What are the disadvantages of CWU200-50-3F arc cylindrical worm reducer

CWU200-50-3F arc cylindrical worm reducer may have the following disadvantages:


  • Low transmission efficiency : The relative sliding speed between the tooth surfaces during the worm transmission process is large, resulting in serious friction loss and generally not high transmission efficiency. Generally, the efficiency of a single-stage worm transmission is between 0.7-0.9. For worm transmissions with a larger speed ratio (such as the speed ratio of this model is 50), the efficiency may be lower and the energy loss is relatively large.

  • Large heat generation : Due to low efficiency, a large amount of energy is lost in the form of thermal energy, and the heat generated during work is obvious. In the case of continuous operation and insufficient heat dissipation measures, the equipment temperature will rise rapidly, which may reduce the viscosity of the lubricant, destroy the lubricating effect, and accelerate the wear of the parts.

  • High manufacturing cost : In order to ensure the accuracy and performance of worm transmission, the manufacturing accuracy of worm and worm gear is extremely high. Especially for worm gear components, they usually need to be made of valuable materials such as tin bronze, which directly leads to an increase in manufacturing costs.


  • Faster wear : The friction between worm gears and worms is large, which can easily lead to wear. Especially in cases of poor lubrication, excessive load, excessive speed or impurities in the working environment, it will accelerate the wear of the tooth surface, affecting the stability and service life of the transmission.

  • Noise and vibration may exist : The worm gear reducer will produce some noise and vibration when meshed, especially at high speed or high load conditions, which may affect the working environment and precision drivetrains.

  • Installation and maintenance requirements are high : its structure is relatively complex and requires precise manufacturing and assembly processes. Professional knowledge and skills are also required during installation and maintenance, otherwise it may affect the performance and service life of the reducer.

  • The load-bearing capacity is relatively limited : Although the load-bearing capacity of the arc cylindrical worm reducer is improved compared with ordinary worm reducers, its load-bearing capacity is still relatively limited compared to some other types of reducers and is not suitable for particularly high load and high-strength working conditions.
