  • Abstract
    A unique application of worm gearing to electro-mechanical shaft assembly servos is shown, including a survey of basic requirements, and a comparison of alternate configurations. Possible application of mass production techniques to small lot quantities through design standardization is described. The savings in enginerring effort by the selection of standard components having predictable characteristics such as frequency response, backlash, life, etc., are outlined; and additional savings are described, brought about by the use of pre-printed vellums.
