A patented locking device is utilized to make high efficiency wormgears self-locking. Compared to standard products on the market, the SGX Series high-efficiency gearbox can achieve 2-3 times fewer revolutions. Motorized applications can be optimized using SGX Series High Efficiency wormgears for faster close times or reducing electric actuator frame size. Manual applications can be optimized to reduce the number of turns to operate, extending manually operated valve size and reducing installation and maintenance costs.
