STM R Series Worm Gearboxes and Torque Limiter

The STM R Series Worm Gearboxes are a reliable and efficient solution for high performance gear reduction in a compact design. These gearboxes are part of STM’s standard line and are known for their versatility, making them suitable for a wide range of industrial and automotive applications.

STM R Worm Gearbox with Torque Limiter

STM R series, Worm Gearboxes and Torque Limiters have upgraded its main product with three new innovations: two technical and one commercial.

All aluminium components ranging from 28 to 70, are now die-cast for improved torsional resistance and structural flexibility. The ZI teething profile (section and involute) has been implemented to enhance efficiency and reduce noise. Additionally, a modular, attachable output flange (FL) has been added for increased versatility.

Always continuing to seek new ideas to expand the market reach – starting with the 1987 patent for the torque limiter integrated into our standard gearbox.

Key Features

  • Hollow Bore Design: The hollow bore design allows for easy integration with shafts, facilitating versatile installation options in various machinery setups.
  • High Gear Ratios: The R series offers a variety of gear ratios, providing significant torque multiplication while reducing speed. This makes them ideal for applications that require high power output with controlled operational speeds.
  • Worm Gear Mechanism: Utilizing a worm gear design, the gearboxes ensure smooth operation, high efficiency, and minimal backlash, which is essential for precision applications.
  • Compact and Lightweight: The R series gearboxes are designed to occupy minimal space while maintaining robust performance, making them suitable for environments where space is at a premium.
