What is a helical gear motor?

Helical Gear Motor is mainly composed of an electric motor and a helical gear reducer. Among them, the helical gear reducer achieves speed reduction and torque increase through the meshing of helical gears. The tooth shape of the helical gear is helical. This special tooth shape enables the gear to produce a larger contact area during the transmission process, thereby improving the smoothness and load-bearing capacity of the transmission.

The working principle of the Helical Gear Motor is similar to that of the ordinary gear motor, both of which realize power transmission through the meshing of gears. However, due to the helical gear tooth shape, a certain axial force will be generated during the transmission process. In order to balance these axial forces, the helical gear motor usually needs to install a thrust bearing or spring or other balancing device on the shaft.

Features and Advantages

1. High transmission efficiency: The helical gear has a large meshing area and small contact stress, so the transmission efficiency is high and the energy loss is small.

2. Large load-bearing capacity: Due to the special tooth shape of the helical gear, its load-bearing capacity is greatly improved, and it can withstand large loads and impacts.

3. Large transmission ratio: The helical gear motor has a wide range of transmission ratios, which can meet the speed and torque requirements under different working conditions.

4. Smooth operation: The meshing process of helical gears is smooth, with low noise and vibration, and is suitable for occasions with high requirements for smooth operation.

Helical gear motors are widely used in industries such as industry, aerospace, and automobile manufacturing. Especially in situations where high torque, low speed, and large transmission ratio are required, helical gear motors have significant advantages.
