The benefits of using a motor with a reducer

With the continuous development of industry, the application of precision reducers is becoming more and more widespread. The commonly used motors in industrial production will be used together with reducers in the process of use. So why do motors need to be used together with reducers? Next, let's take a detailed understanding.

A gear reducer is actually a power transmission mechanism that does not generate power itself. Its function is to use different gear sizes and speed converters to reduce the motor's rotation to the desired number of rotations and obtain a larger torque. The motor is equipped with a reducer to increase torque. When the load is large, blindly increasing the power of the servo motor is not cost-effective. Therefore, selecting a suitable reduction ratio reducer within the required speed range is the purpose of slowing down speed and increasing output torque.

The combination of motor and high-precision reducer is to reduce the output of the driving motor

Speed and inertia, while increasing torque, achieve ideal transmission effect. The main structure of the reducer is composed of a reducer gear module. Using the reducer can effectively maintain the function of the motor. During operation, the reducer receives a larger torque, and when overloaded, it is transmitted to the motor. As long as the overload is divided by the value of the reduction ratio, it can effectively reduce the moment of inertia. The reducer can control the start stop and speed change in a timely manner. Increasing the torque through the reducer is equivalent to increasing the input power, which can reduce the power required for the input motor. Generally, motors are more expensive than reducers. Therefore, it is necessary to use a reducer to effectively save usage costs. If it is directly borne by the motor, it may cause damage to the motor. When the overload is very high, the gearbox is first damaged, The planetary gearbox only needs to replace spare parts to restore operation, which is relatively low in cost. If the motor is directly damaged, the gearbox will be damaged first when the overload is very high, and the gearbox only needs to replace spare parts to restore operation, which is relatively low in cost. If the motor is directly damaged and repaired relatively slowly, the cost is also high. Using a planetary gearbox can effectively reduce the motor speed and increase torque, and output the corresponding multiplication and reduction ratio according to the motor. It can also effectively save energy. Using a gearbox can reduce the output torque current of the motor by a lot, and can also effectively reduce the load inertia of the motor. In terms of numerical values, inertia is the square value of the reduction ratio, and different motor inertia can also effectively save energy. The values are different.

The connection method between the reducer and the motor is that the output shaft of the servo motor extends into the reducer, and the servo motor is connected to the reducer through a flange. There is a deformable clamp inside the reducer. By operating the locking screw on the reducer, the clamp can tighten the shaft of the servo motor.
