EP worm gearboxes possess earned a status to be a business benchmark worldwide. Our achievement originated from our relentless travel for quality with state-of-the-art technology, all while offering worm gearboxes happen to be affordable prices. High flexibility accorded through a wide choice of mounting options, shaft configurations and engine interfaces, will make the EP worm gearbox the default choice for the sector. The helical-worm and the double-worm version, with or without the torque limiter, add up to the advantage, creating an extremely versatile drive system.
EP Worm gearboxes provide substantial torque with low rate gear ratio. Being basic and compact in design, these gears can achieve higher gear ratio compared to the helical gears. These worm decrease gears having screw type qualities act like helical gears, but its helix angle is typically comparatively larger) and its own body is normally quite long in the axial path. The gears in these gearboxes can be correct or left-handed depending upon the purpose.
Mounting option include universal housing, aspect flanges, foot (horizontal and vertical), shaft mounted with torque arm. Available in Solid shafts (solitary or double), with torque arm or torque limiter.
Worm reduction gears features
Principles
A worm gear is a kind of interlocking gear made up of a worm shaft and worm wheel. The worm can be shaped like a screw and the worm wheel is certainly a kind of gear machined to get a tooth profile with the same configuration.
The procedure of a worm gear is similar with that of a bolt and nut. The principle is equivalent to a nut that has been fixed so that it cannot rotate and therefore progresses in the axial path when the bolt is turned.
The look of a worm gear is thought of through the relationship between the rack and spur gear on the middle plane of the worm wheel.
Features
High reduction ratio One rotation of the worm rotates the worm wheel simply by one tooth. For this reason, in a 1 speed decrease gears, the wheel could be manufactured hence that it will be rotated 1/60 (1/120 in unique applications).
Orthogonal shaft The shafts are aligned orthogonally due to the structure. This characteristic makes it possible to layout the turning tranny direction at the right angle.
The arbitrariness of the rotation direction The screw direction of the worm could be clockwise or counterclockwise (generally clockwise). You’ll be able to modification the rotation direction of the worm wheel by changing the screw path.
A wide variety of shaft layouts The wide variety of shaft layouts is among the top features of interlocking gears.For instance, right shaft output, still left shaft output, dual shaft input and dual shaft output, etc., incorporate for a total of 14 types (Body 2) and, if attachment orientations are included, you’ll be able to pick from over 40 layouts.
Low noise, low vibration The interlocking of the worm and worm wheel is definitely characteristic because the contact is certainly linear and the relative slide is great. In comparison with rolling power transmission, sound and vibration are extremely low. Because of this, this technology is used to drive medical tools, elevators and escalators, etc.

Key points when choosing a worm reduction gears
Selection
When choosing a worm reduction gears, the procedures for selecting the right gear are described in the manufacturer catalogs and the series and models ought to be selected according to those procedures. Particular care should be taken in essential areas such as selecting the load index, calculating the overhang load and examining the heat rated capability from the manufacturer.
Cautions during use
When utilizing a worm reduction gears, the heat produced during the initial period of use is large and running-in procedure at 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 of rated torque for eight hour periods is key to sufficiently achieving the performance of the worm decrease gears.
Maintenance and inspection
After completing running-in operation (approximately 50 hours), it is necessary to improve the lubricating oil and to change the lubricating oil from then on about 1 time each year according to the procedure manual furnished by the manufacturer.

The worm reduction gears come in two series: X and H.
The series X, featuring a worm and worm wheel set, comes in versions XA with shaft and XF-XC with mounting provisions for motor.
Version XF (bell housing + coupling) provides great versatility to suit a broad range of applications and provides higher efficiency than the compact series XC, where the emphasis is on space performance.
Series H offers the same features because series X with an added plus: a spur gear pre-stage at the insight end provides higher functionality and a good broader range of ratios than the X series.
Frame sizes 110 and 90 feature a cast-iron housing cast enbloc, whereas smaller sizes use die-cast aluminium housings. The worm shaft is produced from casehardened and hardened alloy steel and ground-finished.
The worm wheel includes a cast iron hub with cast bronze insert. Hollow output shaft comes as standard.
Broad range of options available:
second input, output flange, single or double extension output shaft, torque limiter with through wire, torque arm.
