Do You Still Believe These Common Worm Gear Myths?
Worm gears get dismissed as inefficient or outdated, but after machining precision worm gear components for medical devices, automation systems, and audio equipment, we’ve seen how these misconceptions lead to missed design opportunities. Engineers often avoid worm gears entirely or specify them incorrectly, overlooking compact, high-ratio solutions that could simplify their assemblies. Seven persistent worm […]
9 Factors to Consider Before Choosing a Worm Gear for Your Design
Engineers frequently struggle with worm gear selection, balancing performance requirements against manufacturing feasibility and cost constraints. Having machined custom worm gears for robotics, automation, and precision equipment across aerospace and industrial sectors, we’ve identified nine critical factors that determine both gear system success and production efficiency. Nine critical factors determine worm gear system success: custom […]
