Lenze g500-W Helical Worm Right-Angle Geared Motors
The Lenze g500-W Series (featured model: g500-W110/m550-P80M4 0.75 kW IE3) is Lenze's compact and cost-effective right-angle helical worm geared motor platform, engineered for smooth, low-vibration, and ultra-quiet drive operation. Combining a helical primary gear stage with a high-ratio worm gear stage, g500-W gearboxes deliver high single-stage reduction capabilities in lightweight aluminum housings, covering output torques up to 110 Nm across 2 main sizes (g500-W45 and g500-W110). Matched with modern **Lenze m550 IE3 Premium Efficiency Three-Phase Motors** (or Lenze Smart Motors), g500-W right-angle geared motors provide 100% direct 1-to-1 mechanical replacement for legacy **Lenze GSS Series** gearmotors in light-duty conveyors, packaging systems, stage equipment, and food handling lines.
