Five Key Advantages of the EP-WPWEDK Double Speed Reducer<\/h2>\n
\n
\n
\ud83d\udd27<\/div>\n

Integrated Motor Flange Mount<\/h3>\n

The WPWEDK Double Speed Reducer housing incorporates a machined motor-flange face as a standard feature, allowing a matched IEC motor to bolt directly to the gearbox without an adaptor bracket. This eliminates shaft misalignment risk introduced by a separate motor plate and reduces the overall installed height of the drive assembly \u2014 a meaningful advantage in space-constrained machine bases and enclosed enclosure designs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\ud83d\udd73\ufe0f<\/div>\n

Hollow Through-Bore Output<\/h3>\n

The hollow output bore allows the driven shaft to pass directly through the gearbox, removing the need for any output coupling hardware. This design significantly shortens the drivetrain’s overall axial dimension compared to a solid-shaft unit fitted with a jaw or disc coupling, and eliminates one of the primary misalignment sources in high-ratio worm drive applications on slow-moving industrial machinery.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\ud83d\udcca<\/div>\n

Ratios to 1\/900 in a Single Unit<\/h3>\n

Two serially arranged worm meshes within one housing produce overall ratios between 1\/200 and 1\/900 \u2014 a range that would require either a very large single-stage gearbox or two separate units in tandem if achieved by conventional means. For machine builders targeting very low output speeds, the WPWEDK is the most space-efficient solution currently achievable within a worm gear reducer gearbox<\/strong> architecture.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\ud83d\udd12<\/div>\n

Inherent Self-Locking on Load<\/h3>\n

The worm thread geometry produces a naturally self-locking output \u2014 load on the output shaft cannot reverse-drive the worm \u2014 which is particularly valued on gate actuators, vertical lifts, and tension-hold applications where a power failure must not result in uncontrolled movement. This characteristic is built into the drive geometry, not a separately sourced add-on, and requires no additional holding-brake installation on most applications in this category.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\u2696\ufe0f<\/div>\n

18 kg to 450 kg \u2014 Full Scale Coverage<\/h3>\n

Nine frame sizes from 40-70 through 155-250 address every weight and torque tier within the double-stage class. A machine designer can specify a single product family across an entire product line range \u2014 from a small lab-scale stirrer up to a heavy aggregate mixer \u2014 and access consistent interface dimensions, documentation packages, and spare-part strategies from one source rather than managing multiple suppliers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Working Principle of the Double Worm Reduction Gearbox<\/h2>\n

Input power enters through a standard IEC motor flange bolted to the machined face of the WPWEDK Double Speed Reducer housing. The motor shaft engages the primary worm via a keyway connection on the input hole shaft (T\u00d7V dimension in the specification table). The primary worm meshes at 90\u00b0 with the primary phosphor-bronze worm wheel, converting the motor’s high-speed rotation into a first-stage reduced rotation on the intermediate shaft. The intermediate shaft carries the secondary worm, which in turn drives the secondary worm wheel \u2014 this wheel is keyed to the hollow output bore shaft, producing the final, highly reduced output speed.<\/p>\n

Because the overall ratio is the product of the two individual stage ratios, the WPWEDK Double Speed Reducer achieves gear reductions that would be physically impossible in a single worm-and-wheel pair of the same housing size. The arrangement is effectively a double reduction worm gearbox<\/strong> in the truest engineering sense: two mechanically independent reductions in series, sharing a common lubrication reservoir and a common ribbed grey cast iron housing that provides both structural rigidity and sufficient surface area for thermal dissipation in standard-duty cycles. The efficiency of the cascade \u2014 typically in the 45\u201365% range depending on ratio and load \u2014 means that for continuous high-power applications, thermal rating must be checked alongside mechanical torque rating before confirming the frame size.<\/p>\n

