Worm gears transfer large forces, for example on roller drives or steering shafts. We manufacture single-start or multi-start worm gears with metric dimensions or based on imperial diametrical pitch (inches), with profiles from module one to module ten. Larger modules are also available on request. You will receive the item you ordered either as a finished profile or as a pre-whirled profile for later grinding.
Worm gears at work
Worm gears are needed whenever two axles cross at an angle of less than 90°. They are used to transfer the rotary motion from the axle to the worm wheel. It is important that the cogs of both components interlock without slippage. Worm gears run silently and are capable of transferring a large torque. Screw rolling gears and worm gears are mainly used in:
Presses as power gears
Roller drives
Steering systems in conveyor technology
Mining machinery
As duplex worm gears in milling heads and rotary tables.
