Mechanical drives take supplied torque and could increase or reduce that torque predicated on application. Also swiftness is increased or decreased compared index G – Equipment BOXES – on blue – smallto the speed decrease ratio. Ever-Power has a full line of gearboxes and swiftness reducers, and the parts had a need to build them, in a wide variety of regular ratios and shaft choices as well as custom designs.
Helical, bevel, and miter gear boxes provide options of acceleration reducers or quickness increasers, and could be powered in either path. All Ever-Power worm gear speed reducers and correct angle drives are produced for high performance in a large spectrum of applications. Typically worm equipment boxes are not used as rate increasers. The situations are molded glass-filled material making them extremely tough and resistant to corrosive environments. They can be found in a wide selection of ratios and are built with right hands or left hands worm gears. The result shafts could be solid or hollow, and load capacity is unaffected by path and rotation.
Worm gear speed reducers are comprised 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 reaches into a slot of the powered wheel advancing it by one step and a blocking disc that locks the driven wheel constantly in place between steps.
Compact design
Compact design is one of the key words of the typical gearboxes of the BJ-Series. Further optimisation may be accomplished through the use of adapted gearboxes or particular gearboxes.
Low noise
Our worm gearboxes and actuators are really quiet. This is because of the very smooth working of the worm gear combined with the use of cast iron and high precision on element manufacturing and assembly. Regarding the our precision gearboxes, we consider extra treatment of any sound which can be interpreted as a murmur from the gear. Therefore the general noise level of our gearbox is reduced to an absolute minimum.
Angle gearboxes
On the worm gearbox the input shaft and output shaft are perpendicular to one another. This often proves to be a decisive advantage producing the incorporation of the gearbox considerably simpler and more compact.The worm gearbox can be an angle gear. This is an edge for incorporation into constructions.
Strong bearings in solid housing
The output shaft of the BJ worm gearbox is very firmly embedded in the gear house and is well suited for immediate suspension for wheels, movable arms and other areas rather than needing to create a separate suspension.
Self locking
For larger equipment ratios,EP-Gear’s worm gearboxes will provide a self-locking effect, 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 a wide variety of solutions.
Structural Features
The worm-gear reducer comprises of three main parts: housing, worm-gear and wheel.
The carcasses are made from GG-25 cast-iron, and so are available for all sorts of gear-reducer. This make sure they are perform effectively under stressed conditions, vibrations or any kind of setback that can’t be avoided through the assembly
The worm-gear is constructed 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. Due to the mechanical work of the two parts having high quality, excellent overall performance and low sound amounts have been achived.
The output shaft is hollow, although it is possible to adapt a solid shaft.
The oil seals made of NITRILE BUTADIENE, according to DIN 3760, high quality bearings, an EPOXY- impregnated finish ( 2 components), and grey-coloured SINGLE LAYER ENAMEL finish ( 2 components) ( RAL 7672), provide the most competitive gear reducer available.
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 has like reference size 63 and exists like response to the demand of our costumers since, upon mounting greater bearings in the output, bears greater axial loads that its analogous one in the MF-62 series. The rest of technical feature are similar to the its analogous in the size 62.
Assembly Position
In order to create a gear reducer and to make it work efficiently, the following instructions must be considered:
It must be fixed on a flat surface to avoid either vibrations or tensions.
If undistributed loads or continued start-ups are foreseen, it is suggested to insert compensating couplings, connectors, torque limiters etc…
If the gear reducer had to be painted, the oil seals should be covered to prevent them from drying and losing their seal.
The device work of the fittings create in the output shafts need an ISO H7 or h6 margin for the hollow shaft.
Backdriving
It is smart to pay attention to this aspect when the gear reducer result shaft is driven instead of being a driver. Bearing in mind that one of the top features of this worm-gear reducer may be the fact that cannot be axle-powered by the result shaft (irreversibility), it really is almost extremely hard to meet total irreversibility conditions, due to external elements such as for example vibrations, etc. That is why, when the application requires total irreversibility, it really is advisable to utilize external brakes with enough capacity to avoid slipping.
It may be said that the circumstances under which irreversibility can occur are as follows:
• Efficiency < 0,55 (discover table of specialized features).
Maintenance
This type of gear reducer will get a permanent lubrication, so it does not need any kind of maintenance.
Lubrication
The lubrication of the 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 isn’t needed.

High reduction gear
Worm and wheel gear pairings provide large speed decrease ratios with only one gear pairing in a far more compact space when compared with other types of gears. You can expect up to maximum ratio of 100:1 with our products. Another benefit of the Worm and Wheel gear pairings is the low level sound they produce. Some drawbacks are the general low effectiveness and the actual fact that they generate temperature.

Advantage of EP’s Worm Gears – “Chilly 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 framework is not cut.

2) The top hardness after frosty rolling is increased by 1.2 to at least one 1.3 times when compared with the hardness of the original materials, and the hardness of the helicoid surface area increases to around HB240 to 260.

3) Frosty rolled worms are suitable for miniature equipment applications since this is often rotated smoothly without damaging the worm wheels crafted from POM or other soft materials.

4) Because of the implementation of the cold rolling method, the helicoid surface of EP-Worm (M0.5 to 2.0) comes out with a mirror like complete. Thus, EP-Precision Cool Rolled Worms give a smooth procedure and long-term durability.

Worm gears are constructed of a worm and a equipment (sometimes known as a worm wheel), with nonparallel, non-intersecting shafts oriented 90 degrees to each other. The worm can be analogous to a screw with a V-type thread, and the apparatus can be analogous to a spur gear. The worm is normally the traveling component, with the worm’s thread advancing the teeth of the gear.

Like a ball screw, the worm in a worm gear might have an individual start or multiple starts – and therefore there are multiple threads, or helicies, on the worm. For a single-start worm, each complete switch (360 degrees) of the worm increases the gear by one tooth. Therefore a gear with 24 teeth provides a gear reduction of 24:1. For a multi-start worm, the apparatus reduction equals the number of teeth on the gear, divided by the amount of starts on the worm. (That is different from almost every other types of gears, where in fact the gear reduction can be a function of the diameters of both 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 warmth, which limits the performance of worm gears to 30 to 50 percent. In order to minimize friction (and therefore, heat), the worm and gear are constructed with dissimilar metals – for instance, the worm may be made of hardened steel and the apparatus made of bronze or aluminum.

Although the sliding contact reduces efficiency, it provides very quiet operation. (The usage of dissimilar metals for the worm and gear also contributes to quiet procedure.) This makes worm gears suitable for use where noise should be minimized, such as for example in elevators. Furthermore, the use of a softer materials for the gear implies that it could absorb shock loads, like those skilled in heavy equipment or crushing devices.

The primary advantage of worm gears is their capability to provide high reduction ratios and correspondingly high torque multiplication. They may also be utilized as swiftness reducers in low- to medium-quickness applications. And, because their reduction ratio is based on the number of gear teeth by itself, they are more compact than other types of gears. Like fine-pitch business lead screws, worm gears are typically self-locking, which makes them well suited for hoisting and lifting applications.

Worms & Worm Gears
EP Gear’s worms and worm gears provide a highly effective answer for power transmitting applications requiring high-ratio rate reduction in a limited space using right angle (90°), nonintersecting shafts. When properly used, worms and worm gears supply the smoothest, quietest kind of gearing.

Because the effectiveness of a worm equipment drive depends on the lead angle and amount of begins on the worm – and because increased efficiency is always a goal, the ratio ought to be kept only possible. To run properly, worms and worm gears utilized together will need to have the same diametral pitch and threads.
