Universal W-Body Structure

WPWV 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.

Core Features & Benefits

■ Universal W-Body + V Extended Output Shaft: Long Shaft Drive in Any Orientation

WPWV provides V-type extended solid output shaft in all 5 WPW shaft direction configurations. Extended output shaft length across any installation orientation from one standard product.

■ V-Type Extended Shaft: Greater Span from Gearbox Body

The V-type extended output shaft is longer than the standard output shaft — providing greater reach from the gearbox housing face for multi-sprocket, wide drum, or spanning applications.

■ Extended Shaft Rated for Overhang Loads

The V-type extended shaft is designed with the shaft diameter and bearing specification to handle the overhang bending moment generated by the extended shaft length and loads applied at the shaft end.

■ Full WP Torque Through Extended Shaft

WPWV V-type extended output is rated for full WP output torques — up to 4,796 Nm at size 250 — subject to the overhang load limits specified for the extended shaft length.

■ 5 Shaft Direction Configurations Available

All 5 shaft direction configurations (A–E) available for the WPWV with V-type extended output. Universal orientation with extended shaft capability.

■ Ratios 1/5–1/60 in All V-Output Configurations

Full WP ratio range available in all WPWV configurations.

Industry Applications — WPWV

WP universal speed cast iron worm gearboxes

Extended Shaft Multi-Sprocket Drives

Drives requiring the gearbox output shaft to extend through multiple sprocket positions or span a long distance use the WPWV V-type extended output in the universal housing for flexible shaft positioning.

Wide Belt & Multi-Drum Conveyor Drives

Conveyor systems with wide belts or multiple drums requiring a long output shaft to span the drum width use the WPWV for extended shaft length with universal body orientation support.

OEM Extended Output Universal Platform

OEM machine builders with extended shaft output requirements across multiple machine orientations specify the WPWV as their universal extended shaft drive platform.

Material Handling — Extended Shaft Span

Material handling equipment requiring the drive shaft to extend beyond the gearbox body for mechanical reasons uses the WPWV for extended output length in any installation orientation.

General Extended Output — Universal Housing

Any application requiring an extended solid output shaft across multiple installation orientations benefits from the WPWV’s V-type extended output combined with universal body versatility.

Frequently Asked Questions — WPWV

▶ What is the V-type extended output shaft length?
The V-type extended shaft length (measured from housing face to shaft end) is specified per size in the WPWV dimension table. Extended shaft lengths are typically 1.5–2× the standard output shaft length. Contact our technical team for exact dimensions for your required size.
▶ Is there an IEC motor flange version of the WPWV?
Yes — the WPWDV adds D-type IEC motor flange to the WPWV universal body + V extended output. See the WPWDV product entry.
▶ Is there a hollow bore extended shaft version?
Yes — the WPWKV combines K hollow bore with V extended output geometry in the universal body. See the WPWKV product entry for hollow shaft extended applications.
▶ What is the maximum overhang load for the WPWV extended shaft?
Maximum overhang load is specified per size in the WPWV cantilever load table. The extended shaft diameter is sized to limit bearing bending moment — applying loads beyond the tabulated overhang limit reduces bearing life. For heavy overhang loads (e.g., large sprockets far from the housing), use an outboard bearing to support the extended shaft end.
▶ Can the WPWV be used with a chain sprocket at the extended shaft end?
Yes. Chain sprocket mounting on the extended V-type output shaft is a standard WPWV application. Ensure the sprocket sits within the tabulated overhang distance from the housing face. For sprockets beyond the tabulated distance, specify an outboard bearing bracket.
