Design enhancements improve efficiency and eliminate leaks. Worm-gear speed reducers have offered a rugged, adaptable, and cost-effective method of power transmission for nearly a century. But their ...

However, not all innovations are equal and nor do they follow a constant upward trend. Instead, their evolution takes the form of an S-shaped curve that reflects their typical lifecycle from early ...

Worm gears are a power transmission standard, driving millions of axes requiring more drastic speed reductions. In this type of gearing a longer, more cylindrical worm (which resembles a screw) ...

Erwin Junker Maschinenfabrik – a developer of high-speed grinding technologies – last year earned recognition from Germany’s Baden-Württemberg Ministry of the Environment for its JUMAT grinding ...

Nexteer Automotive Group has patented a method for making a worm gear with individual lugs for uniform material flow. The patent also covers an electric power steering system with a unique worm gear ...
