Custom Worm and Worm Wheel for Power Transmission Systems

Schultech designs and manufactures custom worm and worm wheel solutions for demanding mechanical application requirements. As an experienced manufacturer, we deliver worm-based gear systems optimised for power transmission, reliability and compact design across various industries.

Our custom worm solutions are engineered for controlled rotation, high load capacity and high precision motion control.

Worm Gear Technology and Mechanical Performance

A worm gear is a type of gear consisting of a worm and a mating wheel, commonly referred to as a worm wheel. This worm and worm wheel configuration enables significant reduction ratios within a compact mechanical envelope.

Compared to spur gears, helical gears or bevel gears, worm gears and worm systems offer smoother motion, low noise, and higher stability. The worm and worm gear arrangement provides increased contact area, enabling higher torque transmission and improved service life.

Precision Worm Gear Sets Manufactured to Specification

We manufacture worm gear sets and complete gear set solutions according to exact customer specification. Each worm and gear pairing is designed to meet a defined requirement, including ratio, number of teeth, load conditions and rotational speed.

Our precision gears are produced with controlled geometry, ensuring accurate mesh between the tooth profiles for maximum efficiency and reduced friction.

Materials, Heat Treatment and Durability

Optimised Material Selection

Our material selection process includes steel, bronze and cast iron, chosen to maximise wear resistance and durability. The worm is commonly produced from hardened steel, while the worm wheel is often manufactured in bronze to improve sliding behaviour.

We apply controlled heat treatment and finishing processes, including precision grind, to enhance surface quality and ensure long-term durability and long service life.

Custom Manufacturing Capabilities

Our manufacturing capabilities allow worm gears can be manufactured for a wide range of industrial uses. Gears can be manufactured as part of a complete assembly or as individual component solutions.

Each worm may be integrated with a shaft or supplied for direct installation into a gearbox or machine. Our capability covers both standard designs and custom gears developed for specialised mechanical systems.

Applications in Machines and Lifting Systems

Worm and gear systems are commonly used in machine drives, indexing units and lift mechanisms where controlled motion and safety are critical. The inherent characteristics of the screw-like worm design allow self-locking behaviour in many configurations.

This makes worm gear solutions ideal for mechanical systems requiring stable positioning and controlled transmission of motion.

Engineering Benefits of Worm and Worm Wheel Systems

The worm and worm configuration enables high load handling with compact geometry. Optimised lubrication reduces wear, while controlled friction improves operational stability.

Properly engineered worm solutions deliver consistent performance, extended service life, and reliable operation even under continuous duty conditions.
