Q7:  What are the advantages of your company? (Price, special accessories, product quality)
* The company’s main products are electric actuators, which are equipped with valve products. Our company was established for 13 years. We founded the (Changneng) brand electric actuators and later founded the (AUKOMA) brand high-end series electric actuators. After more than 10 years of market operation, the product quality and market sales are stable, and we have a certain reputation in the domestic industry. Our brand is medium in China, and our product series is relatively comprehensive. We have Z, Q, CND, AK series products that can compete with domestic first-line products, and AK series products that can replace international brands. There are great advantages in cost performance.
Let’s talk about what this electric actuator is used for. The electric actuator controls the opening and closing of the valve, and the valve controls the opening and closing of the pipeline. Valves include manual valves, electric valves, pneumatic valves, electro-hydraulic valves, etc. With the improvement of industrial automation, more and more automatic control valves such as electric valves or pneumatic valves are used on pipelines that originally used manual valves. Electric valves require our electric actuators, which means the actuators are the brains of electric valves. After using electric actuators, the valves can be switched on and off through on-site electric buttons or remote computer systems, thereby controlling the on and off of the pipelines.

Q8:  Does the price change every month or is it fixed?
*The price is fixed. Without special reasons such as a sharp increase in raw materials, the price will generally not change.

Q9:  Is it in stock or produced after orders? If the production is after the order, how long will it take to produce? Delivery time?
*Export products have different requirements for materials, packaging, etc. They will be produced according to orders.
 *Generally, it takes about 10 days for less than 50 units and 20 days for less than 100 units. The production cycle of AK high-end series will be slightly extended.

Q10: What material is this product made of?
*The product has 2 types of materials: iron shell and aluminum shell. The aluminum shell is small and the small size of the AK intelligent series is aluminum shell, and the conventional model and large size are cast iron. The large size has a large output torque, and the cast iron shell is used because cast iron has a strong pressure bearing capacity.

Q11: Are we currently doing OEM with other brands?
*We do OEM for several domestic units, and we aslo accpet OEM oreders.

Q12:  Have we done any relatively large and CHINAMFG enterprise projects?
*Our products are used in major domestic steel mills, power plants, water plants (sewage, tap water), coal mine water treatment, coal mine gas extraction, petroleum and petrochemicals, etc.

Q13:  Does this product have a service life?
*Yes, the service life is related to the switching frequency of the valve. The valve is installed on the pipeline, and the electric actuator is a device that controls the valve switch. If the valve switching frequency is very high, the actuator will be used more frequently, and the internal gears and turbines, worms, nuts, etc. will have certain wear, but it is much longer than the service life of the valve. Some valves on pipelines need to be replaced after a few years. Generally, the actuator will be replaced at the same time as the valve. At present, our products are used on pipelines, and many actuators from more than 10 years ago are also in normal use.

Q14:  Can parts be replaced if the product is damaged?
*It can be replaced. Generally, the limit switch that controls the valve opening and closing is a high-frequency component and may need to be replaced.

Q15:  How much does the factory produce per month?
*1,200-1500 sets per month.

Q16:  What is the payment methods accepted?
*We accpet TT, Paypal, West Union, World First, Alipay, Wechat Pay etc /* October 22, 2571 15:47:17 */(()=>{function d(e,r){var a,o={};try{e&&e.split(“,”).forEach(function(e,t){e&&(a=e.match(/(.*?):(.*)$/))&&1

Is it Possible to Reverse the Direction of a Worm Gearbox?

Yes, it is possible to reverse the direction of a worm gearbox by changing the orientation of either the input or output shaft. However, reversing the direction of a worm gearbox can have some implications that need to be considered:

• Efficiency: Reversing the direction of a worm gearbox can potentially affect its efficiency. Worm gearboxes are typically more efficient in one direction of rotation due to the design of the worm and worm wheel.
• Backlash: Reversing the direction of rotation might lead to increased backlash or play in the gearbox, which can impact precision and smooth operation.
• Lubrication: Depending on the gearbox’s design, reversing the direction could affect lubrication distribution and lead to uneven wear on the gear teeth.
• Load: Reversing the direction might also impact the gearbox’s load-carrying capacity, especially if it’s designed for predominantly one-way operation.
• Noise and Vibration: Direction reversal can sometimes result in increased noise and vibration due to changes in gear engagement and meshing behavior.

If you need to reverse the direction of a worm gearbox, it’s advisable to consult the gearbox manufacturer’s guidelines and recommendations. They can provide insights into whether the specific gearbox model is suitable for reversible operation and any precautions or adjustments needed to ensure proper functioning.

How to Calculate the Input and Output Speeds of a Worm Gearbox?

Calculating the input and output speeds of a worm gearbox involves understanding the gear ratio and the principles of gear reduction. Here’s how you can calculate these speeds:

• Input Speed: The input speed (N₁) is the speed of the driving gear, which is the worm gear in this case. It is usually provided by the manufacturer or can be measured directly.
• Output Speed: The output speed (N₂) is the speed of the driven gear, which is the worm wheel. To calculate the output speed, use the formula:

  N₂ = N₁ / (Z₁ * i)

Where:
N₂ = Output speed (rpm)
N₁ = Input speed (rpm)
Z₁ = Number of teeth on the worm gear
i = Gear ratio (ratio of the number of teeth on the worm gear to the number of threads on the worm)

It’s important to note that worm gearboxes are designed for gear reduction, which means that the output speed is lower than the input speed. Additionally, the efficiency of the gearbox, friction, and other factors can affect the actual output speed. Calculating the input and output speeds is crucial for understanding the performance and capabilities of the worm gearbox in a specific application.

What is a Worm Gearbox and How Does It Work?

A worm gearbox, also known as a worm gear reducer, is a mechanical device used to transmit rotational motion and torque between non-parallel shafts. It consists of a worm screw and a worm wheel, both of which have helical teeth. The worm screw resembles a threaded cylinder, while the worm wheel is a gear with teeth that mesh with the worm screw.

The working principle of a worm gearbox involves the interaction between the worm screw and the worm wheel. When the worm screw is rotated, its helical teeth engage with the teeth of the worm wheel. As the worm screw rotates, it translates the rotational motion into a perpendicular motion, causing the worm wheel to rotate. This perpendicular motion allows the worm gearbox to achieve a high gear reduction ratio, making it suitable for applications that require significant speed reduction.

One of the key features of a worm gearbox is its ability to provide a high gear reduction ratio in a compact design. However, due to the sliding nature of the meshing teeth, worm gearboxes may exhibit higher friction and lower efficiency compared to other types of gearboxes. Therefore, they are often used in applications where efficiency is not the primary concern but where high torque and speed reduction are essential, such as conveyor systems, elevators, automotive steering systems, and certain industrial machinery.
