WPWDS Universal Speed Cast Iron Worm Gearbox
Motorised overhead drives — where the IEC motor mounts directly above the gearbox via flange connection and the installation must work in multiple orientations — combine two demanding specifications: overhead IEC motor geometry (D+S type) and universal housing versatility. The WPWDS Universal Speed Cast Iron Worm Gearbox delivers both: D-type IEC motor flange in the S-type (overhead) input position, WPW-series universal body, and D-split housing for field serviceability. The single product for all motorised overhead-motor universal drive requirements from ratio 1/5 to 1/60.

Universal W-Body Structure
The WPW-series universal housing is manufactured as a single FC20+ grey cast iron casting with bore positions, keyway orientations, and oil channels configured for the selected shaft direction. All 5 shaft direction configurations (A/B/C/D/E) use the same casting geometry with specific machining per configuration.
Hardened 20CrMnTi steel worm shaft with case-hardened tooth flanks (55–60 HRC). The worm shaft and its bearings are selected for the specific input orientation of the model — A-type (below), S-type (overhead), or bilateral — ensuring rated bearing life in the correct load direction.
Tin-bronze ZCuSn10Pb1 alloy worm wheel machined to mesh precisely with the hardened worm shaft. The bronze material provides excellent anti-seizure properties and wear-in characteristics for the worm gear mesh.
Output shaft in quenched-and-tempered steel with double-lip oil seals rated for the specific output orientation (horizontal, vertical upward O-type, vertical downward X-type, side T-type, or extended V-type). Seal selection matches the hydrostatic pressure requirements of the installed orientation.
Single-stage oil bath lubrication. Oil fill port, oil gauge, vent plug, and drain plug are positioned for the selected shaft direction configuration. Fill quantities are specified per configuration in the installation guide — do not use generic fill values across configurations.
FC20+ cast iron foot-mount base integrated with the housing casting. Four mounting holes for B3 foot mounting. The base orientation is fixed for the selected shaft direction configuration. For shaft-mount (hollow bore) applications, the torque arm boss provides housing restraint.
Główne funkcje i korzyści
■ D-IEC Flange (S-Overhead) + Universal W-Body: Motorised Overhead Drive in Any Orientation
WPWDS integrates D-type IEC motor flange in S-type (overhead) input position with WPW universal body — providing direct overhead motor coupling in all 5 shaft direction configurations.
■ D-Split Housing for Elevated Service Access
D-split cover removal allows worm wheel inspection without crane access — motor stays mounted, driven shaft stays connected. Critical safety advantage for elevated overhead motor drive installations.
■ S-Overhead IEC Flange — Rated for Cantilevered Motor Weight
The WPWDS IEC flange is rated for cantilevered motor mounting in the overhead S-type position across all standard IEC motor frames within the size range.
