The drive wheel worm gear transmission is designed and built by Amada to
provide high efficiency speed reduction, which requires no external
cooling, to deliver more power to the large diameter drive flange which
is mounted on the drive wheel. This flange ensures that this developed
torque is transferred to the blade with no strobing, enabling the
machine to efficiently cut high alloys as well as free machining
materials. The entire drive assembly up to the wheel is sealed against
chips or cutting fluid to for long maintenance free operation. |
