Worm Drives

A worm drive is a popular type of gear arrangement in which a worm (a gear in the form of a screw) meshes with a worm gear. Like other gear drives, a worm drive can reduce rotational speed or allow higher torque to be transmitted.

Characteristics of Worm Drives

Worm Drives are compact, heavy-duty drives that offer long-life performance features and simplified maintenance.
They include double and triple reduction units.
They are available in a variety of configurations for maximum positioning flexibility.
They offer good strength and durability.
The high strength output shaft assures capacity for high torque and overhung loads.

Applications
They are available to suit the requirement of many applications. For food service and other washdown applications, worm drives are available in durable, non-absorbent white or steel epoxy coatings. They are widely used in computers. The biggest benefit that the worm drive offers is the permanence of data written to them. Software that accompanies a worm drive usually enables to create a virtual drive based on the state of the disk at a given data in the past. They are also popular for backup. Worm cartridges store well and easily for long periods of time.
