Teach you how to choose a suitable gearbox and install it
Teaching you how to install a gearbox correctly: A gearbox is an inexhaustible topic, as continuous technology is innovating and being eliminated. Therefore, we can only ask everyone to constantly improve and absorb new knowledge. Knowledge is innovating, and people are also changing. The changes in gearboxes may not be easy to see, but if you have seen gearboxes from the 1970s, you will feel the rapid development of the world today. Actually, not only the gearbox, everything else is developing. When various industries are using harmonics, belt drive reducers, planetary gear reducers, and other large families, perhaps no one will think about how long it will take to change from its original functions to its current new functions. No one will consider how much time it will take. Today, when various industries are using new reducers in full swing, perhaps no one will consider the development of previous reducers, but today, I think it's necessary to tell everyone about the history of reducers. Before discussing the history of gearboxes, let's first recall the development of modern society. We know that as early as the Renaissance, modern scientific civilization had a preliminary development. At that time, people broke free from the constraints of theology and could devote greater ideas to more scientific exploration. In that era, many exciting discoveries and inventions emerged. In that era, it was not easy to imagine that people now had such free thinking. However, in that great era, both science, culture, and philosophy had volcanic development. Perhaps some discoveries and inventions at that time did not receive sufficient attention in the eyes of modern people, but the point to be made here is that without the foundation of that time and long-term accumulation, how could there have been later accumulation and thin development. The development of anything requires accumulation, and having a solid foundation is a necessary guarantee for future success. It is the same for any industry. We understand the above ideas and then look back at the development of gearbox technology. Regardless of time, technology is always the dominant aspect. With technology, there are the most important conditions for success.
Teach you to choose a suitable gearbox. When choosing a planetary gearbox, the first step is to clarify the reduction ratio. After determining the reduction ratio, please multiply the rated torque of the servo motor you have chosen by the reduction ratio. The value obtained should be generally smaller than the rated output torque of similar reducers provided in the product sample, while also considering the overload capacity of the driving motor and the maximum working torque required in practice. The required maximum working torque should be less than twice the rated output torque. After meeting the above conditions, please choose the smallest reducer, as smaller reducers have a relatively lower cost. If you don't have enough space to connect the motor reducer in a straight line, you can also choose a corner type reducer, which can turn the torque by 90 degrees. Next, we need to consider the return clearance of the planetary reducer. The smaller the return gap, the higher the accuracy and cost. Users need to choose a series of reducers that meet their accuracy requirements. The return clearance indicator given in the product manual of Changzhou Hualong Electromechanical Huibang Transmission Machinery Factory is based on the one with the largest return clearance in batch production of the same model, while in reality, more than 98% of planetary reducers have actual return clearance less than 50% of the given indicator. If you don't have enough space to connect the motor reducer in a straight line, you can also choose a corner type reducer, which can turn the torque by 90 degrees. Next, we need to consider the return clearance of the planetary reducer. The smaller the return gap, the higher the accuracy and cost. Also consider lateral/radial forces and average lifespan. Reducers with large lateral/radial forces have high reliability in installation and use, and are not prone to problems. The actual service life can be calculated according to the software provided by the manufacturer. Usually, its average lifespan far exceeds the lifespan of the equipped servo motor. After meeting the above indicators, you can choose a reducer that matches your motor in terms of installation size, shaft diameter, and input flange based on the product sample provided by NEUGART company. If you don't have enough space for the motor to slow down and connect in a straight line, you can also choose a corner type reducer, which can turn the torque by 90 degrees. Next, we need to consider the return clearance of the planetary reducer. The smaller the return gap, the higher the accuracy and cost. Finally, you also need to consider the weight of the motor you are equipped with. A reducer is only allowed to be paired with motors less than a certain weight. If the motor is too heavy and runs for a long time, it will damage the output flange of the reducer
