Worm gear slew drives

The compact worm gear slew drives are characterized by their high power density. The worm teeth ensure that the torque is transmitted to the slewing ring. As a result, this design is particularly suitable when high forces are involved and limited installation space is available, for example in a steering gear for the chassis of crane and other heavy-duty vehicles, in loading cranes or agricultural machines.

Our roller bearing worm slew drives with roller bearings are particularly well suited for heavy-duty applications, as they can transmit especially high torque and tilting moments as well as loads in small installation spaces.
