WPKA120-40-B The fault diagnosis and maintenance of the worm gear reducer can refer to the following experience: Fault diagnosis, listening and positioning: The sound of metal friction may be due to lack of oil or oil deterioration, so you need to check the oil level in the oil window immediately and touch the box to see if it is hot; regular impact sounds may be broken teeth or damaged bearing cages, you can stop the machine and turn it manually to feel if there is any jamming; high-frequency whistling sounds may be poor alignment of the coupling, use a screwdriver to hold the bearing end and listen to the sound changes. Touch diagnosis: touch the bearing seat, and if it is hot (>70°C), the bearing may be lacking grease or damaged; touch the box joint surface, and if oil leakage or scaling occurs, the seal may be failed; touch the output shaft, if there is obvious swing, the bearing may be worn. Visual inspection: Check the lubricating oil. If the oil window is turbid, it may be oil emulsification. If the oil is black, it may be metal wear. Check the coupling. If the elastic gasket is cracked, replace it immediately. If the alignment is offset, use a ruler to roughly measure the gap.
