The core of Swedrive’s offering is built on the worm gear. Our long experience of designing and manufacturing worm wheels and worm screws gives us unbeatable flexibility in offering tailor-made solutions. What worm gears, screw jacks and electromechanical cylinders have in common is that the vast majority of them have a gear solution based on our own worm wheels and worm screws.
With an optimized worm gear in high-quality materials, high efficiency is achieved in a compact size and at a low noise level. Through adaptations of the worm screw we can connect most types of motors in a compact installation. Worm wheels are normally made of tin bronze with a special alloy for the best lubrication properties and service life, but we can also replace this with other alloys when the customer’s application so requires.
We manufacture all our worm wheels and worm screws in our factory in Lagan, as this is the key to the quality and performance of our products.
