Maintenance of the gearbox of the dual-screw extruder
1. The gear box of the dual-screw extruder should be well-ventilated, and the working environment temperature should be within the range of 5-35 °C.
2. Always check the oil quantity of the gear lubricating oil in the box to ensure that the transmission parts in the box are well lubricated.
3. Pay attention to check the bearing parts of the box frequently. The oil temperature of the oil tank of the transmission box should not exceed 70 ºC during operation.
4. The newly put into use gearbox needs to replace the lubricating oil after 250 hours of operation. The oil change time depends on the state of the oil. It is recommended to replace it after 4000-8000 hours of operation or once a year.
5. The gearbox of the dual-screw extruder needs to be regularly maintained and inspected once a year
Operating Process
1. The gear on the input shaft is driven by the motor and starts to rotate.
2. The rotating input gear meshes with other gears inside the gearbox, transmitting power.
3. Different-sized gears within the gearbox are combined to form a gear train. Through continuous meshing and rotation, the high-speed, low-torque power from the input shaft gradually converts into low-speed, high-torque output.
4. The output shaft is connected to the last gear and transfers the output torque to the load.
5. Gear reduction gearboxes typically include lubrication and cooling systems to ensure smooth operation and prevent overheating and damage.
6. Our extruder gearbox converts high-speed, low-torque power into low-speed, high-torque output by changing the size ratios and meshing arrangements of different gears, achieving the function of speed reduction.
Types of Gearboxes:
Based on customer requirements, gear reduction gearboxes can be classified according to the size of the output shaft, center distance of the output shaft, output speed, and torque. Alternatively, we can provide several commonly used types of gearboxes for customers to choose from.

Advantages and disadvantages of worm gear reducer gearbox
If you are looking for a worm gear reducer gearbox, you have come to the right place. This article will cover the pros and cons of worm gear reducer gearboxes and discuss the different types available. You will learn about multi-head worm gear reducer gearboxes, hollow shaft worm gear reducer gearboxes as well as hypoid gear sets and motors.
Hollow shaft worm gear reducer gearbox
Hollow shaft worm gear reducer gearboxes are used to connect two or more rotating parts. They are available in single-axis and dual-axis versions and can be connected to various motor types. They can also have different ratios. The ratios of these gear reducer gearboxes depend on the quality of the bearings and assembly process.
Hollow shaft worm gear reducer gearboxes are made of bronze worm gears and cast iron hubs. The gears are lubricated with synthetic oil. They are lightweight and durable. They can be installed in various engine housings. Additionally, these gear reducer gearboxes are available in a variety of sizes. The range includes 31.5, 40, 50, 63, and 75mm models. Other sizes are available upon request.
In addition to worm gear reducer gearboxes, there are also helical gear reducer gearboxes. These reducer gearboxes can achieve very low output speeds. They are also suitable for all-around installations. In addition, the advantage of a multi-stage reducer gearbox is that it is more efficient than a single-stage gear reducer gearbox. They also feature low noise, low vibration, and low energy consumption.
Hollow shaft worm gear reducer gearboxes are generally less expensive and last longer. They are also a suitable replacement for solid shaft gearboxes for machines that require high torque without compromising strength. Typical gear arrangements include worm, spur, helical and bevel gears. Gear ratio is the ratio of input torque to output torque.
Multi-head worm gear reducer gearbox
The multi-head worm gear reducer gearbox is used to reduce the speed of the machine. It uses friction to hold the worm in place while transmitting power. These gears can also be called ground worms and hardened worm gears. They are useful in conveying systems and most engineering applications.
Multiple worm reducer gearboxes have a large number of gear ratios. These gear designs have a central cross-section that forms the front and rear boundaries of the worm gear. This design is a better choice than other worm gears because it is less prone to wear and can be used with a variety of motors and other electronics.
Adjustable multi-head worm gear reducer gearbox to reduce axial play. Usually, the backlash on the left and right sides of the worm is the same. However, if you need less backlash, you can buy a double lead worm gear. This design is ideal for precision applications requiring small clearances. The lead of the opposing teeth of the double worm gear is different from the right side, so the backlash can be adjusted without adjusting the center distance between the worm gears.
Worm gear reducer gearboxes are available from a variety of manufacturers. Many gear manufacturers stock these gears. Since the gear ratios are standardized, there is no need to adjust the height, diameter, or length of the shaft. Worm gears have fewer moving parts, which means they require less maintenance.
Hypoid Gear Set
Worm gears are the most common type of gear. While these gears are great for high-to-low ratios, hypoid gear sets are much more efficient in all ratios. This difference is due to higher torque density, better geometry and materials, and the way hypoid gears transmit force differently than worm gears.
Hypoid gear sets have curved helical teeth. This results in smooth gear meshing and little noise. This is because the hypoid gears start to slowly contact each other, but the contact progresses smoothly from tooth to tooth. This reduces friction and wears, thereby increasing the efficiency of the machine.
