✅ Core Features & Unique Benefits
🔗 Worm-Direction Tail Output Shaft — The Key Differentiator
The defining feature of the NRV-E075 is its additional tail output shaft that extends in the same direction as the worm shaft axis. This second output enables simultaneous drive of two independent loads from a single gearbox — a primary application drive via the main output bore and a secondary auxiliary drive (encoder, tachometer, small pump, or fan) via the tail shaft.
🌿 Heavy Chain + SCADA Integration
At 4.0 kW chain input, the NRV-E075 is the standard choice for heavily loaded agricultural chain drives requiring SCADA rotation monitoring — jam detection, bin-fill monitoring, and throughput tracking.
◯ Same Torque as Standard NRV075
The NRV-E075 delivers identical maximum output torque (6,603 N·m) to the standard NRV075, confirming that the tail shaft adds zero performance penalty on the main output. The tail shaft is driven directly off the worm shaft end, not the output stage.
🅆 Encoder & Feedback Ready
The tail output shaft provides a direct connection point for rotary encoders, tachogenerators, and pulse generators that monitor worm shaft speed in closed-loop motion control systems, eliminating external encoder brackets and coupling hardware.
🚫 IP54 — Dual-Seal Integrity
Both the main output bore and the tail shaft exit are sealed with dual-contact lip seals, maintaining IP54 protection across all mounting orientations without oil weeping at either shaft interface.
🏭 Application Scenarios
🌿 Heavy Agricultural Monitoring
High-torque NMRV-E075 worm gearbox for heavy auger and elevator drives where the tail shaft mounts a rotation sensor confirming grain flow in real time and triggering an alarm if the auger jams.
💧 Mixing Tank Level-Speed Control
Worm gear reducer with tail output shaft for industrial mixing tanks where a tail-shaft encoder feeds back to a variable-frequency controller, maintaining constant tip-speed regardless of fluid viscosity.
🏗 Construction Material Monitoring
Aluminium worm gearbox with tail shaft for concrete mixer and aggregate conveyor drives where the tail-shaft tachometer provides real-time rotation monitoring to the plant SCADA system.
⚙ Servo-Assisted Automation
NMRV-E075 worm gearbox tail shaft for servo-assisted positioning stages where the tail encoder provides position feedback in semi-closed loop control, reducing servo drive cost versus full servo gearbox solutions.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
What is the tail output shaft on the EP-NRV-E075 and how is it different from the main output?
The tail shaft on the NRV-E075 exits the housing in the worm-direction axis (opposite end of the worm shaft), while the main output bore is perpendicular (90 degrees) to the worm axis. The tail shaft is driven off the worm shaft end and is used for encoder mounting, tachometer connection, or light auxiliary drive, while the main output delivers the full 6,603 N·m load torque.
Does the tail shaft reduce the main output torque of the NRV-E075?
No. The tail shaft draws only the small torque needed for its connected device. The main output retains the full 6,603 N·m rating, identical to the standard NRV075.
What is the input shaft specification for the NRV-E075?
The NRV-E075 has a solid keyed input shaft (no IEC flange). The shaft diameter matches the equivalent NMRV075 bore input diameter. It accepts chain sprockets, belt pulleys, and rigid couplings. A bilateral (double-ended) input shaft is standard; single-end configuration available on request.
What encoder types can be mounted on the NRV-E075 tail shaft?
Any standard keyed rotary encoder with the matching bore diameter can be mounted on the NRV-E075 tail shaft: incremental (5V–24V, 100–10,000 PPR), SSI absolute, or resolver-type. Confirm the encoder bore size and keyway before ordering. The tail shaft key dimensions match the catalogue DZ shaft specification for NMRV-E075.
Can the NRV-E075 be used for closed-loop speed control in a chain-driven system?
Yes. The NRV-E075 is the ideal solution for chain-driven systems requiring closed-loop speed feedback. The chain drives the solid input shaft; the main output drives the load; and the tail shaft mounts an encoder that feeds speed/position data back to the controller. This eliminates the need for a separate encoder mounting bracket or a second independent encoder drive arrangement.

“Our sugarcane conveyor chain drives use NRV-E075 units. The tail-shaft rotation sensors feed our plant SCADA and we receive instant alerts if any conveyor section stops during harvest. The system has prevented two costly conveyor pile-up incidents this season.”
Barry F. — Maintenance Manager, Sugarcane Farm 🇦🇺 Australia (QLD)
★★★★★
“We use the NRV-E075 on our mobile concrete plant chain drive with a tail-shaft tachometer monitoring drum speed for our batching computer. The combined chain-input encoder-output design eliminated a separate encoder mounting assembly on each plant.”
