WPWEK Double Speed Cast Iron Worm Reducer — Product Overview

The WPWEK extends the WPWE universal body concept to hollow bore output — adding the K-type coupling-free shaft insertion capability to the universal shaft direction platform at extreme ratios. Applications requiring shaft-mount installation in any of the WPW shaft direction configurations at ratios above 1/60 use WPWEK as the single universal hollow bore extreme-ratio drive.

WPWEK Double Speed Worm Reducer — Core Features

■ WPW Universal Body + K Hollow Bore + Double Stage — Universal Shaft-Mount Extreme Ratio

The WPWEK provides the universal shaft direction flexibility of the WPW body combined with K-type hollow bore output and dual-stage extreme ratio reduction. Any WPW shaft input direction, coupling-free shaft insertion at the output, ratios from 1/200 to 1/900+.

■ K Hollow Bore — Direct Shaft Connection at 6,050 Nm Maximum

The driven shaft inserts directly into the K-type hollow bore even at maximum output torques of 6,050 Nm (size 155–250). No output coupling at any torque or ratio level.

■ Universal WPW Body — Multiple Shaft Directions

WPW shaft direction flexibility extends to the K-bore output configuration — universal shaft-mount capability in all WPW input direction configurations.

■ Shaft-Mount Capable — Torque Arm Available

The torque arm boss enables shaft-mounting the WPWEK directly on the driven equipment shaft. Universal WPW body configurations remain available in shaft-mount mode.

■ Dual Independent Oil Chambers — Both Stages

Two independently sealed chambers for both gear stages. Oil volumes specified per WPW shaft direction in the lubrication table.

■ FC20+ Dual-Chamber Universal Housing — Rigid Shaft Alignment

Single-cast FC20+ grey cast iron dual-chamber universal housing maintains inter-stage and output bore alignment across all WPW shaft direction configurations.

WPWEK Worm Reducer — Industry Applications

WPWEK double speed worm reducer applications

☀ Universal Solar Tracker Shaft-Mount Drives

WPWEK universal body accommodates multiple tracker shaft direction configurations in a single product model — K-bore shaft-mount at extreme ratios, any WPW input direction for the specific tracker geometry.

⚙ Multi-Orientation Shaft-Mount Conveyor Drives

Conveyor systems with head shafts in multiple orientations use WPWEK universal body hollow bore drive — one product model, all shaft directions, extreme ratios, direct shaft insertion.

⚒ Universal Valve Actuator Shaft-Mount Platform

Electric valve actuator systems with valve stems in multiple installation directions use WPWEK as the universal K-bore extreme ratio platform — one product covers all valve orientation requirements.

⚊ OEM Universal Hollow Bore Drive Platform

OEM machine builders with hollow bore shaft-mount requirements in multiple shaft directions standardise on WPWEK — universal body, extreme ratio, coupling-free shaft connection across all drive positions.

Frequently Asked Questions — WPWEK Double Speed Worm Reducer

▶ What is the difference between WPWEK and WPEKA?
The WPEKA uses a standard WPE housing with a fixed input shaft direction (A-type below). The WPWEK uses the WPW universal housing body that accommodates multiple shaft input directions. Both have K hollow bore output and dual-stage extreme ratios.
▶ What hollow bore diameters are available in WPWEK?
WPWEK hollow bore diameters match the WPEKA series: 40–70=18.8 mm, 50–80=22.8 mm, 60–100=28.3 mm, 70–120=33.3 mm, 80–135=38.3 mm, 100–155=43.3 mm, 120–175=48.8 mm, 135–200=64.4 mm, 155–250=90 mm.
▶ Can WPWEK be shaft-mounted in any WPW shaft direction configuration?
Yes. The torque arm boss is present regardless of WPW shaft direction configuration. Insert the driven shaft into the K-bore, key it, mount the torque arm reaction bracket, and the WPWEK is shaft-mounted in the selected WPW shaft direction.
▶ What is the maximum output torque for WPWEK?
WPWEK size combination 155–250 delivers up to 6,050 Nm — identical to WPEA and WPWE at the same size since all A-type input WPE variants share the same worm gear internals.
▶ Are oil volumes adjusted for shaft direction in WPWEK?
Yes. The WPW shaft direction affects oil volumes in both stage chambers. Use the WPWEK lubrication table for the correct volume at each WPW shaft direction configuration.
