The same physical specification carries radically different codes between Italian NMRV, Chinese WP, German Nord SK and Japanese Mitsubishi SCWS catalogues. Procurement engineers managing mixed-vintage and mixed-brand installed bases need to translate fluently in both directions: from a legacy nameplate to a modern equivalent, and from an engineering specification to the family code each supplier expects. The article below provides the decoder rules for the four major families, a cross-family frame size translation matrix, a suffix code chart, and five mistakes that account for most translation errors.<\/p>\n<p><!-- CODE ANATOMY SNAPSHOT \u2014 annotated segments at top, unique visual --><\/p>\n<div style=\"background: #fefce8;

line-height: 1.75; margin: 0 0 14px; color: #1f2937;\">A worm gear reducer catalogue code is the procurement engineer&#8217;s primary handle on a specific physical configuration. Get the code right and the supplier ships the matching unit; get it wrong by a single character and the delivered hardware mismatches mounting hole patterns, output shaft diameter, motor flange size or accessory provisions. The cost of a mismatched code is not just the unit value \u2014 it includes shipping back, restocking fees, project schedule slip, and the labour to identify and order the correct replacement.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: clamp(14px, 1.8vw + 9px, 17px); line-height: 1.75; margin: 0 0 14px; color: #1f2937;\">Each worm gear reducer catalogue family encodes the same set of engineering attributes \u2014 frame size, ratio, motor mount, output type, accessory pack \u2014 but in different positional and notation conventions. NMRV separates segments with slashes and uses centre-distance frame numbers (the &#8220;075&#8221; means 75 mm centre distance). WP separates with no delimiters and uses sized model numbers (the &#8220;70&#8221; in WPA70 means a 70-frame, with no direct millimetre meaning). SK uses two-digit codes (SK 12, SK 22) where the number progresses through the catalogue rather than encoding any single physical dimension. SCWS uses the metric centre distance directly (SCWS 175 means 175 mm centre distance).<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: clamp(14px, 1.8vw + 9px, 17px); line-height: 1.75; margin: 0 0 14px; color: #1f2937;\">Translating worm gear reducer codes across families means understanding what each segment encodes in each system, then mapping the engineering attribute (not the literal character) to the equivalent character in the target catalogue.

NMRV is Motovario&#8217;s branded naming; RV is the broader industry name for the Italian aluminum centre-distance pattern. Frame sizes, ratios and mounting standards are identical between the two. Sourcing from suppliers using different naming (e.g. RV from a Chinese factory vs NMRV from Italy) generally delivers compatible hardware on like-for-like specifications.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 14px; padding: clamp(11px, 1.4vw + 5px, 16px) clamp(13px, 1.6vw + 6px, 18px); background: #ecfccb; border-left: 3px solid #ca8a04; border-radius: 0 6px 6px 0;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 6px; font-size: clamp(14px, 1.7vw + 8px, 17px);\"><strong style=\"color: #365314;\">Q: How do I read a code I cannot identify against any of the four families covered above?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0; font-size: clamp(14px, 1.6vw + 8px, 16px); line-height: 1.65; color: #1f2937;\">A: Other worm gear reducer catalogue families exist \u2014 Bonfiglioli VF, SEW S, Sumitomo Cyclo HE, STM RD, etc. Each follows similar segment logic (family + size + ratio + suffix). Cross-reference the unknown code segment-by-segment against the manufacturer&#8217;s catalogue or contact the supplier directly. The frame size segment is usually the easiest to identify because it correlates with measurable physical dimensions on the existing unit. Once frame size is matched, ratio and motor suffix follow.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 14px; padding: clamp(11px, 1.4vw + 5px, 16px) clamp(13px, 1.6vw + 6px, 18px); background: #ecfccb; border-left: 3px solid #ca8a04; border-radius: 0 6px 6px 0;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 6px; font-size: clamp(14px, 1.7vw + 8px, 17px);\"><strong style=\"color: #365314;\">Q: My nameplate shows partial code only \u2014 how do I reconstruct the full specification?