WDA-WDS Series Universal Motor-Flange Worm Gear Reducer<\/h2>\n

The WDA-WDS Series is the motor-flange-equipped counterpart of the WA-WS range: a universal-housing worm gear reducer<\/strong> with a B5\/B14 IEC motor flange pre-machined on the most common input faces. WDA<\/strong> positions the motor below (A-type) and WDS<\/strong> positions it above (S-type), but the universal casting lets fitters switch between orientations on site by simply unbolting and repositioning the motor. This reorientation capability, combined with the bolt-on motor convenience and zero-coupling drivetrain, makes the WDA-WDS the most flexible single-stage drive package in the WP range. Thirteen frame sizes (WP40–WP250), ratios 5:1 to 60:1, output torques up to 3,025 N·m.<\/p>\n

Versatile Applications<\/h2>\n

Floor-Level Conveyor Drives (WDA)<\/h3>\n

Belt and chain conveyors in distribution centres, mines, and food plants typically position the motor below the reducer on the floor or a low bracket. The WDA mounts with the motor flange pointing downward, and the motor bolts on directly — no coupling, no belt, no alignment ritual. Frame sizes WP80–WP175 cover the speed and torque range most conveyor head-shaft drives operate in. Equipment integrators for Interroll and Hytrol platforms use the WDA as their default right angle worm gearbox<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Top-Entry Machine Drives (WDS)<\/h3>\n

Case packers, palletisers, and shrink-tunnel drives in packaging lines often position the motor above the gearbox to keep the floor area clear for product flow. The WDS orientation places the motor flange above the worm centreline, and the output shaft drives horizontally into the machine mechanism. At 20:1 to 30:1, the self-locking worm gearbox<\/strong> property holds the mechanism during product changeovers.<\/p>\n

Specifications<\/h2>\n

Data at 1,500 r\/min, continuous duty. WDA and WDS share identical torque, efficiency, and bearing data. All dimensions match the speed reducer gearbox<\/a> platform. contact us<\/a> for full drawing packages.<\/p>\n

Universal housing with A-type (below) and S-type (above) motor flange positions<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Engineering Details<\/h2>\n

The WDA-WDS uses the same universal grey cast-iron housing as the W and WD models, with B5\/B14 IEC motor flanges machined on six planes. The input bore is h6-tolerance with a parallel keyway. The output is a solid dual-end shaft with foot pads on two perpendicular faces. All internals — 20CrMnTi worm shaft, ZCuSn10Pb1 bronze wheel, tapered roller bearings, double-lipped NBR seals — are identical to every other single-stage WP variant of the same frame. An optional AS-type support bracket and TV-type motor bracket are available for installations with heavy motors or high-vibration environments.<\/p>\n

Components and Spare Parts<\/h2>\n

Every wear component inside this reducer is available as an individual spare part from our Condell Park, NSW warehouse, enabling targeted replacement rather than full-unit swap. Full parts commonality across the entire WP single-stage range. One spare-parts order covers every housing variant.<\/p>\n

Customer Reviews<\/h2>\n
\n
★★★★★<\/span><\/p>\n

The WDA is our standard conveyor drive reducer. Motor bolts on below, universal housing means we can reposition later if the conveyor route changes. One SKU, every layout.<\/p>\n

★★★★☆<\/span><\/p>\n

We mount the WDS on our top-entry case packers. Motor above, output horizontal into the case-pusher chain. The universal housing future-proofs the design if a customer needs a different motor angle.<\/p>\n

WDA WP80 at 20:1 on our auger-feed motors. Belt-free direct drive, self-locking for holding the auger during refills. Clean, compact, and the motor angle flexibility is a real bonus in our tight shed spaces.<\/p>\n

Oil and Maintenance<\/h2>\n

ISO VG 220–320 EP gear oil. When switching from WDA to WDS orientation (or vice versa), re-check the oil level against the sight glass and adjust the fill quantity. Apply yellow grease to the motor flange input bore and keyway before installing the motor to prevent corrosion bonding. First oil change at 100 hours, then 2,500 hours or annually.<\/p>\n

Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n
\n1. What is the difference between WDA and WDS? +<\/span><\/summary>\n
Both use the same universal housing with IEC motor flange. WDA<\/strong>: motor flange positioned below<\/strong> the worm axis (A-type). WDS<\/strong>: motor flange positioned above<\/strong> (S-type). Both can be reoriented on site.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n
\n2. How do the WDA-WDS differ from the DA-DS? +<\/span><\/summary>\n
The DA and DS have fixed-orientation housings<\/strong>. The WDA and WDS have universal housings<\/strong> with flange faces on six planes. Internally, gear pairs, bearings, and seals are identical per frame.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n
\n3. Can I switch a WDA to WDS orientation on site? +<\/span><\/summary>\n
Yes. Unbolt the motor, reposition it on the upper flange face, and re-torque. Adjust the oil level for the new orientation.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n
\n4. What motor support options are available for heavy motors? +<\/span><\/summary>\n
For motors above 5.5 kW, an optional TV-type motor support bracket<\/strong> transfers the motor weight to the machine base, reducing the cantilever load on the worm-shaft bearing.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n
\n5. Are WDA-WDS worm wheels interchangeable with other models? +<\/span><\/summary>\n
Yes, 100 %. Every WP single-stage model of the same frame size uses the identical worm wheel, bearings, and seals.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n
