The SNU-SM Worm Gear Unit is part of the Elecon SNU Modular Universal Mounting series. Our company offers a replacement for this unit, which has broader ribs to increase heat dissipation and a streamlined oil sump to carry more oil. The larger fan enhances the gearbox's heat rating capacity, meaning that the continuous load capacity is increased without experiencing a significant increase in temperature. Unlike manual replacement, the fan and fan cover only need to be swapped from one end of the worm shaft to the other. Please note that our company only provides replacement parts for the original factory parts, contact the original supplier for original factory parts purchases.

The gearbox housing is of a streamlined design and is made of high-quality, fine-grain cast iron. It is oil and dust resistant, and it can be installed outdoors without a separate cover. The surface and aperture use the latest precision machines for accurate drilling and processing, ensuring perfect alignment and interchangeability. The worm is made of carburized alloy steel that has been ground and polished, and the bearings are precision bearings that support the worm gear. The worm wheel is manufactured from phosphor bronze wheel rims that have been centrifugally cast. Each worm wheel is checked and matched with the primary worm to ensure complete interchangeability. The gearbox's worm and worm wheel are supported by ball or roller bearings and have adequate safety margins to withstand sufficient shaft and thrust loads. However, complete and detailed information should be provided to confirm whether the cantilever load generated by the chain sprocket or small gear drive is permissible since the gearbox and bearings are designed for this purpose. If the cantilever load is too high, additional roller bearings can be provided. The shaft is made of high-strength carbon steel, and its large diameter can support the twist and bending loads that might be generated by cantilever drive.



The single-piece universal housing has top and bottom flanges and also provides supporting flanges, making the gearbox suitable for universal installation in positions such as low speed, high speed, and vertical. Therefore, internal components can be interchanged for all installation positions. By simply inverting the device and swapping the positions of the drain plug, vent plug, and oil level indicator, the installation position can be quickly changed from low speed to high speed and vice versa. The sturdy and compact streamlined design, along with ample heat capacity, enhances the heat rating's capacity.

| Problem | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| The gearbox is vibrating. | The gearbox is not level or the motor is not aligned with the gearbox. | Adjust the level of the gearbox and align the motor with the gearbox. |
| The gearbox is making an unusual noise. | The gears are not meshing properly or there is too much backlash. | Ensure that the gears are meshing correctly and adjust the backlash. |
| The gearbox is leaking oil. | The oil seal is damaged or there is too much oil in the gearbox. | Replace the oil seal and ensure that the oil level is correct. |
| The gearbox is overheating. | There is not enough lubrication or the gearbox is overloaded. | Ensure that there is enough lubrication and reduce the load on the gearbox. |
| The gearbox is not transmitting power correctly. | The gears are worn or the bearings are damaged. | Replace the worn gears and damaged bearings. |

The motor and gearbox are critical components for any mechanical system that needs to transmit energy. The worm reducer and electric motor need to work together to achieve the desired output speed and torque. The motor needs to be correctly rated for the application and should be adequately installed to avoid any unnecessary stress on the gearbox. Our company also provides various electric motors for sale that can be used with our worm gearboxes. We offer motors that are suitable for various applications and are highly efficient.
