What is Worm Gear Torque?

Worm gear torque refers to the torque generated by a worm gear mechanism, which is calculated by multiplying the load at the meshing point by the radius of the pitch circle. This measure is crucial in mechanical engineering to understand the efficiency and performance of worm gear systems.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ Twg = 500 \times 0.1 = 50 \text{ N-m} \]

The Worm Gear Torque is 50 N-m.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ Twg = 1000 \times 0.2 = 200 \text{ N-m} \]

The Worm Gear Torque is 200 N-m.
