How to maintain a long service life of the planetary reducer?

Update:26-12-2022
Summary:...
This is a problem for every planetary gearbox user. It is not difficult to realize its value and long-term service life by strictly following the use requirements of the reducer and carefully maintaining it. The debugging time of the reducer should not be less than two hours. The standard of normal operation is smooth operation, no vibration, no noise, no leakage, no impact. If there is any abnormality, it should be cleaned up in time.
After the reducer is aligned according to the market demand, a more ideal transmission system effect and a longer service life can be obtained. When the reducer is installed, special attention must be paid to the alignment of the transmission center axis, and the alignment error must not exceed the use compensation of the coupling used by the reducer.
There are many types of couplings that can be selected for the reducer, but it is best not to use steel fixed couplings. The installation of this type of coupling is difficult. Once the installation is not suitable, it will increase the load and easily cause bearing damage. The output shaft may even break.
The fixation of the reducer is very important, and it must be stable and firm. Generally, the reducer equipment should be placed on a horizontal base or base, and it should be able to be cleaned together with the oil drain tank, and the cooling air should be circulated.
When the reducer is not fixed well and the foundation is unreliable, the phenomenon of forming and swinging will appear, and it will also cause unnecessary damage to the bearings and gears. When necessary, protective equipment should be installed on the connection, such as contact connection or gear and sprocket drive. If the radial load of the output shaft is large, the reinforced type should also be selected.
