Frequently asked questions about helical and helical bevel gearboxes
1. What is a helical and helical bevel gearbox and what is its function?
A helical and helical bevel gearbox is a mechanical power-transmission element that reduces the speed of an electric motor while increasing the output torque. It adapts the rotational speed to the machine requirements and provides efficient, reliable and precise power transmission. Helical and helical bevel gearboxes are used in almost every industrial sector where the electric motor alone cannot provide the required torque or speed.
2. What is the difference between a helical and helical bevel gearbox and a worm gearbox?
The main difference lies in the power-transmission principle and efficiency. Helical and helical bevel gearboxes achieve very high mechanical efficiency, often above 95%, making them suitable for high-load and continuous-duty applications. Worm gearboxes provide higher gear ratios in a compact design and often offer a self-locking function, but their efficiency is somewhat lower because of the greater sliding friction between the teeth.
3. How do we select the correct gear ratio for a helical and helical bevel gearbox?
The choice of gear ratio depends on the desired rotational speed and the required torque at the output shaft. A higher gear ratio means a lower speed and higher torque. The electric-motor power, operating load, machine operating mode, starting loads and required process speed must all be considered. A correctly sized gear unit provides optimal efficiency and a long service life for the drive system.
4. When should a servo gear unit be selected?
Servo gear units are intended for applications where high positioning accuracy and minimal backlash are essential. They are most commonly used in industrial robots, CNC machining centres, automated production lines, manipulators and other systems where fast response, motion repeatability and precise torque transmission are important.
5. What information is required to select a helical and helical bevel gearbox?
To select the correct helical and helical bevel gearboxes, we need the electric-motor power, motor speed, required output-shaft speed, required torque, mounting arrangement, operating position, load type, output-shaft size and information about the operating environment. Based on these details, we can select a helical and helical bevel gearboxes that will provide a long service life and optimal performance.
6. Can a helical and helical bevel gearbox be connected to different electric motors?
Yes. Most modern helical and helical bevel gearboxes are designed to accept different electric motors via standardised motor flanges. Versions are available for IEC electric motors, servo motors and many other industrial standards, providing a high degree of flexibility when designing or refurbishing drive systems.
7. In which industries are helical and helical bevel gearboxes most commonly used?
Helical and helical bevel gearboxes are indispensable in manufacturing, automation, logistics, robotics, the food and pharmaceutical industries, wood processing and metalworking, as well as in conveyor systems, mixers, pumps, lifting equipment, packaging lines, wastewater treatment plants and many other industrial applications requiring reliable power transmission.
8. How should a helical and helical bevel gearbox be maintained for a long service life?
Regular maintenance includes checking the lubricant or oil, inspecting seals, checking gear wear, monitoring operating temperature and possible vibrations, and correcting any irregularities in good time. A correctly sized and properly maintained helical and helical bevel gearboxes can operate trouble-free for many years, even under demanding industrial conditions.