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0; font-size: clamp(14px, 1.6vw + 8px, 16px); line-height: 1.65; color: #1f2937;\">A: Identify the worm gear reducer family first (often visible), then measure centre distance from input shaft to output shaft to determine frame size. Output shaft diameter and motor flange dimensions narrow down the rest. For complete reconstruction, measure: centre distance, output shaft \u00d8 and length, motor flange \u00d8 and bolt circle, total housing length, foot mounting hole pattern. Send measurements to the supplier with photos for catalogue cross-reference. A correctly reconstructed worm gear reducer specification matches the original on physical dimensions even if the original code is fully lost.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 14px; padding: clamp(11px, 1.4vw + 5px, 16px) clamp(13px, 1.6vw + 6px, 18px); background: #ecfccb; border-left: 3px solid #ca8a04; border-radius: 0 6px 6px 0;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 6px; font-size: clamp(14px, 1.7vw + 8px, 17px);\"><strong style=\"color: #365314;\">Q: Why do some catalogues use single-start vs multi-start worm encoding in the ratio segment?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0; font-size: clamp(14px, 1.6vw + 8px, 16px); line-height: 1.65; color: #1f2937;\">A: NMRV and SCWS encode the worm-start count in the ratio segment (&#8220;4\/100&#8221; = 4-start worm, ratio 100) because the start count affects efficiency, self-locking and tooth profile \u2014 engineering attributes that change the unit&#8217;s behaviour even at the same ratio. WP and SK encode ratio only; the start count is implicit from the ratio range. For worm gear reducer applications where self-locking matters (low-ratio lifting drives), explicitly specify single-start in the procurement specification regardless of which family code applies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 14px; padding: clamp(11px, 1.4vw + 5px, 16px) clamp(13px, 1.6vw + 6px, 18px); background: #ecfccb; border-left: 3px solid #ca8a04; border-radius: 0 6px 6px 0;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 6px; font-size: clamp(14px, 1.7vw + 8px, 17px);\"><strong style=\"color: #365314;\">Q: Can I substitute a smaller numerical frame across families if the power class matches?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0; font-size: clamp(14px, 1.6vw + 8px, 16px); line-height: 1.65; color: #1f2937;\">A: Numerical match across worm gear reducer families is not a reliable substitution rule. NMRV 075 and WP 75 differ in service factor assumption and bronze wheel material, so the rated power at the same numerical size can differ by 30%. Use the power-class translation matrix above as the primary mapping, then verify torque and centre distance directly against the original specification. For critical applications, request a side-by-side dimensional comparison drawing from the supplier before committing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 14px; padding: clamp(11px, 1.4vw + 5px, 16px) clamp(13px, 1.6vw + 6px, 18px); background: #ecfccb; border-left: 3px solid #ca8a04; border-radius: 0 6px 6px 0;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 6px; font-size: clamp(14px, 1.7vw + 8px, 17px);\"><strong style=\"color: #365314;\">Q: How do I specify a worm gear reducer code that includes accessories like brakes or torque arms?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0; font-size: clamp(14px, 1.6vw + 8px, 16px); line-height: 1.65; color: #1f2937;\">A: Most families append accessory codes after the main code with a &#8220;+&#8221; or &#8220;-&#8221; separator. NMRV uses &#8220;+TA&#8221; for torque arm, &#8220;+ENC&#8221; for encoder. SK uses &#8220;+BR&#8221; for brake, &#8220;+VL&#8221; for motor lantern. WP and SCWS typically order accessories as separate line items rather than embedding in the main code. Verify the supplier&#8217;s accessory naming convention from their current catalogue rather than assuming consistency across vintages \u2014 accessory codes change between catalogue editions more often than main codes do.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: linear-gradient(135deg, #365314 0%, #4d7c0f 100%); color: #ffffff; padding: clamp(28px, 4vw, 48px); border-radius: 8px; margin: 36px 0 24px; text-align: center;\">\n<h2 style=\"color: #ffffff; border: none; padding: 0; margin: 0 0 14px; font-size: clamp(20px, 2.6vw + 8px, 28px); font-weight: bold; line-height: 1.3;\">Need a Catalogue Code Cross-Reference?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"color: rgba(255,255,255,0.92); font-size: clamp(14px, 1.5vw + 8px, 17px); line-height: 1.6; margin: 0 auto 22px; max-width: 720px;\">Send the legacy worm gear reducer code, nameplate photo, or physical dimensions.