The hollow output bore of the double speed reducer<\/strong> is machined to H7 tolerance, ensuring a reliable interference or transition fit with standard shaft diameters. The output shaft bore W\u00d7Y dimension (bore diameter \u00d7 bore depth in mm, as listed in the parameter table) defines the maximum driven shaft size the unit can accept. Keyway dimensions on both input hole (Q, U, T\u00d7V) and output bore (S, W\u00d7Y) are standardised across the full WPWEDK Double Speed Reducer range, simplifying shaft and key selection at the design stage.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Double Speed Reducer Material Specification & Build Quality<\/h2>\n

The WPWEDK Double Speed Reducer housing is produced from high-grade grey cast iron, selected for its combination of good machinability, vibration damping, and dimensional stability under the cyclic thermal loading that continuous industrial operation imposes. Heavier frame sizes \u2014 particularly 135-200 and 155-250 \u2014 can be specified in ductile iron or cast steel where elevated shock resistance or higher ambient temperatures create conditions that push the thermal and mechanical margins of standard grey iron. Cast aluminium housings are also available for the lighter frame sizes in applications where overall drive weight is a constraint, such as overhead-mounted agitator drives in the food sector.<\/p>\n

Both worm shafts are forged and machined from 20CrMnTi or equivalent alloy case-hardening steel, carburised to a case depth of 0.8\u20131.2 mm and hardened to 58\u201362 HRC at the worm thread flanks. Thread grinding after heat treatment brings the helical flank to DIN 3975 accuracy, which directly governs contact stress distribution and noise level in service. Worm wheels are centrifugally cast in a high-tin phosphor bronze alloy (typically ZCuSn10P1 equivalent), hobbed to mesh geometry, and interference-fitted on the shaft with a parallel key. This steel-on-bronze pairing is standard across worm gear reducer manufacturers<\/strong> internationally and has a well-documented combination of controlled run-in behaviour and consistent long-term friction coefficient.<\/p>\n

The hollow output bore is finished to H7 tolerance and the bore keyway to JS9, consistent with ISO 286 fits guidance for light press or sliding fits with standard commercial shafting. Deep-groove ball bearings are used at the primary worm shaft, and tapered or angular-contact roller bearings at the intermediate and output positions to handle the combined radial and axial loading imposed when the driven shaft transmits both torque and bending load through the bore. The external paint system \u2014 primer plus topcoat \u2014 is available in standard green, and in white or blue variants for facilities where drive-system colour coding supports maintenance or safety programmes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Double Speed Reducer Application Scenarios<\/h2>\n

The WPWEDK double speed reducer<\/strong> is particularly well suited to applications where the machine layout benefits from the motor bolted directly to the gearbox face and the driven shaft passing through the output bore \u2014 a configuration that eliminates two coupling elements and reduces the number of structural alignment checks during installation and maintenance. The following represent the highest-volume applications across our global customer base.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

\ud83c\udf00 Paddle & Ribbon Mixers<\/h3>\n

Bulk powder mixers, ribbon blenders, and paddle dryers used in the pharmaceutical, food processing, and chemical sectors mount the WPWEDK directly on the mixer frame with the motor bolted to the gearbox flange face. The high-ratio output provides the very low agitator shaft RPM these processes require \u2014 typically 3\u201320 RPM \u2014 while the hollow bore accepts the mixer shaft without an outboard coupling that would complicate the sealed-shaft sealing arrangements common in hygienic or hazardous-atmosphere versions used across the Netherlands and UK.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\ud83c\udfd7\ufe0f Crane & Hoist Auxiliary Drives<\/h3>\n

Slow-speed slewing auxiliary drives, cable drum traverses, and maintenance-access platforms on overhead cranes in Australian ports and Brazilian steelworks use the WPWEDK’s self-locking characteristic to hold position under load when not powered. The heavy duty worm drive gearbox<\/strong> in the 120-175 and 135-200 frame sizes handles the sustained radial loading these applications impose without bearing fatigue over the typical 15-year operational lifespan expected for crane auxiliary systems.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\ud83c\udf3e Forage & Feed Processing<\/h3>\n

Silage turners, fodder mix augers, and pelleting press infeed conveyors on dairy and livestock farms in Canada and Australia operate under intermittent shock loading from material bridging and compaction events. The WPWEDK’s thick-section cast housing and oversized bearing seats handle these transient overloads reliably across seasonal operational cycles, and the integrated motor flange simplifies gearbox replacement during harvest-season maintenance windows when downtime must be minimised.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u2699\ufe0f Slow-Speed Conveyor Tail Drives<\/h3>\n

