Worm Wheel Miniature Gearboxes
Our RW series miniature worm gear box assembly may be small, but it’s hard enough to take care of demanding ability transfer applications. Designed with machined aluminum housings and hardened steel input and output gears, they’ll deliver a long time of reliable performance.
Obtainable in three standard result ratios and with several output shaft size options, it’s easy to find the EP right miniature gearbox for your needs. Each RW version worm gear package assembly provides proportionally large torque values (1.4 NM at 3,000 RPM) with suprisingly low backlash (optimum 2° backlash).

Mechanical drives take supplied torque and could increase or reduce that torque predicated on application. Also quickness is increased or reduced compared index G – GEAR BOXES – on blue – smallto the speed reduction ratio. EP includes a full line of gearboxes and velocity reducers, and the parts needed to build them, in an array of standard ratios and shaft options in addition to custom designs.
Helical, bevel, and miter equipment boxes provide options of rate reducers or quickness increasers, and could be driven in either path. All EP worm gear speed reducers and right angle drives are manufactured for high performance in a large spectrum of applications. Commonly worm gear boxes are not used as velocity increasers. The instances are molded glass-filled materials making them extremely durable and resistant to corrosive environments. They can be found in a wide range of ratios and are equipped with right hand or left hand worm gears. The result shafts may be stable or hollow, and load capability is unaffected by path and rotation.
Worm gear quickness reducers are made up of a good screw (the worm) that drives a steering wheel (helical gear) or single enveloping wheel and so are found in mechanical applications which range from conveyors to physical exercise devices to robots.
Geneva mechanisms and assemblies are usually used to transform continuous rotary movement into intermittent rotary motion. The rotating drive steering wheel has a pin that reaches right into a slot of the powered wheel advancing it by one stage and a blocking disk that locks the driven wheel in position between steps.
Compact design
Compact design is among the key phrases of the typical gearboxes of the BJ-Series. Further optimisation can be achieved through the use of adapted gearboxes or unique gearboxes.
Low noise
Our worm gearboxes and actuators are extremely quiet. This is because of the very smooth operating of the worm equipment combined with the utilization of cast iron and great precision on component manufacturing and assembly. Regarding the our accuracy gearboxes, we consider extra care of any sound that can be interpreted as a murmur from the apparatus. Therefore the general noise level of our gearbox is usually reduced to an absolute minimum.
Angle gearboxes
On the worm gearbox the input shaft and output shaft are perpendicular to each other. This quite often proves to be a decisive advantage making the incorporation of the gearbox considerably simpler and more compact.The worm gearbox can be an angle gear. This is an advantage for incorporation into constructions.
Strong bearings in solid housing
The output shaft of the BJ worm gearbox is quite firmly embedded in the gear house and is perfect for immediate suspension for wheels, movable arms and other parts rather than having to build a separate suspension.
Self locking
For larger gear ratios,EP-Gear’s worm gearboxes will provide a self-locking effect, which in many circumstances can be utilized as brake or as extra security. Likewise spindle gearboxes with a trapezoidal spindle happen to be self-locking, making them well suited for a wide range of solutions.
Structural Features
The worm-gear reducer is made up of three main parts: housing, worm-gear and wheel.
The carcasses are made of GG-25 cast-iron, and are available for all types of gear-reducer. This make sure they are perform effectively under stressed conditions, vibrations or any kind of setback that cannot be avoided through the assembly
The worm-gear is made of hardened and quench-hardened steel, with ground- on teeth sides, and the crowns made of DIN (GZ-CuSn 12 Ni2) centricast bronze, melted on steel. Due to the mechanical work of these two parts having high quality, excellent overall performance and low noises amounts have been achived.
The output shaft is hollow, although it is possible to adapt a good shaft.
The oil seals made of NITRILE BUTADIENE, according to DIN 3760, top quality bearings, an EPOXY- impregnated finish ( 2 components), and grey-coloured SINGLE LAYER ENAMEL finish ( 2 components) ( RAL 7672), provide the best gear reducer on the market.
Size 63
In the size 62 of the MF series, worm-gear reducers, the output hollow shaft of diameter 30 has been included, that substitutes to the output hollow shaft with diameter 25, from size 62. This variant offers like reference size 63 and is born like answer to the request of our costumers since, upon mounting greater bearings in the result, bears greater axial loads that its analogous one in the MF-62 series. The rest of technical feature are similar to the its analogous in the size 62.
Assembly Position
In order to create a gear reducer and to make it work efficiently, the next instructions must be considered:
It should be fixed on a flat surface to avoid either vibrations or perhaps tensions.
If undistributed loads or continued start-ups are foreseen, it is suggested to insert compensating couplings, connectors, torque limiters etc…
If the gear reducer had to be painted, the essential oil seals should be covered to avoid them from drying and losing their seal.
The machine work of the fittings set up in the output shafts need an ISO H7 or h6 margin for the hollow shaft.
Backdriving
It is wise to pay attention to this factor when the gear reducer output shaft is driven rather than being a driver. Bearing in mind that one of the features of this worm-gear reducer is the fact that cannot be axle-powered by the output shaft (irreversibility), it really is almost unattainable to meet total irreversibility conditions, due to external elements such as vibrations, etc. This is why, when the application requires total irreversibility, it really is advisable to make use of external brakes with enough power to avoid slipping.
It could be said that the circumstances under which irreversibility can occur are as follows:
• Efficiency < 0,55 (discover table of specialized features).
Maintenance
This type of gear reducer will get a permanent lubrication, so it will not need any kind of maintenance.
Lubrication
The lubrication of this gear reducer type is constant and comes as standard, with top quality refined oil which has antirust and antiwear products with Fe, Cu and alloy protectors which has quality level CLP DIN 51517-3, FGZ level 12, AP GL-4, US 224, AGMA 250-04; because of this its maintenance isn’t needed.
