Ep Gear’s worm gears use proper-angle (90°) non-intersecting shafts to offer an effective remedy for power transmission apps demanding large reduction ratios in confined spaces. When properly applied, worm gears provide the smoothest and quietest sort of transmission. Given that the performance of a worm push relies upon on the lead angle and the variety of stars on the worm – considering that performance is usually the purpose, this ratio need to be kept as minimal as attainable. To function effectively, the worm and worm gear utilised with each other must have the exact same diameter, pitch and thread.
