Helical worm gearbox

Helical worm gear boxes are significant components of a number of machines. They assist in changing the direction of motion and in slowing down. These are composite gearboxes comprising worm and helical gears. The first has what looks like a screw for the worm gear, and teeth cut at an angle (helical) on the other. The two in conjunction provide for calm and quiet operation.  Wuma Helical Worm Gearboxes is a manufacturer of high quality helical worm gear reducer. They have a reputation for being incredibly hard wearing and high performing which is why they appeal to numerous industries.      

Select the right helical worm gearbox for you When it comes to picking out a helical worm gear drive that is best suited for your operations, it’s important to know what it is exactly that you need to get done. So first, consider the kind of strength you’ll need from your machine. Wuma Helical Bevel Gearboxes can tolerate different levels of power. Wuma supplies gearboxes of different capacity, and you can also find an ideal one in line with your machine. Next, consider the size. You need a gearbox of reasonable size, not too big or too small to fit in your available space. It’s also important to consider speed and torque. Speed is the rate at which the gearbox can turn, and torque is what it applies. Wuma Inline Helical Gearboxes offers information on specifications to assist you in choosing how these suit your needs.


How to Choose the Right Helical Worm Gearbox for Your Needs

Also, consider the environment in which the gear reducer will be operating. If it’s going to be in a wet or filthy area, opt for something with better insulation. Wuma gearboxes are designed for use under rough conditions. Last but not least make sure to check out the price and warranty. For those times when things to go wrong, it can be well worth the investment in protecting you against costly repairs. Keeping these aspects in mind will help you to select the right helical worm gearbox for your project.    

They also have the advantage of lower speed/higher torque. That’s useful for machines that must move heavy loads at a slow rate. For instance, in a conveyor system, you don’t want the belt to be moving too fast or using up all your energy. This cyclic movement of the compaction shock wave can be performed by Wuma gearboxes.
