The worm gear, marked with code number K 32326, is an integral part of the Adriadiesel/Jugoturbina/Zgoda/Sulzer ZV40/48 diesel engine’s gear train, designed specifically to interface with the pinion shaft. This component enables the conversion of rotational motion into controlled mechanical output, often used to achieve high torque with compact design. Its unique helical structure allows for smooth meshing with the pinion, reducing noise and enhancing efficiency. Engineered for durability and precision, the worm gear is essential in supporting consistent power delivery in the engine’s operational cycle.
