CHALLENGE THE STATUS QUO: THE UNIQUE BENEFITS OF ATLANTA SERVO WORM GEARBOXES

Planetary gearboxes are often promoted as a universal solution; however, for several applications, the ATLANTA precision worm gear configuration offers unparalleled competitive advantages, which translate directly into numerous operational benefits.

Normally, worm gearboxes are not considered highly efficient when compared to planetary gearboxes. In the specific case of ATLANTA, the choice of materials and the quality of the machining allow for stable efficiencies over time that are comparable to those of planetary gearboxes, especially at high speeds and under full load.

Claims regarding “low cycle life” or “poor efficiency” of the worm gear are outdated information or only applicable to low-quality products.

High torque density

Thanks to their operating principle, ATLANTA servo worm gearboxes handle high loads and torques in a significantly smaller casing compared to a planetary gearbox of equal capacity.

High gear ratio in a single stage

While maintaining remarkable mechanical simplicity, ATLANTA servo worm gearboxes can achieve high ratios (up to 52:1) with just a single stage, minimizing the number of moving components and thereby reducing cumulative backlash.

Low-noise operation and durability

In ATLANTA servo worm gearboxes, the meshing between the worm and the ring gear is smooth, reducing noise and the impact of vibrations, which are essential aspects for applications in sensitive environments or for increasing the service life of the system.

Reversible, not self-locking

Hi speed ATLANTA servo gearboxes, characterized by high efficiency, DO NOT exhibit the self-locking effect and are therefore reversible; this feature ensures continuous precise and dynamic regulation of the system, distinguishing them from normal worm gearboxes.

Advantages of ATLANTA Servo Worm Gearboxes

  • Maximum efficiency and energy saving: our high efficiency is stable over time and comparable to planetary gearboxes; this means a reduction in energy waste
  • Consistent precision over time: thanks to materials and reduced tolerances, the backlash of ATLANTA servo gearboxes remains minimal and constant even after years of operation
  • Design freedom: achieve the exact level of precision you need (≤ 1, ≤ 2 or ≤ 5 arcmin) with the certainty of high torsional rigidity
  • Total adaptability: a wide range of coupling options are available for any servo motor on the market and numerous options on the output shaft to easily connect to pinions or other transmission elements; ATLANTA servo gearboxes can also be installed in any position
  • Total reliability in every context: ATLANTA provides certified versions to operate safely and conform to requirements in specific environments (ATEX, food grade, vacuum, high temperatures, etc.), protecting your investment and ensuring operational continuity even in the most challenging conditions
