0.1 Backlash Single Axis Slew Drive For Solar Tracking System Or
Satellite Antenna
Satellite Antenna Slewing Drive Description
The worm drive gearbox is suitable for applications which demand
slow rotation with a continuous or cyclical movement capable of
handling combined loads. The product is with standard dimensions
for coupling an electric or hydraulic motor as well as coupling a
whole system to equipment.
Due to its compactness, high rigidity and other mentioned
advantages, a worm drive system is used in varying equipment such
as mobile assembly platforms, satellite system, hydraulic loading
cranes on haulage vehicles, small marine cranes, extendable
rotating ladders, in wheel units of large marine portal
transporters.
A slew worm drive system is a compactly constructed unit which
consists of a slewing ring, base plate and worm. This unit brings
the advantages of a slewing ring and a worm into one unit.

Advantages
1. Rotation 360 degrees
2. Connection of a driving motor from the left or right side
3. During installation, it is not necessary to adjust the gearing
clearance; this is already set by the producer before factory
4. Simple installation and low maintenance
5. Rational space utilization
6. The gear is self-locking; therefore a brake is not necessary
7. Easy and fluent method of starting and stopping
