Description
MODEL: Kimpo KAE60 (Price is negotiable)
Kimpo KAE60 is a worm gear reducers with specific Flanged mounting. It is an industrial-grade speed reducer designed for high-torque applications where spatial constraints require a right-angle drive. It is widely recognised for its self-locking characteristic, which is a critical safety feature in lifting and holding applications.
2. Key Features
The KV Series is engineered for reliability in light-to-moderate industrial environments. Its main features include:
-
Self-Locking Mechanism: Higher reduction ratios naturally prevent the output shaft from driving the input shaft, ensuring the load stays in place when the motor is off.
-
Precision Machined Worm: The worm shaft is typically made of hardened alloy steel, ground to a high finish to reduce friction and heat.
-
High-Quality Bronze Wheel: Uses phosphor bronze (ALBC3) for the worm wheel, providing excellent wear resistance and longer service life compared to standard brass.
-
Compact Right-Angle Drive: Ideal for machinery with limited footprint, allowing the motor to be positioned 90° to the output load.
-
Enhanced Sealing: Equipped with high-grade oil seals to prevent leakage, making it suitable for both horizontal and vertical mounting without losing lubrication.
3. Technical Specifications
The KAE series follows standard industrial sizing (40 through 250), representing the center distance (in mm) between the worm and the wheel.

4. Common Applications
The KAE Series is specifically recommended for:
-
Conveyor Belts: Where precise starts and stops are required.
-
Industrial Mixers: For handling viscous materials that require high initial torque.
-
Packaging Machines: Where the right-angle configuration saves floor space.
-
Lifting Equipment: Small-scale hoists or adjustable workbenches where the self-locking feature adds a layer of mechanical safety.
