Micro Worm Gear Set – The Precision Solution for Various Industries

Our micro worm gear sets, composed of a worm and worm wheel, are essential for a variety of industries, including but not limited to aerospace and military instrumentation, medical and dental equipment, oil and gas exploration, robotics, and industrial controls. With precision manufacturing that meets the latest AGMA/ISO specifications, our worm gear sets can provide the perfect solution for any application.

What is a worm gear set?

A worm gear set is composed of a worm screw and a worm wheel. The worm is responsible for transmitting motion and power to the worm wheel, which in turn controls the output shaft. The worm and worm wheel are typically at a right angle to each other, which makes the worm gear set an excellent choice for compact spaces where high gear ratios are required.

What are the advantages of using a micro worm gear set?

Micro worm gear sets offer precision and reliability in a compact design. Due to their gear ratio, they can provide increased torque while reducing rotational speed, making them perfect for applications where power transmission is necessary. They are also lightweight and can be customized to meet specific requirements.

What materials can be used for micro worm gear sets?

Our standard micro worm gear sets have a worm made of hardened steel and a worm wheel made of VL22, a copper-zinc alloy with aluminum, silicon, and manganese additives. This alloy is designed for sliding purposes and is known for its high chemical resistance. However, we offer custom worm gear sets made of various materials to meet specific needs.

How do you install and maintain micro worm gear sets?

To install a micro worm gear set, ensure that it is aligned properly with the input shaft and output shaft. It is important to lubricate the gear set regularly to ensure smooth operation and prevent wear and tear. Additionally, any maintenance work on the gear set should be performed by trained professionals to prevent damage.

What are some common applications of micro worm gear sets?

Micro worm gear sets are commonly used in automatic door systems to move in one direction and block the system at the end of the operation. They are also found in musical instruments, such as guitars and violins, for adjusting the tension of the strings. Furthermore, they are used in mechanical parts manufacturing, automobile steering systems, speed reducers, and worm reducers.
