CHML 040 Worm Gearbox with Torque Limiter (Ø18 mm output shaft)

Worm Gearboxes

CHML 040 — the CHM 040 worm gearbox with a built-in torque limiter on the output: when the load exceeds the setting the limiter slips and protects the gearbox and the machine. The limiter runs in the oil bath and is maintenance free; it is adjusted with the external ring nut to suit your application. Hollow output shaft with the standard 18 mm bore; gearbox dimensions are those of the CHM 040, the ring nut excluded (limiter dimensions: L 55, DR 45, R M30x1,5, D 18, W 26 mm). Aluminium housing, filled for life with synthetic oil — no oil changes, no maintenance. Supplied in the universal position — it can be mounted in any orientation.

Supplied without motor. Fits IEC 56 or 63 or 71 motors as the CHM 040.

How to pick from the table: the ratio sets the output speed (shown for a 4-pole motor at 1400 r/min); choose the flange that matches your motor. For the rated powers and torques of the gear train see the CHM 040 page — the limiter is set below them to the torque your machine can take; tell us the setting you need when ordering.

Product Information

Motor pole count

All table figures assume a 4-pole motor (1400 r/min input) — the standard choice for most applications. A 2-pole motor (2800 r/min) doubles the output speed and a 6-pole motor (900 r/min) reduces it, and the power and torque ratings change with them — if you're running anything other than 4-pole, contact us and we'll size it for you.

Torque limiter

The limiter sits in the output hub: above the set torque it slips instead of passing the overload on to the gears or the driven machine — useful on conveyors that can jam, indexing drives and anything a stall would damage. Set it with the ring nut (R thread) to your application; made in three sizes, 040, 050 and 063.
