Four series of speed reducers and their applications

Reducer is one of the core components in the industrial field, which can convert the power output of high-speed movement motor deceleration, in order to suit the needs of various equipment in industrial production. There are many classifications of speed reducers, and the four major series of speed reducers are planetary speed reducers, hard-toothed face speed reducers, worm gear speed reducers and bevel gear reducers. Here we will introduce these four series of reducers and their applications in detail from four aspects.

1. Planetary Reduction Gearboxes

Planetary reducer is also called planetary gear reducer, planetary reducer and planetary drive mechanism. It is mainly composed of inner and outer gears and planetary gears. The planetary gears rotate continuously on the inner gears along the planetary shaft, while rotating continuously around the center of the inner gears. When the transmission shaft is used as the input shaft, the output shaft can be decelerated and rotated through the embedding of the planetary gears. Planetary gearboxes are characterized by compact structure, smooth transmission, and not easy to slide when stopping. It is used in various automation equipment, precision instruments, packaging machinery, metallurgical machinery and other fields.

2. Hard Gear Reducer

The hardened gear reducer is a kind of reducer that utilizes gear meshing to realize deceleration transmission. Its gear surface is heat-treated and has high hardness and strength, so it has high transmission power and transmission efficiency. Therefore, in the industrial field, the use of hardened gear reducer can usually realize the transmission of high power. Hardened gear reducer is widely used in various fields of national economy, such as mining and metallurgy, cement manufacturing, paper making, electric power, iron and steel, petrochemicals, shipping and engineering machinery.

3. Worm gear reducer

Worm gear reducer is an important series of reducer with simple structure, small size, large transmission ratio, high transmission efficiency and low noise. It consists of worm gear, worm gear, bearing, oil seal, pinion gear, nameplate and other components. Worm gear and worm gear mesh, so the work of friction is large, the temperature rise is also high, need to use lubricants to reduce friction in the process of use. Worm gear reducer is widely used in machinery and equipment, mining, chemical industry, building materials, light industry, food, textile, pharmaceutical and other industrial fields.

4. Bevel Gear Reducer

Bevel gear reducer utilizes the meshing of bevel gears to realize deceleration transmission. It consists of bearings, gears, shells and other parts. Bevel gear reducer is small in size, compact in structure, strong in transmission capacity, low in noise, and at the same time, it can realize high-speed, medium-speed and low-speed variable speed adjustment. It is widely used in machine tools, textile, metallurgy, mining and other industrial equipment.

Summarize

There are four series of speed reducers, which are planetary speed reducer, hard-toothed surface speed reducer, worm gear speed reducer and bevel gear reducer. Each reducer has its own advantages and scope of application. Choosing the right reducer can improve the efficiency of the equipment, reduce energy consumption and achieve more ideal industrial production results.
