Re: Worm Gear Gearbox
I've read SDP's technical section and I still cannot find any information for worm gears. Even if the gear always breaks before the worm, the calculations are not comparable because the number of meshing teeth is very different and worm gears often have a sort of concave curve in the tooth to increase mesh that further changes the mechanics.
