What we should pay attention to when using the speed reducer gearbox?

The service life of the speed reducer is not only related to the quality of the reducer, but also on how to maintain the reducer in the ordinary time is also the key to the long time use of the reducer. Well, what problems we should pay attention to in the process of using the reducer gearbox? Here we come to find it out.

Firstly, before using the speed reducer, we should pay attention to check the reducer construction, center distance specification, transmission ratio, input shaft connection mode, output shaft structure, input and output shaft direction and rotation direction are in conformity with the using requirement, and the worm input speed should not exceed 1500rpm. Secondly, the load should be applied gradually and cannot be started under full loaded. All speed reducers should be configured with exhaust plug. And oil level should be checked when using ( such as oil level mirror hole or open the oil plug ). Besides, the gear reducer should also try to avoid being exposed to the sun and the harsh environment. Ensure good ventilation environment near the motor fans, so as not to affect heat dissipation.

If the storage time of the gear reducer is up to 4-6 months, you are required to check whether the oil seal is immersed in the lubrication oil. The lip of the oil seal may be stick on the shaft and even lose the elasticity. Because the proper elasticity is the working condition of the oil seal, it is recommended to replace the oil seal, and all the rubber and breathable hole can not be covered with paint.

The standard working environment of the speed reducer is at -5 C -40 C.
