en.Wedoany.com Reported - KHK USA Inc., a distributor of metric gears in the United States, recently announced the launch of its full line of metric worm gear products, manufactured to the highest quality standards by Japan's Kohara Gear Industry Co. As a distributor of KHK® brand metric gears, KHK USA Inc. is introducing metric worm gear products that deliver quiet and smooth power transmission, suitable for a wide range of applications requiring large reduction ratios in compact spaces.

KHK USA Inc.'s metric worm gear product line features a variety of material options, including stainless steel, aluminum bronze, and nylon gears. Available materials for worms include carbon steel (S45C), chromium alloy steel (SCM415), and stainless steel (SUS303), while worm wheel material options include cast iron (FC200), non-ferrous metals such as phosphor bronze and aluminum bronze, and engineering plastics like MC901 nylon. The worm gear pairs are offered in multiple modules, numbers of teeth, and reduction ratios to meet different operating condition requirements.

KHK Metric Worm Gear Products

All KHK worm wheels and most worms allow for secondary machining operations, such as reaming, adding keyways, adding tapped holes, and reducing hub diameter or modifying shaft diameter. Many of these secondary operations have already been completed on the metric worm gear products stocked by KHK USA Inc., allowing users to utilize readily available inventory. KHK's metric worm gear products offer unique technical advantages; their duplex lead worm and worm wheel pairs consist of a worm with a variable pitch and a matching worm wheel. The worm's variable pitch allows it to be positioned in a specific way, thereby eliminating all backlash between the worm pair when the worm is moved axially.

The metric worm gear product line launched by KHK USA Inc. provides more options for industrial applications requiring compact, high-reduction-ratio drive solutions. The material diversity and secondary machining flexibility of its metric worm gear products enable them to better serve a variety of mechanical power transmission needs.
