Introduction to WP reducer

Introduction to WP reducer

WP reducer is also called WP reducer, which is divided into standard WPS series, standard WPD series, standard WPA, WPO.WPDA.WPDO, WPDS, WPDS and so on.WP worm gear reducer is developed on the basis of WD reducer.The worm is made of 45# high quality steel and heat treated.The worm gear is made of tin bronze, which has good wear resistance, especially in terms of load-carrying capacity.The worm gear reducer is mainly suitable for the reduction transmission of various mechanical equipment, such as plastics, metallurgy, beverage, mining, lifting transportation, chemical industry, etc.

It consists of one or several pairs of meshing gears, worm gears, worms, etc. installed in a rigid sealed box, and used as an independent part in the machine.It is usually used as a transmission device for deceleration between the prime mover and the working machine.Conversely, in a few cases, such as centrifugal compressors and other step-up drives, the drive is called a step-up gearbox.

Due to its compact structure, low efficiency (reducer), accurate and reliable transmission movement, use and maintenance, and mass production, this reducer is widely used in the fields of chemical plants, machinery and engineering institutions.

There are many types of reducers, which can generally be divided into gear (cylindrical gear, bevel gear) reducer, worm gear reducer and other types.According to the number of stages of the reducer, it is divided into single-stage, two-stage and three-stage reducers.There are also vertical and horizontal points.The reducer is mainly composed of gears (or worm gears), shafts, bearings and housings, while the gears (or worm gears), shafts, bearings, etc. are supported by the housing.Therefore, the box shell should have sufficient rigidity so as not to deform after loading, thus affecting the transmission quality and working performance.The reducers produced by conventional reducer manufacturers are all made of cast steel.

Installation matters

1. When installing the reducer, it must be firmly installed on the machine without loosening.During this process, it is necessary to confirm whether the rotation direction of the reducer is correct, and then the installation operation can be performed intermittently.

2. The reducer should not be stored for too long.If the oil seal has not been immersed in lubricating oil for more than 3-6 months, it is recommended that the user replace the oil seal.

3. Please follow the use specification of the reducer. The standard working environment temperature is -5 degrees to 10 degrees. If it exceeds this rated value, please pay attention.

4. The reducer is usually used in conjunction with a geared motor or motor, so ventilation must be installed to improve heat dissipation and maintain normal operation.

5. When using after installation, you must first check the oil level of the lubricating oil, instead of immediately increasing the load to the highest, it is recommended to increase it gradually.

6. It is recommended to install protective devices around the reducer and geared motor.

7. The above installation rules also include reducers with electromagnetic clutches and electromagnetic brakes (that is, clutch brake reducers).Check the operation of the electromagnetic clutch and electromagnetic brake before doing the following:
