and grinding on an automatic workpiece grinder. The worm wheel is hobbed using high precision hobbing cutters on a precision gear hobbing machine. Each worm wheel is inspected and matched with the main worm to ensure complete interchangeability.

Bearings

The worm and worm wheel are supported by ball or roller anti-friction bearings, providing ample safety margin to withstand sufficient journal and thrust loads. Cantilever loads generated by chain or small gear drives are generally permissible as the gearbox and bearings are designed for such loads. However, complete detailed information should be provided for confirmation. Additional roller bearings can be provided in cases of heavy cantilever loads.

Shaft

The shaft is made of high-strength carbon steel. The large diameter of the shaft enables it to withstand torsional and bending loads that may be caused by cantilever driving.

Features of the Worm Gear Unit

- High load carrying capacity- Efficient heat dissipation- Easy replacement without opening the gearbox- Wide range of applications- Reliable and durable construction

Dimensions

Installation Positions

The single-piece universal housing comes with top and bottom flanges and also provides support flanges, allowing the gearbox to be installed in various positions such as low speed, high speed, and vertical. This means that internal components can be interchanged for all installation positions. To switch from low speed to high speed or vice versa, simply invert the device and change the positions of the drain plug, breather plug, and oil level indicator. The robust and compact streamlined design ensures ample heat capacity.
