Worm Gear Reducers

Worm Gear Reducers

Worm gear reducers are right angle speed reducers used in applications involving low horsepower. Worm gear reducers maintain high gear ratios, high shock tolerance, and compact design.

Worm gear speed reducers are utilized by a wide variety of industries, such as the materials handling, automotive, aerospace, recreational, construction, food and beverage processing, oil and gas, and textile industries. Worm gear speed reducers are used in many applications, including automation equipment, conveyors, compressors, printing presses, pumps, compressors, generators, and robotics applications. Worm gear reducers are also commonly used for packaging and special machinery.

Remanufactured worm gear reducers are commonly sold by manufacturers. While these often come at greatly reduced costs, they often lack a warranty. When selecting a worm gear reducer, consider the gear ratio, efficiency requirements, mechanical rating, and thermal rating.
