Universal W-Body Structure

WPWKT universal cast iron worm gearbox structure

■ Universal W-Body Housing
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.
■ Worm Shaft
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.
■ Worm Wheel
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 & Seal
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.
■ Oil System
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.
■ Foot-Mount Base
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.

Frequently Asked Questions — WPWKT

▶ What is the T-type hollow bore output used for?
The T-type hollow bore (K+T combination) provides a compact right-angle shaft-mount connection where the driven shaft enters the hollow bore from the side (at 90 degrees to the motor input shaft). This is used for right-angle conveyor head shaft-mount drives, right-angle mixer shaft-mounts, and any application where the driven shaft must be perpendicular to the motor shaft with no output coupling.
▶ Is there an IEC motor flange version of the WPWKT?
Yes — the WPWDKT adds D-type IEC motor flange to the WPWKT universal body + K hollow T-side output. See the WPWDKT product entry.
▶ Can the WPWKT be installed in shaft-mount mode without foot-mount base?
Yes. In shaft-mount applications, the hollow bore engages the driven shaft and the torque arm provides housing restraint. The foot-mount base is not required. The T-type shaft-mount orientation means the driven shaft is horizontal and at 90 degrees to the motor shaft.
▶ What hollow bore diameter is available for WPWKT size 130?
WPWKT size 130: hollow bore diameter 40 mm, keyway 12×5 mm per GB/T 1095. For other sizes, refer to the WPWKT dimension table.
▶ How does the WPWKT oil fill differ for T-type side output versus vertical output?
T-type side output has a different worm gear submersion geometry compared to vertical output (O or X type). Use the WPWKT T-orientation fill quantities from the installation guide. Do not substitute O-type or horizontal fill quantities for T-type orientations.