Flight conveyors, en-masse conveyors, and underground drag-chain conveyors in the mining and aggregate sector rely on the WPWEDK’s high torque worm gearbox<\/strong> output at very low shaft speed to ensure controlled product movement without slipping or piling. The hollow bore conveniently accepts the conveyor tail shaft, and the gearbox can be mounted on the tail-drum frame without needing a separate motor-support structure on either side of the conveyor in South Korean and Colombian mineral processing operations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\ud83d\udeb0 Pump & Valve Actuators<\/h3>\n

Slow-speed pump drives for viscous media \u2014 molasses, adhesive slurries, bitumen \u2014 and multi-turn valve actuator mechanisms in refineries and water treatment plants use smaller WPWEDK Double Speed Reducer frames (40-70 through 80-135) where the double output worm gearbox<\/strong> provides a precise, stable output speed that open-loop process controllers can rely on without encoder feedback. The self-locking output holds valve position reliably during power interruptions, which is a critical functional requirement on safety-rated shutoff valve installations across the UK and Netherlands.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n
\nQ1 \u2014 What is the advantage of an integrated motor flange on a double speed reducer compared to a separate motor bracket for a mixer drive application in a UK food processing plant?<\/summary>\n
\n

An integrated motor flange machined directly into the gearbox housing maintains motor-shaft-to-worm concentricity to within the housing’s own bore tolerances, typically better than 0.05 mm TIR. A separate bracket introduces additional stack-up tolerances at each bolted joint \u2014 bracket-to-gearbox, motor-to-bracket \u2014 which can result in radial loads on the primary worm bearing from misalignment. In food-grade applications in the UK, where IP65 or higher-rated motor enclosures must mate cleanly to the gearbox, the integrated flange also simplifies the sealed-joint engineering at the motor-gearbox interface by reducing the number of separate sealing surfaces.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n

\nQ2 \u2014 How do I determine the right WPWEDK Double Speed Reducer frame size for a ribbon blender running at 5 RPM output in a Netherlands pharmaceutical mixing facility?<\/summary>\n
\n

Start with the motor speed \u2014 a standard 4-pole 50 Hz motor runs at approximately 1440 RPM \u2014 and divide by the target output speed to get the required ratio: 1440 \u00f7 5 = 288, so a 1\/300 ratio WPWEDK Double Speed Reducer is the closest standard option. Next, calculate the output torque your blender shaft requires at 5 RPM and verify that the selected frame size’s rated output torque exceeds this by at least your service factor (1.25 for smooth uniform load, 1.5 for variable or reversing duty in pharmaceutical batch blending). Finally, confirm that the output bore W\u00d7Y dimension accommodates your blender shaft diameter with the keyway engagement length sufficient for the transmitted torque.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n

\nQ3 \u2014 Which shaft direction configuration of the EP-WPWEDK Double Speed Reducer is best suited for an overhead paddle mixer mounted on a processing tank in an Australian dairy plant?<\/summary>\n
\n

Configuration A \u2014 with the hollow output bore pointing downward and the motor flange face on top \u2014 is the standard arrangement for overhead-mounted vertical agitator drives. This places the motor’s weight directly above the gearbox centre of gravity, keeps the motor away from process splashes and steam, and presents the hollow bore vertically downward to accept the agitator shaft with the simplest possible keyway engagement. In Australian dairy applications where CIP (clean-in-place) wash-down is routine, the vertical motor-top mounting also keeps motor ventilation slots away from the high-pressure water spray directed at the gearbox underside.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n

\nQ4 \u2014 When is a double worm reduction gearbox the better choice over a helical-bevel gearbox for a slow-speed conveyor drive in a Colombian aggregate processing facility?<\/summary>\n
\n

