Can the KA157RF97-503-4KW reducer continue to operate the equipment when the heating is abnormal?

• It may aggravate equipment damage: abnormal heating is usually a signal of a reducer failure, such as poor lubrication, bearing damage, excessive load, etc. Continuing to operate will worsen these problems, causing accelerated wear, deformation and even damage to key components such as gears and bearings, which will greatly increase maintenance costs and extend equipment downtime. For example, if the bearing is damaged, the continuous operation may completely scrap the bearing, and it will also affect the shaft and gear components that cooperate with it.

• There are safety hazards: overheating may cause the reducer's seal to age and fail, causing lubricant leakage. This will not only affect the normal lubrication of the reducer, but may also pollute the working environment. If the leaked lubricant oil comes into contact with flammable materials such as open flames, there is also a risk of causing a fire. In addition, long-term overheating will reduce the performance of the insulating material and increase the possibility of electrical failures, such as short circuits, leakage, etc., threatening the personal safety of the operator.

• Impact production quality: Unstable operation of the reducer will lead to a decrease in transmission accuracy, affecting the normal operation of other equipment on the production line, and thus affecting product quality. For example, in some production links that require high accuracy, such as electronic component manufacturing, precision mechanical processing, etc., slight transmission errors caused by abnormal heating of reducers may lead to defects or even scrapping of products.

However, if the degree of heat abnormality is light and can be determined to be caused by some temporary and non-serious reasons, such as a brief increase in the ambient temperature and instantaneous fluctuations in the load, etc., if appropriate cooling measures are taken (such as strengthening ventilation, reducing load) and closely monitoring the temperature, the operation can be continued for a short time, but shutdown inspection and maintenance must be arranged as soon as possible. However, if the cause of the fever cannot be determined or the fever is serious, the machine should be shut down immediately to avoid causing more serious consequences.
