The lubricant replacement cycle has an important impact on the performance of the WPA100-60-A reducer, as follows:
Affects the degree of wear : Lubricating oil can form an oil film on the surface of gears, bearings and other components of the reducer, reducing direct contact and wear of the components. If the replacement cycle is too long, the lubricating performance of the lubricating oil will decrease, the thickness of the oil film will be thinned, and the gear tooth surface may cause excessive wear and change of tooth shape, resulting in the reducer failure and shortening the service life. On the contrary, regularly changing lubricant oil can greatly reduce the wear rate of the gear tooth surface and ensure the transmission accuracy and efficiency of the reducer.
Influence heat dissipation effect : heat will be generated when the reducer is running, and the lubricating oil can absorb and take away heat, which can dissipate and cool it. If the lubricant oil is not replaced in time, its heat dissipation performance will deteriorate, causing the internal temperature of the reducer to be too high, resulting in a further decrease in the viscosity of the lubricant oil, forming a vicious cycle, which seriously affects the performance and service life of the reducer.
Impact cleaning ability : High-quality lubricating oil has cleaning and dispersive properties, and can suspend metal debris, dust and other impurities inside the reducer in the oil to prevent them from accumulating on the surface of the components, causing wear or blocking the oil path. If the lubricant replacement cycle is too long, its cleaning performance will degrade, and impurities will accumulate in gears and bearings, aggravate wear, and may even lead to serious failures such as gear jamming and bearing damage.
Impact sealing performance : Suitable lubricating oil can form a good oil seal in the sealing part of the reducer to prevent lubricating oil from leaking, and at the same time prevent the entry of external dust, moisture and other impurities. If the lubricant is not replaced for a long time, the sealing performance will become worse and leak, resulting in insufficient lubricant amount, affecting the lubricating effect, and the entry of external impurities will also accelerate the damage of the components, thereby reducing the performance of the reducer.
Affects noise and vibration : When the lubricant oil is not replaced in time, the lubricating performance will become worse, and the friction between gears and other components may increase, which may intensify noise and vibration. Regularly changing the lubricant to maintain a good lubricating state can make the gear mesh more stable and reduce noise and vibration.
