Gear reducers are generally used for transmission equipment with low speed and high torque. Ordinary reducers of electric motors will also have several pairs of gears with the same principle to achieve the ideal deceleration effect. The ratio of the number of teeth of large and small gears is the transmission ratio. With the continuous development of the reducer industry, more and more companies have used reducers.

Gear reducers use various levels of gear transmission to achieve the purpose of speed reduction. The reducer is composed of various levels of gear pairs. For example, using a small gear to drive a large gear can achieve a certain deceleration purpose. Then, using a multi-level structure can reduce the speed.

Three methods for correct use and maintenance of gear reducers

1. Pay attention to the construction of the assembly site of the gear reducer. The assembly of the reducer requires the ground to be flat and the ventilation conditions to be as good as possible to ensure the normal use of the gear reducer.

2. Pay attention to the daily maintenance of the gear reducer. Never use it without maintenance. No matter how good the equipment is, if it is not maintained, its life will be reduced by at least one third. Daily maintenance is very critical. The daily maintenance of the reducer involves: the use and replacement of lubricating oil, whether a series of parts such as assembly foundation, seals, and transmission shafts are normal, and the maintenance of key parts such as shell degreasing. The reducer cleaning and maintenance machine uses the original oil supply and discharge system of the reducer and the filtered old oil to realize the functions of cleaning the reducer, quickly filtering the waste oil, and filling new oil. The operation process does not change the hardware facilities and does not use cleaning agents, which ensures the safe operation of the reducer and increases the service life.

3. Pay attention to the maintenance of the gear reducer when it is out of use. We cannot ignore the reducer when it is out of use. Just like a car, there will be no problems if it is used all the time. But if it is ignored for a long time, you can only go to the repair shop to repair it if you want to use it again. When the reducer is idle, pay attention to regular inspection and maintenance according to the provisions of the instruction manual. When it is used again, it can be ensured that it can be used immediately after starting up without unexpected failures.

Conclusion

The gear reducer is a power transmission mechanism used for the slewing mechanism of tower crane machinery. It is widely used in metallurgy, mining, lifting, transportation, cement, construction, chemical industry, textile, printing and dyeing, pharmaceutical and other fields.
