WPWA Universal Speed Cast Iron Worm Gearbox — WPW Series

When your installation requires the standard below-entry input shaft geometry (motor coupling from beneath the gearbox) but the driven equipment must be accessible from multiple installation positions — and you need a housing that can be repositioned across machine variants without changing the gearbox model — the WPWA Universal Speed Cast Iron Worm Gearbox provides the solution. Built on the WPW-series universal body with A-type (below) input shaft configuration, the WPWA delivers standard below-entry worm gearbox performance with the universal body’s installation flexibility and multi-position support in a single cast iron housing.

■ A-Type Input (Below) + Universal W-Body: Standard Input, Universal Housing

The WPWA provides the familiar below-entry input shaft geometry (standard for horizontal worm gearbox installations) in the WPW-series universal body, adding multi-position mounting capability to this standard configuration.

■ 5 Shaft Direction Configurations for A-Input Geometry

All 5 WPW shaft direction configurations (A–E) are available with the A-type input, allowing the below-entry motor position to be combined with diverse output shaft directions and housing mounting orientations.

■ Full WP Ratio Range 1/5–1/60

All standard worm ratios are available in the WPWA across all 5 shaft direction configurations — no ratio restrictions for the A-input universal housing.

■ FC20+ Cast Iron — Same Standard as WP Series

The WPW universal body maintains theFC20+ grey cast iron specification of the standard WP series housings. Universal mounting capability does not compromise material quality.

■ Output Torques up to 4,796 Nm (Size 250)

The WPWA provides the full WP series output torque range through the universal body with A-type input configuration.

■ ISO 9001:2000 + CE — Full Certification

Full ISO 9001:2000 quality management and CE marking for all WPWA configurations and sizes.

⚔ Standard Process Drives — Universal Housing Benefit

Standard process equipment drives with below-entry input that benefit from the universal body’s multi-position mounting options — for facilities standardising on a single gearbox platform regardless of input orientation.

⚒ Below-Entry Input — Multi-Machine OEM Standard

OEM machine builders whose machines require below-entry motor input across multiple machine configurations use the WPWA for its universal body combined with standard A-type input geometry.

⚊ Conveyor & Material Handling — A-Input Universal

Conveyor and material handling systems with below-entry motor positions in multiple machine configurations use the WPWA as their A-input universal standard.

☵ Packaging & Assembly Line Drives

Packaging machinery and assembly line drives with standard A-type motor input positions use the WPWA for the flexibility of universal body mounting across diverse machine layouts.

⚛ General Purpose — A-Input with Universal Versatility

General-purpose drive applications with below-entry input geometry that benefit from the WPW universal body’s multi-position versatility for future machine adaptation.

✎ ISO 9001:2000 Certified

Every WPWA is manufactured, assembled, and tested under ISO 9001:2000 quality management. Our factory was among the first in this product category to achieve this certification.

✎ CE Marking

Full CE marking confirms compliance with EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC — covering safety, design standards, and manufacturing quality for all WPW-series universal configurations.

✎ Pre-Shipment Testing

Noise test (below 72 dB(A) at rated load), oil leak test (30-minute pressurisation), torque transmission test (output torque within ±5% of rated). Failed units are reworked — not shipped.

✎ Universal Configuration Quality

Each shaft direction configuration (A–E) is verified dimensionally for correct bore position, keyway orientation, and oil channel routing before leaving our production line.

“WPWA on our below-entry motor drives across multiple machine configurations. The universal body means one product covers all our machine variants with A-type input. Standardised spares, standardised maintenance — exactly what we needed for a large multi-machine installation.”

“WPWA universal housing with A-type input on our production line drives. The universal body allows us to position the gearbox across different machine configurations without changing the gearbox model. Good practical benefit for a multi-machine OEM product range.”

“WPWA on our food processing line drives. Standard A-type input with the flexibility of the universal WPW body. Quality is excellent, dimensions are accurate to the catalogue data. Good product for our multi-line food processing standardisation requirement.”

“WPWA universal housing with standard A-input on our processing equipment. The universal body is slightly larger than the orientation-specific equivalent but the standardisation benefit outweighs this. Cast iron quality is consistently good across orders.”
