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

Mechanical drives take supplied torque and may increase or reduce that torque based on application. Also velocity is increased or decreased in proportion index G – GEAR BOXES – on blue – smallto the speed reduction ratio. EP includes a full line of gearboxes and acceleration reducers, and the elements had a need to build them, in an array of standard ratios and shaft options as well as custom designs.
Helical, bevel, and miter equipment boxes provide options of swiftness reducers or rate increasers, and may be driven in either path. All EP worm gear speed reducers and right angle drives are manufactured for powerful in a large spectrum of applications. Typically worm gear boxes are not used as swiftness increasers. The instances are molded glass-filled materials making them extremely tough and resistant to corrosive conditions. They are offered in an array of ratios and are equipped with right hands or left hand worm gears. The output shafts may be solid or hollow, and load capability is unaffected by direction and rotation.
Worm gear quickness reducers are comprised of a good screw (the worm) that drives a steering wheel (helical gear) or solitary enveloping wheel and so are used in mechanical applications ranging 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 wheel includes a pin that gets to into a slot of the powered steering wheel advancing it by one step and a blocking disk that locks the driven wheel constantly in place between steps.
Compact design
Compact design is among the key terms of the typical gearboxes of the BJ-Series. Further optimisation can be achieved by using adapted gearboxes or unique gearboxes.
Low noise
Our worm gearboxes and actuators are really quiet. This is due to the very smooth running of the worm equipment combined with the utilization of cast iron and excessive precision on component manufacturing and assembly. Regarding the our precision gearboxes, we take extra treatment of any sound that can be interpreted as a murmur from the gear. Therefore the general noise level of our gearbox is definitely reduced to a complete minimum.
Angle gearboxes
On the worm gearbox the input shaft and output shaft are perpendicular to one another. This generally proves to become a decisive advantage making the incorporation of the gearbox considerably simpler and smaller sized.The worm gearbox can be an angle gear. This is often an edge for incorporation into constructions.
Solid 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 needing to create a separate suspension.
Self locking
For larger equipment ratios,EP-Gear’s worm gearboxes provides a self-locking impact, which in many circumstances can be utilized as brake or as extra protection. As well spindle gearboxes with a trapezoidal spindle are self-locking, making them perfect for an array of solutions.
Structural Features
The worm-gear reducer comprises of three main parts: housing, worm-gear and wheel.
The carcasses are constructed with GG-25 cast-iron, and are available for all sorts of gear-reducer. This make them perform efficiently under stressed conditions, vibrations or any type of setback that can’t be avoided during 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. Because of the mechanical work of the two parts having top quality, excellent efficiency and low noises levels have been achived.
The output shaft is hollow, though it can be done to adapt a solid shaft.
The oil seals manufactured from 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), supply the best gear reducer out there.
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 exists like response to the request of our costumers since, upon mounting better bearings in the result, bears better axial loads that its analogous one in the MF-62 series. The others of technical feature are similar to the its analogous in the size 62.
Assembly Position
In order to set up a gear reducer and also to make it happen efficiently, the following instructions must be taken into account:
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 recommended to insert compensating couplings, connectors, torque limiters etc…
If the apparatus reducer had to be painted, the essential oil seals should be covered to avoid them from drying and losing their seal.
The device work of the fittings setup in the output shafts require an ISO H7 or h6 margin for the hollow shaft.
Backdriving
It is smart to pay attention to this point when the gear reducer output shaft is driven instead of being a driver. Bearing in mind that among the top features of this worm-gear reducer is the fact that cannot be axle-powered by the output shaft (irreversibility), it is almost difficult to meet up total irreversibility conditions, due to external factors such as for example vibrations, etc. For this reason, when the application requires total irreversibility, it really is advisable to utilize exterior brakes with enough power to avoid slipping.
It may be said that the circumstances under which irreversibility can occur are as follows:
• Efficiency < 0,55 (find table of specialized features).
Maintenance
This sort of gear reducer will get a permanent lubrication, so that it will not need any kind of maintenance.
Lubrication
The lubrication of the gear reducer type is constant and comes as standard, with high quality refined oil which has antirust and antiwear products with Fe, Cu and alloy protectors which has level of quality CLP DIN 51517-3, FGZ level 12, AP GL-4, US 224, AGMA 250-04; for that reason its maintenance isn’t needed.
