Over 125 years have elapsed since John Holroyd & Co. Ltd started to produce machine tools and gears and throughout this period the name Holroyd has been associated with the highest quality in both of these fields.
In the production of worm gearing the unique Holroyd gear form is widely respected for its performance and reliability in a wide variety of drives, ranging from the screw down mechanisms in steel mills to the motion actuators of robots used in the construction of microchips.
To improve the performance of wormwheel hobbing machines, Renold developed the Precision Dual Lead Backlash Adjustable Wormgear Form which is now widely used in rotary tables, cutter drives and machine tool positioning mechanisms.
