KM Series Helical Hypoid Gear Reducer
Description
KM Series Helical Hypoid Gear Units are the latest generation of compact, high-efficiency gear reducers developed by NUODUN. Designed with advanced hypoid gear technology, the KM series delivers high torque density, smooth transmission, long service life, and superior energy efficiency compared to conventional worm gear reducers.
Featuring lightweight aluminum housing, high-strength alloy steel gears, multiple installation options, and compatibility with NMRV worm gear mounting dimensions, the KM series is ideal for a wide range of automation and power transmission applications.
Features
1. Hypoid Gear Drive with High Torque Output
Delivers large output torque with high transmission efficiency, making it suitable for demanding industrial applications.
2. Energy Saving & High Efficiency
Compared with worm gear units, hypoid gears reduce energy loss and enable smoother, quieter operation.
3. Lightweight & Corrosion-Free Housing
Manufactured from high-quality die-cast aluminum alloy, providing low weight, excellent thermal dissipation, and rust-free service life.
4. Smooth Operation & Low Noise
Stable running with minimal vibration, suitable for long-term continuous operation in harsh environments.
5. Compact Structure & Attractive Appearance
Small volume, easy installation, aesthetically clean exterior, and long operational life.
6. Wide Installation Flexibility
Supports all-round mounting positions (B3, B6, B7, etc.) and modular configurations.
7. NMRV Compatibility
Mounting dimensions compatible with NMRV worm gear reducers (except partial dimensions of NMRV050 vs. KM28).
8. Modular & Multi-Structure Options
Multiple gear stages (2-stage & 3-stage) and ratios support diverse industrial applications.

Service Factor (fs) Selection Guide
Proper service factor ensures gearbox life & reliability.
Determine fs Based On:
- Daily operating hours
- Start/stop frequency
- Load type (light/medium/heavy)
- Inertia & acceleration factor
Example:
- Inertia acceleration factor = 2.5
- Operation = 14 hours/day
- Start-stop = 200 times/hour
From the service chart:
fs = 1.48
Therefore, the selected gearbox must have
fs (catalog) ≥ 1.48
Lubrication & Maintenance
1. First Oil Change
After 300 hours (running-in period)
2. Regular Inspection
- Check oil condition & level every 3000 hours or every 6 months
- Inspect oil seals and replace if leaking
- For IEC input types, check the elastic coupling
3. Periodic Replacement
- Replace mineral oil at least every 3 years
- Replace output shaft oil seals based on actual working conditions
4. Important Notice
If a failure occurs, do not disassemble — contact NUODUN support with:
- Model
- Serial number
- Operating hours
- Host machine type
- Failure description

FAQs
Yes. NUODUN’s core competitiveness lies in the synergistic advantage of “customization + system integration.” We support structural customization, torque customization, input flange customization, mounting interface customization, stroke customization and more for products such as planetary gearboxes, screw jacks, electric cylinders, and gearboxes. The typical lead time for standard non-standard customization is 7–20 days, while more complex engineered projects are usually delivered within 3–6 weeks.

Our engineering strength comes from long-term R&D investment, CAE simulation, lifetime calculation databases, modular design frameworks, and a mature testing/verification system. This ensures that every customized solution is not only manufacturable, but also reliable under real-world loads — balancing precision, durability, and cost efficiency.







Our products are widely used in photovoltaic manufacturing, semiconductor equipment, automotive production, metallurgy, logistics, medical devices, aerospace, stage automation, and industrial automation — especially where precision positioning, heavy loads, or long service life are required.
All products undergo type testing, torque testing, vibration testing, life testing, noise measurement, and precision inspection. Core components such as gears, screws, and bearings are produced using advanced machining, grinding, heat treatment, and automated assembly processes.
Yes. We offer remote technical support, installation guidance, troubleshooting, selection assistance, and long-term spare parts support for OEM/ODM partners.