The main advantages of hypoid gears over worm gears are higher torque capacity and lower noise levels. Although their upfront cost may be higher, hypoid gears are more efficient than worm gears. They are able to handle higher initial inertia loads and can deliver more torque with a smaller motor. This saves money in the long run.
Another advantage of hypoid gears is the lower operating temperature. They also do not require oil lubrication or ventilation holes, reducing maintenance requirements. The hypoid gear set is maintenance-free, and the grease on the hypoid gear set lasts for decades.
Hypoid gear motor
A hypoid gear motor is a good choice for a worm gear reducer gearbox as it allows for a smaller motor and more efficient energy transfer. In fact, a 1 hp motor driving a hypoid reducer gearbox can provide the same output as a 1/2 hp motor driving a worm reducer gearbox. A study by Agknx compared two gear reduction methods and determined that a hypoid gear motor produces more torque and power than a worm reducer gearbox when using a fixed reduction ratio of 60:1. The study also showed that the 1/2 HP hypoid gear motor is more energy efficient and reduces electricity bills.
Worm reducer gearboxes run hotter than hypoid gears, and the added heat can shorten their lifespan. This can cause components to wear out faster, and the motor may require more frequent oil changes. In addition, hypoid gear motors are more expensive to manufacture.
Compared to worm gears, hypoid gears offer higher efficiency and lower operating noise. However, they require additional processing techniques. They are made of bronze, a softer metal capable of absorbing heavy shock loads. Worm drives require work hardening and are less durable. Operating noise is reduced by up to 30%, and hypoid gears are less prone to breakage than bevel gears.
Hypoid gear motors are prized for their efficiency and are used in applications requiring lower torque. A unique hypoid tooth profile reduces friction. In addition, hypoid gear motors are ideal for applications where space is limited. These geared motors are often used with pulleys and levers.
R series worm gear reducer gearbox
R series worm gear reducer gearboxes have a variety of characteristics that make them ideal for different applications. Its high rigidity cast iron housing and rigid side gears are designed for smooth drive and low noise. It also features high load capacity and long service life. Additionally, it can be assembled into many different configurations as required.
High efficiency, large output torque and good use efficiency. It comes in four basic models ranging from 0.12KW to 200KW. It can be matched with right angle bevel gearbox to provide large speed ratio and high torque. This combination is also suitable for low output and high torque.
AGKNX Electric Worm Gear reducer gearbox

These reducer gearboxes feature double lip oil seals, an aluminum alloy housing, and two bearings on the input and output shafts. These reducer gearboxes are rust-proof and have epoxy paint on the inside. They are available in a variety of ratios, from 7.5:1 to 100:1.
Worm reducer gearboxes are one of the most cost-effective and compact gears. These reducer gearboxes increase output torque while reducing input speed. AGKNX Electric’s worm gear reducer gearboxes are pre-installed with Mobil SHC634 Synthetic Gear Oil. These reducer gearboxes have an internal oil gallery guide to protect the shaft.

What is a worm gear reducer gearbox?
A worm gear reducer gearbox is a mechanical device that uses a worm gear and a worm to reduce the speed of a rotating shaft. The gear reducer gearbox can increase the output torque of the engine according to the gear ratio. This type of gear reducer gearbox is characterized by its flexibility and compact size. It also increases the strength and efficiency of the drive.
Hollow shaft worm gear reducer gearbox
The hollow shaft worm gear reducer gearbox is an additional output shaft connecting various motors and other gearboxes. They can be installed horizontally or vertically. Depending on size and scale, they can be used with gearboxes from 4GN to 5GX.
Worm gear reducer gearboxes are usually used in combination with helical gear reducer gearboxes. The latter is mounted on the input side of the worm gear reducer gearbox and is a great way to reduce the speed of high output motors. The gear reducer gearbox has high efficiency, low speed operation, low noise, low vibration and low energy consumption.
Worm gear reducer gearboxes are made of hard steel or non-ferrous metals, increasing their efficiency. However, gears are not indestructible, and failure to keep running can cause the gear oil to rust or emulsify. This is due to moisture condensation that occurs during the operation and shutdown of the reducer gearbox. The assembly process and quality of the bearing are important factors to prevent condensation.
Hollow shaft worm gear reducer gearboxes can be used in a variety of applications. They are commonly used in machine tools, variable speed drives and automotive applications. However, they are not suitable for continuous operation. If you plan to use a hollow shaft worm gear reducer gearbox, be sure to choose the correct one according to your requirements.
Double throat worm gear
Worm gear reducer gearboxes use a worm gear as the input gear. An electric motor or sprocket drives the worm, which is supported by anti-friction roller bearings. Worm gears are prone to wear due to the high friction in the gear teeth. This leads to corrosion of the confinement surfaces of the gears.
The pitch diameter and working depth of the worm gear are important. The pitch circle diameter is the diameter of the imaginary circle in which the worm and the gear mesh. Working depth is the maximum amount of worm thread that extends into the backlash. Throat diameter is the diameter of the circle at the lowest point of the worm gear face.
