Hydromec Worm Gearboxes
Worm gear units are the most commonly found speed reducers that appear in the industry today. They represent a cost-effective, high-performance solution for simple applications that require relatively low torque. To ensure interchangeability with other manufactures we stock both the round and square aluminium base units in Stockport.
The modular design of these gearboxes allows for flanges, feet, torque arms, single and double output shafts to be easily added allowing us to individually configure a gearbox that will suit your drive requirements.
Highlights of Hydromecs worm gearunits are :-
– Single-piece cast iron housing – is vacuum impregnated (MIL-STD 276). No secondary finish required but readily accepts paint. Combines lightweight with high tensile strength.
– Single piece alloy steel input shaft and worm shaft – High helix angleworm is case-hardened (RC 58-60), ground teeth, teeth are profiled and radiused for noise reduction and enhanced efficiency.
– Oversized Bearings – Bearings are positively retained, ideal for frequent starting and reversing applications.
