The difference in performance characteristics between cycloidal pinwheel reducer and worm gear reducer

The difference in performance characteristics between cycloidal pinwheel reducer and worm gear reducer:

Cycloidal pin wheel reducer

High transmission efficiency: Generally, the efficiency can reach over 90%, and the efficiency loss is relatively small in multi-stage transmission.

Large transmission ratio: A single-stage transmission can achieve a reduction ratio of 1:87, and if a multi-stage transmission is used, the reduction ratio is even greater.

Strong load-bearing capacity: The meshing between the cycloidal gear and the needle gear adopts rolling friction, with low wear and long service life, and can withstand large loads.

Small backlash and backlash: Usually output on the surface, the backlash and backlash of imported cycloidal pinwheel reducers can be controlled within 10 arc minutes.

worm gear reducer

Large transmission ratio: It can achieve a large transmission ratio, usually between 10-80, or even higher.

Smooth transmission: The meshing of the worm gear is continuous, and there is less vibration and noise during the transmission process.

Equipped with self-locking function: When the helix angle of the worm gear is less than the equivalent friction angle of the meshing surface, the worm gear reducer has self-locking function and can be used to prevent equipment reversal.

Low efficiency: Due to the sliding friction of the worm gear, the transmission efficiency is generally around 70% -80%, and there is a significant loss of efficiency during high-power transmission.
