Worm Gear Reducers

Worm gear reducers from Feida Machinery factory are mechanical devices that use the rotation of worms to drive the worm wheels, achieving a high requction ratio(5:1 to 100:1 in a single stage).

In additon to large reduction ratios,compact design,and low noise, These reducers also have another distinct advantage of self-locking function occurring when the worm’s lead angle less than friction angle to prevent back-driving.

Core components

1.Worms(input):Hecial threaded shafts(typically hardened steel,HRC45-50).
2.Worm wheels(output):Bronze/iron gears with matching tooth profiles(e.g., ZCuSn10P1 bronze).
3.Housings:Cast iron/aluminum for structural suppout and sealing.

Main materails

Worm wheels:wearable stannum bronze alloy
Worms:20Cr. carburizing and quenching makes the hardness of gear surface up to 56-62HRC.
Housings:die-cast aluminum alloy;cast iron

Application

Worm gear reducers remain indispensable for high-ratio,compact,and self-locking applications despite efficiency limitations.The typical applications include conveyor systems,automotive steering systems,lifting and hoisting equipment,material handling equipment,packaging machinery,mining and construction equipment,agricultural machinery,robotics and automation,solar tracking systems,marine and boating,etc.
