HEDCON Worm Gear (Reducer)
High-efficiency, high-strength double-enveloping worm reducer
Overview
- The low friction coefficient of the gear contact for high efficiency.
- Cr-Mo carburizing steel material is used for the worm, and special phosphor-bronze casting is used for the wheel, which realizes a long life.
- Small rotation unevenness with low noise and low vibration.
- Lightweight and compact for its high load capacity.

Features
Large load capacity
The hourglass worm gear allows the entire tooth surface on the worm to engage effectively. In addition, teeth engage at a large area of the wheel tooth surface, resulting in greater load capacity.
High efficiency
The angle between the line of contact and the sliding direction is large.
As such, a lubricant film is easily formed on the tooth surface, resulting in a small friction coefficient on the gearing and realizing high efficiency.
Long life
The wheel is manufactured of high-quality Cr-Mo carburized steel material and special phosphor-bronze casting to provide high wear and seizure resistance, resulting in a long product life.
Low noise/small rotation unevenness
With a large number of teeth engaging, as well as a precise tooth profile, quiet operation is achieved while attaining small rotation unevenness.
Compact and lightweight
Large rate value realizes compact for its high load capacity.
