NMRV Worm Gearbox Selection Guide – How to Choose the Right Model


NMRV Worm Gearbox – 4-Step Selection Guide

Step 1 – Determine your rati

Ratio = Motor RPM ÷ Desired Output RPM

Example: 1,400 RPM motor, need 35 RPM output → 1,400 ÷ 35 = 40:1

Step 2 – Calculate output torque
Output Torque (Nm) = Motor Torque × Ratio × Efficiency

Always include efficiency in your calculation. A 60:1 worm gearbox at 55% efficiency delivers much

 less torque than the ratio alone suggests

Step 3 – Apply service factor

Load TypeService Factor
Uniform1.0
Moderate shock1.25 – 1.50
Heavy shock1.75 – 2.0

Step 4- Matching frame dimensions for NMRV turbine gearbox
