The model meaning and characteristics of WPA40-10:1-B worm gear reducer

WPA40-10:1-B is a worm gear reducer. Here is some information about it:

Model meaning: WPA indicates that the type of reducer is a worm gear reducer, 40 indicates a center distance of 40mm, 10:1 indicates a transmission ratio of 10, and B may indicate installation methods or other specific parameters (different manufacturers may have different definitions of B, please refer to the manufacturer's sample for details).

Product features: This reducer has a smooth transmission, low vibration, impact, and noise, a large reduction ratio, wide versatility, and can be used in conjunction with various mechanical equipment. It can achieve a large transmission ratio through single-stage transmission, with a compact structure. Most models of reducers have good self-locking properties, which can save braking devices for mechanical equipment with braking requirements. The worm gear is made of 45 # steel through heat treatment processing, and the worm wheel is cast from tin bronze, with good wear resistance, especially in terms of bearing capacity.

Working conditions: The worm gear speed cannot exceed 1500r/min. The working environment temperature is -40 ℃ -+40 ℃. When the working environment temperature is below 0 ℃, the lubricating oil must be heated to above 0 ℃ before starting. When the working environment temperature is above 40 ℃, cooling measures must be taken. The worm gear reducer can rotate forward and backward when entering the shaft.

Output torque: The output torque of WPA series reducers is generally between 28-303Nm. As a smaller specification model, WPA40 has a relatively small output torque, and specific values need to refer to the product manual of the specific manufacturer.

Input power: The input power range of WPA series reducers is generally 0.18-33.2KW, and the input power of WPA40 is usually in a smaller range, which depends on the actual product.

Installation method: There are two types of box body types: basic type (the box body is a vertical or horizontal structure with a bottom board) and universal type (the box body is a rectangular prism with fixed screw holes on multiple surfaces, without a bottom board or with additional bottom boards). The installation method is relatively flexible.
