Observing a handful of rules for proper set up is essential to the reputable and good operation from the gearbox or gear motor.
The guidelines set out here are meant like a preliminary guidebook to deciding on gearbox or gear motor. For productive and suitable set up, comply with the instructions offered while in the set up, utilize the maintenances guide to the gearbox available from our product sales department.
Following is really a quick outline of set up rules:
a) Fastening:
Area gearbox on the surface giving adequate rigidity. Mating surfaces really should be machined and flat.
Mating surfaces need to be inside definite geometric tolerances (see guide). This is particularly correct of flange-mounted gearboxes with splined hollow shafts.
In applications that involve high radial loads in the output finish, flange mounting is advised for some gearbox sizes as this mounting can make use of the double pilot diameters presented in these gearboxes.
Ensure that the gearbox is appropriate for that demanded mounting position.
Use screws of resistance class 8.8 and more than to secure the gearbox. Torque up screws for the figures
indicated during the appropriate tables.
With transmitted output torque greater than or equal 70% from the indicated M2max torque, and with
frequent motion reversals, use screws with minimal resistance 10.9.
Some gearbox sizes could be fastened using either screws or pins. Of pin seated while in the frame the gearboxes be no less than one.5 times pin diameter.
b) Connections
Secure the connection parts to gearbox input and output. Do not tap them with hammers or very similar equipment.
To insert these elements, make use of the support screws and threaded holes offered over the shafts. Be sure to clean off any grease or protects from the shafts in advance of fitting any connection components.
Fitting hydraulic motors.
Be cautious the O ring amongst motor flange and gearbox input flange when assembling. Install the
hydraulic motor before filling lube oil to the gearbox.
Connecting the hydraulic brake.
The hydraulic circuit needs to be such to guarantee that brake is released instants just before gearbox starts and applied just after gearbox has stopped. Examine that pressure while in the hydraulic line for brake release is at zero each time gearbox is stopped.
Direction of rotation
Motors are linked to the ideal electrical or hydraulic circuit based on their direction of rotation.
When performing these connections, keep in mind that all gearboxes, whether or not within the in-line or suitable angle design, possess the very same route of rotation the two at input and output.
