Hydro-Mec is an Italian manufacturer known for producing high-quality, modular gearboxes suited for demanding industrial applications. With a focus on flexibility, reliability, and European manufacturing standards, Hydro-Mec gear units are engineered for performance in automation, energy, food processing, and packaging industries among others.This worm gearbox model, Hydro-Mec 050, is a reliable and efficient solution designed to deliver torque transmission in compact spaces. Built with a durable aluminum housing and a stainless steel output shaft (Ø25 mm), it supports numerous industrial needs. Below are its key features, benefits, and suitable applications:
• Compact design with a gear size of 050 makes it ideal for space-constrained installations without compromising performance

• 26:1 gear ratio provides significant speed reduction, enabling high-torque transmission for applications that require force over speed

• Input interface 80B14 ensures compatibility with standard IEC motors, allowing easy integration into existing systems

• Hollow output shaft Ø25 mm (stainless steel) allows for easy connection directly to machine shafts, reducing the need for couplings and improving system rigidity

• 69% efficiency ensures acceptable energy transfer while minimizing losses typical for worm gear units

• Stainless steel hollow shaft offers enhanced corrosion resistance, making it suitable for hygienic or outdoor environments such as food production or marine applications

• Aluminium housing provides a lightweight solution with excellent heat dissipation and corrosion resistance over time

• Input shaft Ø19 mm allows for external drive coupling where direct motor mounting isn't preferred

• BCD input 100 mm and BCD output 94 mm fit standard flange interfaces, streamlining installation and compatibility

• Optimal for mechanical lifting systems, automated conveyors, packaging equipment, and process machinery where compact, durable torque transmission is critical
This gear unit represents a balance between performance, modularity, and cost-efficiency—ideal for engineers and specialists seeking customizable solutions for dynamic motion systems.
