WGR Rotation Drives

The WGR Rotation Drives consist of a worm shaft and gearing system with an integral pinion shaft, which will engage with any matching spur gear slewing ring to effect rotation. Both Metric and US spur gears can be supplied.

Two basic sizes have been developed and found successful application in the mobile crane industry, and simple materials handling devices.

  • The output is usually an integral pinion-shaft matched to a specific slew ring gear/ application and as such these units are only imported to order
  • QCB UK stocks the WGR 72 wit a stub shaft output to allow any pinion to be added
  • All subject to factory verification of suitability
  • Maximum output speed 16 rpm
  • Available in left or right hand motor drive side configuration

Input shaft options

Standard stock units are imported with 25mm input shaft for standard hydraulic motors.

ø12mm, ø14mm, ø16mm, ø20mm and a 6B Spline are optional


Installation and maintenance

Transportation and general handling

  • Avoid impact damage which may damage gear teeth and the factory preset backlash.
  • Clean the rotation drove using any cold solvent before installation

Mounting bolts

  • Grade 10.9 bolts with hardened washers is recommended
  • The use of spring washers is not recommended
  • Check bolt tightness after 100 hours of operation, thereafter at least annually during routine maintenance.

Lubrication

  • WGR rotation drives are factory filled with a lithium base EP grease suitable for operation in environments from -20°C to +120°C
  • The grease should be refreshed every 3 months by injection through one of the 2 grease ports on the housing, with old grease being expelled through the other, the choice of which will depend on the orientation of the unit in situ. The amount required is tabulated below.
  • Suitable grease equivalents include Total Multis EP 0 and Mobilux EP 0
