The reducer is also a speed reducer, but usually the speed reducer is used to slow down. It is habitually called the reducer; Generally, the reducer has a fixed transmission ratio and is adjustable, but it is usually adjusted by stages. It's easy for everyone to think that there is an adjustable reducer on the vehicle, so the vehicle has many gears. Like the motor, the gasoline engine (diesel engine) can change the accelerator speed, but the scope of change is small.
The reducer is a relatively precise machine. The purpose of using it is to reduce the speed and increase the torque. It has many kinds, different models and different uses. According to the transmission type, it can be divided into gear reducer, worm gear reducer and planetary gear reducer; According to the difference of transmission stages, it can be divided into single-stage and multi-stage reducers.
In the current mechanism used to transmit power and motion, the reducer is widely used. Its application can be seen from the transmission of large power to small load and accurate transmission. In industrial application, the reducer has the function of reducing speed and increasing torque.
The main functions of the reducer are:
1. Reduce the speed and increase the output torque at the same time. The torque output ratio shall be based on the motor output multiplying/decelerating ratio, but pay special attention not to exceed the rated torque of the reducer.
2. Speed reduction reduces the inertia of the load at the same time.