When the friction angle between the worm and the gear exceeds the lead angle of the worm, the worm gear is self-locking. This feature is useful for lifting equipment, but may be detrimental to systems that require reverse sensitivity. In these systems, the self-locking ability of the gears is a key limitation.
The double throat worm gear provides the tightest connection between the worm and the gear. The worm gear must be installed correctly to ensure maximum efficiency. One way to install the worm gear assembly is through a keyway. The keyway prevents the shaft from rotating, which is critical for transmitting torque. Then attach the gear to the hub using the set screw.
The axial and circumferential pitch of the worm gear should match the pitch diameter of the larger gear. Single-throat worm gears are single-threaded, and double-throat worm gears are double-throat. A single thread design advances one tooth, while a double thread design advances two teeth. The number of threads should match the number of mating gears.
Self-locking function
One of the most prominent features of a worm reducer gearbox is its self-locking function, which prevents the input and output shafts from being interchanged. The self-locking function is ideal for industrial applications where large gear reduction ratios are required without enlarging the gear box.
The self-locking function of a worm reducer gearbox can be achieved by choosing the right type of worm gear. However, it should be noted that this feature is not available in all types of worm gear reducer gearboxes. Worm gears are self-locking only when a specific speed ratio is reached. When the speed ratio is too small, the self-locking function will not work effectively.
Self-locking status of a worm reducer gearbox is determined by the lead, pressure, and coefficient of friction. In the early twentieth century, cars had a tendency to pull the steering toward the side with a flat tire. A worm drive reduced this tendency by reducing frictional forces and transmitting steering force to the wheel, which aids in steering and reduces wear and tear.
A self-locking worm reducer gearbox is a simple-machine with low mechanical efficiency. It is self-locking when the work at one end is greater than the work at the other. If the mechanical efficiency of a worm reducer gearbox is less than 50%, the friction will result in losses. In addition, the self-locking function is not applicable when the drive is reversed. This characteristic makes self-locking worm gears ideal for hoisting and lowering applications.
Another feature of a worm reducer gearbox is its ability to reduce axially. Worm gears can be double-lead or single-lead, and it is possible to adjust their backlash to compensate for tooth wear.
Heat generated by worm gears
Worm gears generate considerable amounts of heat. It is essential to reduce this heat to improve the performance of the gears. This heat can be mitigated by designing the worms with smoother surfaces. In general, the speed at which worm gears mesh should be in the range of 20 to 24 rms.
There are many approaches for calculating worm gear efficiency. However, no other approach uses an automatic approach to building the thermal network. The other methods either abstractly investigate the gearbox as an isothermal system or build the TNM statically. This paper describes a new method for automatically calculating heat balance and efficiency for worm gears.
Heat generated by worm gears is a significant source of power loss. Worm gears are typically characterized by high sliding speeds in their tooth contacts, which causes high frictional heat and increased thermal stresses. As a result, accurate calculations are necessary to ensure optimal operation. In order to determine the efficiency of a gearbox system, manufacturers often use the simulation program WTplus to calculate heat loss and efficiency. The heat balance calculation is achieved by adding the no-load and load-dependent power losses of the gearbox.
Worm gears require a special type of lubricant. A synthetic oil that is non-magnetic and has a low friction coefficient is used. However, the oil is only one of the options for lubricating worm gears. In order to extend the life of worm gears, you should also consider adding a natural additive to the lubricant.
Worm gears can have a very high reduction ratio. They can achieve massive reductions with little effort, compared to conventional gearsets which require multiple reductions. Worm gears also have fewer moving parts and places for failure than conventional gears. One disadvantage of worm gears is that they are not reversible, which limits their efficiency.
Size of worm gear reducer gearbox
Worm gear reducer gearboxes can be used to decrease the speed of a rotating shaft. They are usually designed with two shafts at right angles. The worm wheel acts as both the pinion and rack. The central cross section forms the boundary between the advancing and receding sides of the worm gear.
The output gear of a worm gear reducer gearbox has a small diameter compared to the input gear. This allows for low-speed operation while producing a high-torque output. This makes worm gear reducer gearboxes great for space-saving applications. They also have low initial costs.
Worm gear reducer gearboxes are one of the most popular types of speed reducer gearboxes. They can be small and powerful and are often used in power transmission systems. These units can be used in elevators, conveyor belts, security gates, and medical equipment. Worm gearing is often found in small and large sized machines.
Worm gears can also be adjusted. A dual-lead worm gear has a different lead on the left and right tooth surfaces. This allows for axial movement of the worm and can also be adjusted to reduce backlash. A backlash adjustment may be necessary as the worm wears down. In some cases, this backlash can be adjusted by adjusting the center distance between the worm gear.
The size of worm gear reducer gearbox depends on its function. For example, if the worm gear is used to reduce the speed of an automobile, it should be a model that can be installed in a small car.
