What are the Different Types of Gearboxes

A gearbox, sometimes called a speed reducer or increaser, is a mechanical transmission device, which is usually used in conjunction with an engine or motor to change the rotational speed and torque of the power source through the meshing of the gears, thus realizing the transmission of the power and the reduction or increase of the speed.
Siemens Servo Motors

Siemens servo motors are well-known servo motors which can be installed on different types of gearboxes. The reason why we today talk about it is that our customers buy Siemens servo motors and seek precision gearboxes like planetary gearboxes, harmonic gearboxes, or right angle gearboxes for it. When customers send us their inquiries about the […]
Reasons and ways to solve the oil leakage of the reducer gearboxes

The pressure difference between the inside and outside of the reducer: During the operation of the reducer, the friction and heating of the moving pair, as well as the influence of environmental temperature, cause the temperature of the reducer to increase.

How to Solve the Problems We Meet When using A Speed Reducer?

1.Overheating of speed reducer A.Overload running—adjust to suitable load. B.Excessive friction of oil seal—add lubrication oil to the oil seal. C.Improper connection of output shaft and transmission device—adjust to proper position D.Too heavy impact loading-replace bigger model of speed reducer 2.Noise of speed reducer Overload operation—adjust to proper load. Bearing damaged or too big backlash—replace […]
The Factors Influence the Efficiency of the Servo Gearbox

The larger the reduction ratio is, the more numbers stages will be needed, and the lower the efficiency will be. Well, how to check the backlash of MKD low backlash planetary gearbox ?
