For geared motor companies, it is very important to choose the right lubricant.So what is its specific usage?Let's take a look with the editor.
One: Improper lubricant will make the geared motor not fully lubricated and protected, which will not only affect the transmission accuracy, efficiency and working stability of the machine, but also cause wear, scratches, pitting, and heat generation on the gears. .At the same time, the metal grinding debris filled in the closed box will aggravate the wear, cause the geared motor to fail, and shorten the service life of the parts.There are two types of lubricants that meet the lubrication requirements of geared motors: lubricating oil and grease.Lubricants include base oils, additives and solid lubricants; grease components include base oils, additives, solid lubricants and thickeners.When selecting lubricant or grease, it must be determined according to the transmission structure design and working conditions of the geared motor.For example: gear geometry, material, peripheral speed/slip speed, load status (torque/tooth surface pressure), energy consumption, working temperature, tooth surface heat dissipation status, sealing status and other factors.Proper lubricants can not only provide long-term lubrication protection for geared motors, but also prolong their service life and prolong their service life.
Two: The base oil accounts for about 90% of the lubricant composition, which is divided into mineral type and synthetic type.Long-life, high-performance synthetic base oils meet the lubrication requirements of geared motors.Synthetic lubricants and seal compatibility also vary.In order to better prevent lubricant leakage, it is necessary to understand the characteristics of synthetic lubricants and sealing materials in detail before use to ensure the compatibility of the two.
Three: The requirements for the lubricant of the geared motor are more stringent under heavy load conditions.Therefore, lubricants are required to have good extreme pressure resistance and wear resistance.Special formulations, such as EP additives and wear-resistant additives, can better meet the lubrication requirements of geared motors under heavy load conditions.
The above is the relevant introduction to the use of geared motor lubricants, I hope it will be helpful to you.If you still have any questions, please consult the technical staff of the Leohard geared motor manufacturer.
