6 Common Misconceptions About Worm Gear Backlash
Product developers often reject worm gear designs due to backlash concerns, missing cost-effective precision solutions. We help engineers optimize worm gear specifications to balance precision with manufacturing cost. Six common misconceptions include: backlash indicates poor quality, zero backlash is always better, worm gears are inherently problematic, center distance adjustment controls backlash best, backlash limits accuracy, […]
8 Essential Materials & Coatings to Reduce Worm Gear Wear
In precision engineering, worm gear performance hinges on material selection. With manufacturing costs rising and efficiency demands increasing, choosing the right materials and coatings can significantly extend gear life and reduce maintenance frequency. The essential materials for optimal worm gear performance include three specialized gear materials (Phosphor Bronze, Aluminum Bronze, and Tin Bronze) and five […]
