General Description: The Series A Junior Worm Gear units are versatile mechanical drive solutions available in sizes 280 to 860, featuring a universal case design. They support multiple mounting positions and offer motorized or reducer versions with hollow output bores, requiring minimal maintenance due to lifetime lubrication.
Unit Designations: The document explains the coding system for unit designations, covering size, type, and additional features, including motor adaptors and mounting positions.
Ratings and Service Factors: Gear unit selection involves comparing actual loads with catalog ratings, using mechanical and thermal service factors to adjust for various operating conditions. Tables provide service factors for different prime movers and ambient temperatures.
Lubrication: Units are factory-filled with synthetic lubricant, eliminating routine maintenance. Special instructions are provided for low-speed or specific orientation operations.
Selection Procedure: A detailed selection procedure is provided, including load classification by application and moments of inertia considerations.
ATEX Compliance: The gear units comply with the ATEX Directive for use in potentially explosive atmospheres, with certification available for standard gearboxes and motors.
Product Range: The document lists various gear unit series, including worm gears, helical speed reducers, and right-angle drive units, each with specific features and applications.
Load Classification by Applications: Machinery and equipment are categorized based on load types: Uniform (U), Moderate shock (M), and Heavy shock (H), with examples provided.
Moments of Inertia: Detailed tables list moments of inertia for different gear ratios, crucial for understanding system dynamics.
Lubrication: Gear units are filled with Polyglycol-based synthetic lubricants, "Lubricated for Life," requiring no routine maintenance, with a list of approved lubricants for temperatures between 0°C and 40°C.
Selection Procedure for Motorised Units: Steps include determining the mechanical service factor, required output torque, and checking service factors and overhung loads, with an example provided.

Unit Size and Specifications: Detailed specifications for various unit sizes, including mechanical input power, output torque, thermal input power, efficiency, nominal ratio, and output speed.
Thermal Service Factors: Thermal service factor (Fd) and (Ft) are both 1.0 for 100% running time and 20ºC ambient temperature.
Required Power of Electric Motor: Calculated based on 62% gear unit efficiency, resulting in 45kW required motor power.
Overhung Loads and Momentary Overload Capacity: Procedures for checking overhung loads and calculating momentary overload capacity, with nominal output torque of 163Nm and maximum motor starting torque of 293Nm.
Allowable Output Torque Thermal Rating (Ttherm): Calculated as 442Nm, sufficient for an absorbed output torque of 134Nm.
Additional Features and Options: Details on additional features, mounting positions, and motor adaptors for different unit sizes and configurations.
Specifications: Detailed specifications for motor frame sizes and reducer series AJ, including dimensions for motor frame sizes (63, 71, 80, 90S/L) and reducer series AJ units (A0280 to A0860).
Procedures: Calculations for overhung load when mounting a sprocket or gear on a shaft, with recommendations for alternative mounting solutions if permissible loads are exceeded.
Norms and Recommendations: Permissible overhung loads vary with rotation direction, with recommendations to position sprockets or gears close to the gear unit case.
Key Formulas: Formula for calculating equivalent overhung load (P) in Newtons, involving power transmitted, shaft speed, pitch radius, and a factor.
Data Tables: Tables detailing overhung loads, axial thrust capacities, mechanical and thermal input power, output torque, and efficiency percentages for various nominal ratios and output speeds.
Critical Information: Maximum permissible overhung loads for single and double reduction units, with factors for different overhung members and efficiency percentages ranging from 9% to 94%.
Technical Document Summary:
1. Specifications: Detailed specifications for mechanical units, focusing on efficiency, mechanical input power, thermal input power, and output torque across various conditions.
2. Performance Data: Includes efficiency percentages, mechanical input power values, output torque, and thermal input power.
3. Dimensional Data: Comprehensive dimensional data for unit sizes (A0280 to A0860), detailing input and output shaft dimensions, flange and bolt hole positions, and measurements for single and double reduction units.
4. Recommendations and Best Practices: Recommendations include fan fittings and flexible installation options.
5. Additional Notes: Notes on standard configurations and optional features for different unit sizes.

SERIES AJ Gear unit selection is made by comparing actual loads with catalogue ratings. Catalogue ratings are based on a standard set of loading conditions, whereas actual load conditions vary according to type of application. Service Factors are therefore used to calculate an equivalent load to compare with catalogue ratings. i.e. Equivalent Load = Actual Load x Service Factor Two types of Service Factor must be considered:- Mechanical Service Factor Fm and Thermal Service Factors Ft, Fp and Fd Mechanical ratings and service factors Fm Table 1. Mechanical service factors Fm Mechanical ratings...
