How to prevent motor damage of BW18-43 cycloid reducer

The key to preventing motor damage of the BW18-43 cycloid reducer lies in the synergy of The following are specific measures:matching, load optimization, regular maintenance and protection devices .

1. Selection and matching

• ‌Power and Torque‌ : Select a motor with sufficient rated power and rated torque according to the actual load demand to ensure that the motor can easily drive the load. For example, for shock loads, a motor with a higher overload capacity should be selected.

• ‌Voltage matching‌ : Ensure that the rated voltage of the motor matches the actual power supply voltage, and the deviation should be within the allowable range (generally ±5%). If the voltage deviation is too large, it will affect the performance of the motor and increase the risk of overload.

2. Optimize load operation

• ‌Avoid full load operation‌ : The actual operating load of the motor should not exceed 80%-90% of the rated load, and a certain power margin should be reserved.

• ‌Load Scheduling‌ : Reasonably schedule and manage the load to avoid a sudden increase in load. For example, in a production line, it is necessary to ensure the uniformity of material transportation and prevent a sudden increase in motor load due to material accumulation.

3. Regular maintenance and inspection

• ‌Operating status check‌ : Regularly check the operating status of the motor, including parameters such as temperature, current, speed, etc., and detect abnormalities in a timely manner.

• ‌Transmission component inspection‌ : Check the motor's transmission components (such as belts, chains, couplings, etc.) to ensure that its transmission is smooth and free of looseness, wear or jamming, and to reduce additional load.

• ‌Heat dissipation channel cleaning‌ : Clean the motor casing and heat dissipation channels to ensure good heat dissipation of the motor and prevent overload due to performance degradation due to overheating.

4. Install protective devices

• ‌Overload protection‌ : Install thermal relays, overload protection switches and other devices. When the motor is overloaded, these devices can act in time to cut off the power supply or send out an alarm signal to protect the motor.

• ‌Protection device settings‌ : The thermal relay should be correctly set according to the rated current of the motor to ensure that it can operate accurately when the motor is overloaded.

5. Check the condition of power supply and motor itself

• ‌Power supply stability‌ : Ensure the power supply voltage is stable and avoid excessive voltage fluctuations. A voltage regulator can be installed or an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) can be used to cope with changes in mains voltage.

• ‌Motor self-inspection‌ : Regularly check the insulation resistance of the motor winding to ensure good insulation performance. If the insulation resistance value is too low, there may be insulation damage, and the cause should be found and repaired in time. At the same time, check whether there are short circuits, open circuits, etc. in the windings of the motor.
