The reducer is a power transmission device. It uses a gear reducer to reduce the speed of the motor to the required speed. At the same time, greater torque will be achieved. In all current power transmission mechanisms, reducers have a wide range of applications. It can be seen in almost all transmission systems of various machines. It can be used for ships, automobiles, motorcycles and other transportation vehicles. It can also be used for machinery in heavy construction equipment, industrial processing machinery and automated production equipment. In addition, it can be seen in our daily lives. For example, it can be used in household appliances, watches, etc. Thus, we can see that it has a wide range of applications, from large transmission tasks to small loads. As for its use in industry, the worm gear reducer can reduce the speed and increase the torque function. Therefore, it can be widely used in speed and torque conversion devices.
Because the reducer has such a wide range of uses, it is very necessary to inspect and maintain this important equipment. There are many precautions for inspection and maintenance. First of all, the reducer should be firmly installed in a stable position on the foundation or base. The oil in the oil tank should be drained and cooling air should be circulated. An unreliable foundation can cause vibration and noise, and cause damage to bearings and gears. When the driver is connected to the protrusion or when a gear and sprocket driver is used, one should consider installing a protective device. If the output bearing is subjected to greater radial load, the reinforced type should be selected followed by installation according to regulations. After installation, you should carefully check the location to ensure its accuracy. In addition, the reliability of compression fasteners should also be checked. The reducer should rotate flexibly after installation.
Third, when installing the reducer, attention should be paid to the central axis of the drive. The error should not be greater than the compensation amount of the coupling. Good concentration will extend the service life and obtain the ideal transmission efficiency. When installing the transmission parts on the output shaft, it is not allowed to hit with a hammer. Usually, it will be installed with the assembly jig and shaft screw. Otherwise, the internal parts of the reducer may be damaged.
