I have a customer who is currently using a 12DP worm gear made from 12L14. The load that this carries is 300lb. he would like to reduce the size of the worm gear in order to reduce the size of the gear housing. Can anyone tell me what the smallest dp & material configuration would be to handle the 300lb load?
