Single reduction worm gearing provides high ratio reduction with couple of moving parts in a close-coupled small drive. The proper angle arrangement of driving-to-driven machine requires a the least space. Input and output shafts can be prolonged in either or both directions in horizontal or vertical arrangements adaptable to any mounting requirement. Efficient engine speeds are reduced to gradual speed requirements of several industrial worm gear reduer machines in a single reduction.

The exclusive use of the involute Helicoid Thread form (with departing side contact) on the worm and gear offers high efficiencies, and lengthy service life. The hardened ground and polished alloy metal worm develops a smooth, work hardened surface on the bronze gear. For this reason worm gears put on in and improve with extented service while other gears are deteriorating. Ever-Power offers a wide selection of model configurations, sizes, ratios, and components from our standard products.
Fabricated Designs
If your application involves severe shock loads or possible housing damage from external sources (as in steel mills or mobile gear applications) Ever-Power can provide fabricated steel housings with up to 48″ center distances. Fabricated housings provide maximum rigidity and strength that allows the transmission of higher horsepower levels than are feasible with regular cast iron models. Extra heavy part plates connect the worm and gear shaft bearing supports, assuring appropriate meshing of the apparatus under all load conditions. In smaller sizes, fabricated steel reducers are interchangeable with Ever-Power standard cast iron reducers.
Custom Designs
Ever-Power can offer custom swiftness and reversed engineered reducers for your application, be it a new project or a direct drop-in replacement for a competitor’s acceleration reducer. Fabricated metal reducers allow Ever-Power to match a competitor’s footprint, centerline, and shaft height allowing a direct drop-in replacement saving the customer time and money.
