Because the performance of a worm gear drive depends upon the business lead angle and amount of begins on the worm – and because increased effectiveness 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.

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

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 acceleration reducers in low- to moderate-swiftness applications. And, because their reduction ratio is founded on the amount of gear teeth by itself, they are smaller sized than other styles of gears. Like fine-pitch business lead screws, worm gears are typically self-locking, making them ideal for hoisting and lifting applications.
