Ep Gear’s worm gears use proper-angle (90°) non-intersecting shafts to supply an productive remedy for electrical power transmission purposes requiring large reduction ratios in confined areas. When appropriately applied, worm gears supply the smoothest and quietest form of transmission. Because the effectiveness of a worm drive relies upon on the direct angle and the number of stars on the worm – given that performance is always the objective, this ratio must be retained as lower as achievable. To operate properly, the worm and worm equipment employed jointly have to have the identical diameter, pitch and thread.
