Power Saving / Energy Conservation by replacing Worm with Planetary
» Electric Motor Efficiency = 85%
» Overall Coupling Efficiency = 0.98 * 0.98 = 96%
» Worm Gearbox Efficiency = 50 – 70 % (max)
» Planetary Gearbox Efficiency = 96 – 98 % (max)
» Overall Drive System Efficiency using Worm Gearbox = 0.85 * 0.7 * 0.96 = 57.12 %
» Overall Drive System Efficiency using Planetary Gearbox = 0.85 * 0.98 * 0.96 = 79.96%
» Overall Efficiency Difference = 22. 84%
