maximum rigidity of Torkdrive Helical Worm Geared Motors

Torkdrive Helical Worm Geared Motors provide maximum rigidity and strength which allows the transmission of higher horsepower levels than are possible with standard cast iron units. Extra heavy side plates connect the worm and gear shaft bearing supports, assuring proper meshing of the gear under all load conditions. In smaller sizes, fabricated steel reducers are interchangeable with standard cast iron reducers. If your application involves severe shock loads or possible housing damage from external sources (as in steel mills or mobile equipment applications) helical worm gearbox can provide fabricated steel housings with up to a 48" center distances.
