 Features & Benefits of Auma India Worm Gear Operators

FEATURES BENEFITS

Rigid Casting Strong & Reliable

Manufactured according to Auma Germany Reliable, proven design, German know how
Drawings

O
360 Worm wheel Enchanced life since 3 extra segments
are available for future use

Removable Splined coupling No orientation hassles

Enclosure protection : IP67 Safe for outdoor application

Grease lubrication Ensures smooth operation

Freedom of ''any position mounting''

Mechanical end stoppers at the gearbox input Allows easy setting for the desired
output travel
Imparts a positive feeling when end positions
are reached, during manual operation

Only input torque is sensed by the mechanical No chance of damage to gearbox housing
stoppers (and not the output torque which is
very high)

Meets different operating time requirement

Available with various reduction ratios and optimizes electrical actuator selection

Results in lesser input torque requirement,

High mechanical advange
thus optimizing electrical actuator selection

Different versions Provides ''choice of selection'' to meet

plant requirement

Step 2 : Selection of Actuator

Referring to the ''Technical Data'' of Gear Box
catalogue, suitable multi-turn actuator (given in the
bottom row) is to be selected.

Please note that economical sizing of actuator can be

done by using higher reduction ratios considering
operating time requirement. This is achieved by
employing a primary reduction gear box having
different ratios.
