Solitary reduction worm gearing provides high ratio reduction with couple of moving parts in a close-coupled small drive. The right angle set up of driving-to-driven machine takes a minimum of space. Input and output shafts can be prolonged in either or both directions in horizontal or vertical arrangements adaptable to any installation requirement. Efficient motor speeds are reduced to sluggish speed requirements of several industrial machines in a single reduction.

The exclusive use of the involute Helicoid Thread form (with leaving side contact) on the worm and gear provides for high efficiencies, and lengthy service lifestyle. The hardened surface and polished alloy metal worm develops a even, work hardened surface on the bronze gear. Because of this worm gears wear in and improve with prolonged service while additional gears are deteriorating. EP offers a broad collection of model configurations, sizes, ratios, and components from our standard product line.
Fabricated Designs
If your application involves severe shock loads or possible housing damage from external sources (as in steel mills or mobile devices applications) EP can offer fabricated steel housings with up to a 48″ center distances. Fabricated housings provide optimum rigidity and strength that allows the transmission of higher horsepower amounts than are feasible with regular cast iron models. Extra heavy part plates connect the worm and equipment shaft bearing supports, assuring proper meshing of the apparatus under all load conditions. In smaller sized sizes, fabricated steel reducers are interchangeable with EP regular cast iron reducers.
Custom Designs
EP can provide custom acceleration and reversed engineered reducers for the application, be it a fresh project or a direct drop-in alternative to a competitor’s velocity reducer. Fabricated metal reducers allow EP to match a competitor’s footprint, centerline, and shaft height allowing a direct drop-in substitute saving the client time and money.
Long – Quiet Life
All worm gears in EP reducers are manufactured from phosphorous bronze. Our design also incorporates a hardened, surface and polished alloy metal worm. This combination develops a easy, work-hardened mating surface area of the bronze gear which enhances with prolonged service.
Worm gearing is a course of gear reducers that utilizes correct angle, nonintersecting shafts. This form of reducer provides even and quiet procedure and permits the probability of large swiftness reductions. These gears can be found from stock in a wide selection of ratios, from only 4:1 to as much as 3600:1. The small design and structure allows worm equipment reducers to be placed in a comparatively small space. Thus, very high reductions in a limited package size may be accomplished with this configuration. Our worm equipment features the continuous sliding tooth actions between worm and one’s teeth. This increases the tolerance for heavy loads and shock loads. Worm gear drives provide users high reducing convenience of relatively low cost in comparison with various other types of gearing.
The use of worm gearing extends across many industries including food, beverage and grain and has many applications. Some applications that use worm gearing are: conveyors, mixers and bucket elevators.

A worm gear reducer is one kind of reduction gear box which contains a worm pinion input, an output worm equipment, and features a right angle output orientation. This kind of reduction gear container is normally used to take a rated motor velocity and produce a low speed output with higher torque value based on the decrease ratio. They often times can resolve space-saving problems since the worm gear reducer is among the sleekest reduction gearboxes available due to the small diameter of its output gear.
worm gear reducerWorm equipment reducers are also a popular type of swiftness reducer because they offer the greatest speed reduction in the smallest package. With a high ratio of speed reduction and high torque output multiplier, it’s unsurprising that many power transmission systems utilize a worm gear reducer. Some of the most common applications for worm gears are available in tuning instruments, medical assessment equipment, elevators, security gates, and conveyor belts.
SW-1 and SW-5
Torque Transmission provides two sizes of worm equipment reducer, the SW-1 and the SW-5 and both are available in a variety of ratios. The SW-1 ratios include 3.5:1 to 60:1 and the SW-5 ratios include 5:1 to 100:1. Both of these options are produced with tough compression-molded glass-fill polyester housings for a durable, long lasting, light weight speed reducer that is also compact, non-corrosive, and nonmetallic.
Features
Our worm gear reducers offer a choice of a solid or hollow result shaft and show an adjustable mounting placement. Both SW-1 and the SW-5, however, can withstand shock loading much better than other decrease gearbox styles, making them ideal for demanding applications.

Worm Equipment Reducers also known as worm gearbox or worm acceleration reducers. Worm gear reducers are utilized for speed decrease and increasing the torque for electrical engine drives. You can choose to attach your NEMA motor to the reducer by using the NEMA C face flange or make use of a coupling. If you need a coupling for the output or input shaft observe our coupling section for selecting a coupling. You can expect four assemblies left hand and right hands and double output shaft and shaft input and shaft result. Interchangeable with the majority of worm gear manufactures. Observe data sheet in item overview for diamensions. If you don’t see your type, please Contact Us.

EP DDVM series triple-reduction worm gear speed reducers can be found in ratios from 5000:1 to 175,000:1 and center distances from 7” to 20” (larger sizes on request). Result torque ranges from 33,000 in lbs. for the 7” CD DDVM-70 to 582,900 in pounds for the DDVM-200. Mechanical HP input requirements are from 0.09 HP for the 175,000:1 7 in CD reducer to 6.25 HP for the 5000:1 20” CD unit. These reducers are available in four configurations: horizontal, vertical, shafted, and shaft installed.
These reducers are ideal for water/waste-water tools drive applications such as thickeners and clarifiers, which need a vertical straight down shaft. Other available configurations also make EP triple decrease reducers perfect for use on mixers, elevators, solar power panels, astronomical telescopes, indexing tables, hoists, conveyors, or various other process or materials handling systems where large torques/slower speeds are needed.

Description
The HDR Series worm gear reducers are used in low to moderate horsepower applications to lessen speeds and increase torque. Worm gear reducers can be found in direct or indirect drive, direct drive versions are 56C or 145TC flange install with either right, still left or dual output shafts or a hollow bore output. The indirect drive versions are shaft input-shaft output boxes for use with sprocket or pulley drive systems. They provide an effective low priced solution to speed decrease and improved torque, with higher tolerances for shock loading than helical equipment reducers.
In order to select a gearbox speed reducer, you will need to determine the required torque and service factor for the application form. Click on “Specifications” above for a table that will aid in identifying the service factor. For service elements above 1.0, multiply the mandatory torque by the provider factor.
