WPWEDK Flange-Mounted Universal Hollow Shaft Double Speed Worm Gear Reducer — Zero Couplings at Both Ends with 1/200–1/900 Ultra-High Ratio on Universal Mounting Platform

Precision slow drives — textiles, paper, packaging, and material handling systems requiring output speeds below 10 r/min from a 1500 r/min motor — face a compound challenge: a two-stage reducer is needed for the high ratio, yet the application also benefits from zero coupling hardware at both the motor and driven shaft interfaces. The WPWEDK flange-mounted universal hollow shaft double speed worm gear reducer resolves this by integrating IEC motor flange, H7 hollow output bore, two-stage worm cascade (1/200–1/900), and WPW universal flanged base in one FC25 cast iron housing.

The result is the most compact zero-coupling ultra-high ratio drive available on the WPW universal platform: motor + WPWEDK + driven shaft, three components, zero couplings, ratios from 1/200 to 1/900. Motors 0.12–5.5 kW, bore 30–110 mm, 9 size groups. Über Ever-power | Request a Ratio Selection Guide

Product Structure — IEC Flange + Two-Stage Worm Cascade + Hollow Bore + Universal Base

WPWEDK two-stage motor-direct hollow shaft universal worm gearbox structure

The WPWEDK elongated housing accommodates two worm-and-wheel stages in series, with the IEC motor flange at one end and the H7 hollow bore at the other. The WPW universal flanged base (AC, BC, AD, BD, Z×L) is integrated into the same casting, providing multi-orientation mounting with correct oil lubrication across all rated positions via multi-face oil ports.

Motor Input IEC 60034-7 flange + keyed bore — direct, no coupling
Drive Two worm-and-wheel stages in series — ratio 1/200 to 1/900
Output H7 hollow bore + keyway; 30–110 mm — driven shaft direct, no coupling
Base Universal flanged base; multi-orientation; 4 anchor bolt positions
Result Motor + WPWEDK + shaft = 3 components, 0 couplings, ratio up to 1/900
Self-Locking Strong static self-locking at all ratios ≥1/400

✅ Key Features & Benefits

Zero Couplings at Both Ends — with 1/200–1/900 Ultra-High Ratio

No single-stage product can achieve these ratios. No other WPWE double-speed product simultaneously provides IEC motor direct AND hollow bore output AND universal base. The WPWEDK delivers three zero-coupling features (IEC flange + hollow bore + universal multi-orientation base) AND the two-stage cascade in one housing. Keywords: IEC flange hollow shaft double speed worm reducer, zero-coupling ultra-high ratio worm gearbox.

Universal Flanged Base — Any Orientation at 1/200–1/900

The WPW universal flanged base allows the WPWEDK to be mounted at any supported orientation even at extreme 1/900 output speeds — where reaction torques from the two-stage output are at their maximum and the flanged base rigidity is most valuable for preventing bolt loosening in sustained service.

IEC Motor Swap at Ultra-High Ratio Drives

At 1/900 ratio and 1500 r/min input, output speed is just 1.67 r/min. Maintenance access to the motor is critical in slow precision drives. The IEC flange enables motor replacement without disturbing the hollow bore shaft connection — maintaining the driven equipment position precisely during the motor swap.

Ultra-Strong Self-Locking at High Ratios

At combined ratios ≥1/400, the two-stage WPWEDK provides extremely strong static self-locking — securing connected loads against gravity reversal, residual tension forces, or process pressure when the motor is de-energised. The hollow bore ensures the driven shaft is rigidly held while self-locking acts.

Precision Slow Drives for Textile & Paper

At 1500 r/min input and ratio 1/900, output is 1.67 r/min — enabling very precise slow rotation control for textile winding, paper web tension, and inspection machinery where gear-to-gear ratio stability (not just motor speed control) is the primary precision mechanism.

9 Size Groups — Full Power Range

Nine size groups accepting 0.12 kW to 5.5 kW motors cover the complete range of ultra-high ratio hollow shaft zero-coupling drive requirements from small textile machine spools to large conveyor slow positioning drives.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“We use WPWEDK at 1/600 ratio on our industrial winding machine hollow shaft motor-direct drives. The IEC flange motor-direct and hollow bore shaft engagement eliminate both couplings, and the 1/600 ratio gives us the very slow winding speed we need from our standard motors. The two-stage gear precision provides extremely stable ratio — important for consistent winding tension. Excellent product.”

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between WPWEDK and WPWDK?

The WPWDK is a single-stage drive with ratios 1/5–1/60. The WPWEDK uses two worm-and-wheel stages in series, achieving ratios 1/200–1/900 — impossible with a single stage. Both have IEC motor flange + hollow bore + universal flanged base. Choose WPWDK when 1/5–1/60 ratios are sufficient; choose WPWEDK when ultra-high 1/200–1/900 ratios are required for very slow precision drives.

What output speed does the WPWEDK deliver at 1500 r/min input?

At 1500 r/min input: ratio 1/200 → 7.5 r/min output; ratio 1/400 → 3.75 r/min; ratio 1/600 → 2.5 r/min; ratio 1/900 → 1.67 r/min. These ultra-low output speeds are what makes the WPWEDK essential for textile winding, paper tension, and precision indexing drives where the gear ratio itself provides the speed precision, not just the motor control.

Is there any efficiency loss in the WPWEDK two-stage versus a single stage?

Yes — two worm meshes means two sets of mesh losses. Overall efficiency at 1/600 ratio is typically 45–65%, compared to 65–80% for a single-stage 1/60 ratio unit. This is acceptable for the slow precision applications where WPWEDK is used, where output torque is high (from the two-stage multiplication) and the moderate efficiency is balanced by the precision ratio stability.

What lubricant is recommended for the WPWEDK two-stage housing?

With two heat-generating worm gear stages in an enclosed housing, thermal management is more important than for single-stage units. We recommend synthetic PG ISO VG 460 oil, which has lower friction coefficient than mineral oil (improving efficiency slightly), better thermal stability, and longer drain intervals. First change at 500 hours; subsequent changes every 3,000 hours.

Can the WPWEDK hollow bore be used for direct conveyor drum shaft mounting?

Yes — at ratios 1/200–1/400, the WPWEDK can be used for slow conveyor positioning drives. The hollow bore engages the drum shaft directly. For continuous conveyor drives, ensure the selected ratio delivers sufficient output torque for your load — use the WPED.WPEDK.WPWED.WPWEDK power and torque table (PDF page 32) for your specific motor power and ratio.
