The installation methods of the output shaft of the cycloid pin wheel reducer of different models may have the following differences:
Installation method and alignment requirements
Horizontal installation : For example, the XWD/BWD series horizontal cycloid pin wheel reducer, the output shaft is parallel to the ground, and it must be installed on a horizontal basis without vibration and solidity during installation, and the inclination of the axis line shall not be greater than ±15°. During installation, it is necessary to ensure that the output shaft is consistent with the axis of the driven mechanical equipment. It is usually necessary to connect with a coupling, which requires high centering requirements, otherwise it may lead to reduced transmission efficiency or equipment damage.
Vertical installation : Some models are flange vertical cycloid pin wheel reducer, with the output shaft vertically downward and can be installed horizontally, but if the output shaft needs to be installed upward, special instructions are required when ordering. This installation method requires high sealing of lubricating oil to avoid leakage.
Special installation : Some reducer models with torsion arms, such as FA47/T, the output shaft is connected to the drive and load equipment through the torque arm. One end of the torque arm is fixed to the reducer and the other end is fixed to the support structure. This installation method can provide certain axial and radial displacements, which can better adapt to misalignment, but requires more initial adjustments during installation.
Connection method
Flange connection : Some models of cycloid pin wheel reducer output shafts may use flange connection. This connection method has high installation accuracy and firm connection, and is often used in occasions where installation stability is high.
Axial extension connection : Some models adopt axial extension connection, and the output shaft is in axial extension form, and it is necessary to use a suitable coupling to connect to the load equipment. The shaft extension size and shape of different models may be different. The appropriate coupling needs to be selected according to the specific situation.
Installation precautions
Force limitation : The output shaft of the cycloid pin wheel reducer generally cannot withstand large axial and radial forces, and excessive external forces should be avoided when installing. If you connect transmissions such as sprockets, do not loosen the tooth chain, otherwise the impact force generated during starting may damage the output shaft.
Avoid hammering : When couplings, gears and other couplings are coupled to the output shaft of the cycloid pin wheel reducer, direct hammering method shall not be used. The bolts should be screwed into the screw holes at the shaft extension end and pressed into the pressure plate to avoid damaging the output shaft.
Phase alignment : For some specific models, you should pay attention to the phase alignment of the cycloid wheel during installation to avoid noise and transmission problems caused by misalignment, which indirectly affects the installation effect of the output shaft.