The double worm reduction gearbox<\/strong> wins on total purchase cost, ratio range, and inherent self-locking at very high reduction ratios \u2014 typically above 1\/100. A helical-bevel unit of equivalent ratio and torque capacity is a more complex multi-stage design with higher efficiency (typically 85\u201395%) but significantly higher unit cost, larger footprint in two of three axes, and no inherent self-locking, meaning a separate brake must be specified for inclined conveyors. In Colombian aggregate processing, where equipment total-cost-of-ownership is weighted heavily against performance overkill, the WPWEDK Double Speed Reducer’s combination of adequate torque capacity, self-locking output, competitive pricing, and simple maintenance profile makes it the practical choice for conveyor tail drives running below 5 RPM output.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n

\nQ5 \u2014 What lubrication type and change interval should be specified for a WPWEDK double speed reducer operating in a South Korean packaging line running two shifts at elevated ambient temperature?<\/summary>\n

For a two-shift duty cycle with ambient temperatures in the 35\u201345 \u00b0C range typical of un-air-conditioned South Korean packaging facilities in summer, a synthetic polyalphaolefin (PAO) ISO VG 220 gear oil is recommended over mineral oil. Synthetic oil maintains its viscosity index at elevated operating temperatures, reducing internal friction and lowering the gearbox running temperature by 8\u201312 \u00b0C compared to mineral oil of the same viscosity grade \u2014 which directly extends bearing and seal life. Change interval with synthetic oil is typically 6,000\u20138,000 hours versus 3,000\u20134,000 hours for mineral oil under the same operating conditions. Lip seal inspection at each oil change remains the single highest-return maintenance activity regardless of oil type.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n

\nQ6 \u2014 Where should procurement teams in Brazil source a certified replacement double speed worm gear reducer for an existing agitator drive with full dimensional drawings and material documentation?<\/summary>\n
\n

The most reliable approach for sourcing a replacement double speed worm gear reducer<\/strong> in Brazil is to contact an ISO 9001:2015 certified manufacturing facility directly, providing the original unit’s nameplate data \u2014 frame size, ratio, input power, shaft direction, and key dimensions \u2014 along with photographs of the mounting arrangement and output bore connection. A certified manufacturer will confirm dimensional compatibility against their production drawings, issue a formal dimensional confirmation document, and provide the material certificates and inspection records required under Brazilian supplier qualification procedures for plant equipment in the chemical, food, and mining sectors. Always request a factory test record showing no-load running before dispatch on any replacement unit intended for critical-path process equipment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The EP-WPWEDK is a double worm gear reducer with a distinguishing feature shared by very few units in this class: an integrated motor flange face machined directly onto the housing, combined with a hollow output bore that accepts the driven shaft without a separate coupling. This twin advantage \u2014 direct motor mounting and through-shaft output \u2014 makes the WPWEDK the most installation-friendly unit in the WPWED double-speed family. Input power ratings span 0.12 kW at the compact 40-70 frame through to 5.5 kW at the large 155-250 frame, with the weight range covering 18 kg at the lightest up to 450 kg at the heaviest, giving procurement engineers a single product family that scales from light automation through to continuous heavy-process drives.<\/p>\n

The cascaded dual-stage worm mesh produces overall worm gear reduction ratios between 1\/200 and 1\/900 from a standard AC motor input speed, without any need for external intermediate components. Three shaft direction options \u2014 A, B, and C \u2014 cover single hollow-bore output and opposing dual-bore arrangements, accommodating a wide variety of machine geometries. The WPWEDK is a natural fit wherever a machine designer wants to mount the motor directly to the gearbox face (eliminating a separate motor bracket and coupling), pass a driven shaft through the output bore, and achieve the very high reduction ratios that only a double worm gear drive can provide in a comparable envelope.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":814,"template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[33],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-813","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-double-speed-reducer","first","instock","shipping-taxable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/superiortransmissioninc.com\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/813","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/superiortransmissioninc.com\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/superiortransmissioninc.com\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/superiortransmissioninc.com\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/814"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/superiortransmissioninc.com\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=813"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/superiortransmissioninc.com\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=813"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/superiortransmissioninc.com\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=813"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/superiortransmissioninc.com\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=813"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
