Mechanical drives take supplied torque and may increase or reduce that torque predicated on application. Also velocity is increased or decreased compared index G – GEAR BOXES – on blue – smallto the speed decrease ratio. Ever-Power includes a full type of gearboxes and swiftness reducers, and the elements needed to build them, in an array of regular ratios and shaft choices in addition to custom designs.
Helical, bevel, and miter equipment boxes offer the options of swiftness reducers or speed increasers, and may be powered in either path. All Ever-Power worm equipment speed reducers and right angle drives are manufactured for high performance in a large spectrum of applications. Typically worm gear boxes are not used as quickness increasers. The cases 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 hand or left hands worm gears. The result shafts could be solid or hollow, and load capability is unaffected by direction and rotation.
Worm gear velocity reducers are made up of a screw (the worm) that drives a wheel (helical gear) or single enveloping wheel and are found in mechanical applications which range from conveyors to exercise devices to robots.
Geneva mechanisms and assemblies are typically used to transform continuous rotary motion into intermittent rotary movement. The rotating drive wheel has a pin that gets to right into a slot of the driven wheel advancing it by one stage and a blocking disc that locks the driven wheel in position between steps.
Compact design
Compact design is one of the key terms of the standard 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 because of the very smooth operating of the worm equipment combined with the use of cast iron and high precision on element manufacturing and assembly. Regarding the our precision gearboxes, we take extra care of any sound which can be interpreted as a murmur from the apparatus. Therefore the general noise level of our gearbox is reduced to a complete minimum.
Angle gearboxes
On the worm gearbox the input shaft and output shaft are perpendicular to one another. This often proves to become a decisive advantage producing the incorporation of the gearbox considerably simpler and smaller sized.The worm gearbox is an angle gear. This is 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 ideal for direct suspension for wheels, movable arms and other parts rather than having to build 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 security. Also spindle gearboxes with a trapezoidal spindle are self-locking, making them ideal for an array of solutions.
Structural Features
The worm-gear reducer is made up of three main parts: housing, worm-gear and wheel.
The carcasses are made from GG-25 cast-iron, and so are available for all kinds of gear-reducer. This make sure they are perform effectively under stressed circumstances, vibrations or any kind 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 manufactured from DIN (GZ-CuSn 12 Ni2) centricast bronze, melted on steel. Because of the mechanical work of these two parts having top quality, excellent performance and low sound levels have been achived.
The output shaft is hollow, although 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 on the market.
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 provides like reference size 63 and exists like answer to the demand of our costumers since, upon mounting greater bearings in the output, bears better axial loads that its analogous one in the MF-62 series. The others of technical feature are identical to the its analogous in the size 62.
Assembly Position
In order to setup a gear reducer and to make it work efficiently, the following instructions must be considered:
It should be fixed on a flat surface to avoid either vibrations or 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 needed to be painted, the essential oil seals should be covered to avoid them from drying and losing their seal.
The machine work of the fittings setup in the output shafts require an ISO H7 or h6 margin for the hollow shaft.
Backdriving
It is wise to focus on this element when the apparatus reducer result shaft is driven rather than being a driver. Considering that one of the top features of this worm-gear reducer is the fact that can’t be axle-powered by the result shaft (irreversibility), it really is almost extremely hard to meet up total irreversibility conditions, due to external elements such as for example vibrations, etc. For this reason, when the application form requires total irreversibility, it is advisable to make use of exterior brakes with enough power to avoid slipping.
It may be said that the conditions under which irreversibility can occur are the following:
• Efficiency < 0,55 (find table of specialized features).
Maintenance
This type of gear reducer will get a permanent lubrication, so that it does not need any kind of maintenance.
Lubrication
The lubrication of this 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 quality level CLP DIN 51517-3, FGZ level 12, AP GL-4, US 224, AGMA 250-04; for that reason its maintenance is not needed.

High reduction gear
Worm and wheel gear pairings provide large quickness decrease ratios with only one gear pairing in a more compact space when compared with other styles of gears. You can expect up to a maximum ratio of 100:1 with our products. Another benefit of the Worm and Wheel gear pairings may be the low level noise they produce. Some drawbacks will be the general low performance and the fact that they generate high temperature.

Benefit of EP’s Worm Gears – “Frosty rolled Worm Gears”
1) The hardness of the helicoid surface area has been achieved by function hardening when the chilly rolling was performed, providing Worm gears with better mechanical properties than machined worms because of truth that the metallic fibrous structure has not been cut.

2) The top hardness after chilly rolling is increased by 1.2 to 1 1.3 times in comparison to the hardness of the original material, and the hardness of the helicoid surface increases to around HB240 to 260.

3) Cold rolled worms are ideal for miniature equipment applications since this can be rotated smoothly without damaging the worm wheels crafted from POM or various other soft materials.

4) Due to the implementation of the cold rolling method, the helicoid surface area of EP-Worm (M0.5 to 2.0) comes away with a mirror like finish. Thus, EP-Precision Cold Rolled Worms provide a smooth procedure and long term durability.

Worm gears are constructed of a worm and a equipment (sometimes referred to as a worm wheel), with nonparallel, nonintersecting shafts oriented 90 degrees to one another. The worm is certainly analogous to a screw with a V-type thread, and the apparatus is analogous to a spur equipment. The worm is normally the generating component, with the worm’s thread advancing one’s teeth of the gear.

Such as a ball screw, the worm in a worm gear may have an individual start or multiple starts – meaning that there are multiple threads, or helicies, on the worm. For a single-start worm, each full convert (360 degrees) of the worm increases the equipment by one tooth. So a gear with 24 teeth will provide a gear reduction of 24:1. For a multi-begin worm, the gear reduction equals the number of teeth on the apparatus, divided by the number of begins on the worm. (That is not the same as most other types of gears, where the gear reduction is usually a function of the diameters of the two components.)
The meshing of the worm and the apparatus is an assortment of sliding and rolling actions, but sliding contact dominates at high reduction ratios. This sliding actions causes friction and temperature, which limits the efficiency of worm gears to 30 to 50 percent. In order to minimize friction (and for that reason, heat), the worm and gear are made from dissimilar metals – for instance, the worm may be made of hardened steel and the apparatus made of bronze or aluminum.

Although the sliding contact decreases efficiency, it provides extremely quiet operation. (The utilization of dissimilar metals for the worm and equipment also contributes to quiet operation.) This makes worm gears suitable for use where sound should be minimized, such as in elevators. In addition, the usage of a softer materials for the gear implies that it could absorb shock loads, like those experienced in large equipment or crushing devices.

The primary advantage of worm gears is their capability to provide high reduction ratios and correspondingly high torque multiplication. They can also be used as quickness reducers in low- to moderate-swiftness applications. And, because their reduction ratio is based on the amount of gear teeth by itself, they are more compact than other styles of gears. Like fine-pitch business lead screws, worm gears are typically self-locking, making them perfect for hoisting and lifting applications.

Worms & Worm Gears
EP Gear’s worms and worm gears provide a highly effective answer for power tranny applications requiring high-ratio acceleration reduction in a restricted space using right angle (90°), non-intersecting shafts. When properly applied, worms and worm gears provide the smoothest, quietest form of gearing.

Because the efficiency of a worm equipment drive depends upon the business lead angle and quantity of begins on the worm – and because increased efficiency is always a goal, the ratio ought to be kept as low as possible. To run correctly, worms and worm gears utilized together must have the same diametral pitch and threads.
