What are the advantages and disadvantages of hard tooth surface reducer and soft tooth surface reducer? 2026-01-20
The advantages and disadvantages of hard tooth surface reducer and soft tooth surface reducer are as follows: 1. Advantages and disadvantages of hard tooth surface reducer 1. Advantages: (1) The tooth surface hardness is high, generally above HRC58, and the wear resistance is excellent. It can withstand higher contact stress and impact load. The load-bearing capacity is 2-3 times higher than that of the soft tooth surface reducer of the same specification. It is suitable for heavy load, high speed, and frequent start and stop conditions. (2) The transmission efficiency is high, reaching 96%-98%. The tooth surface has been quenched and ground, with high tooth profile precision, small meshing clearance, lower vibration and noise during operation, and strong operating stability. (3) Long service life. Under the conditions of standardized lubrication and maintenance, the service life can reach 10-20 years, which is much higher than that of soft tooth surface reducers, which can reduce the frequency of equipment replacement and shutdown maintenance. (4) Compact structure, with the same load capacity, the volume and weight are 15%-30% smaller than that of soft tooth surface reducers, saving installation space and adapting to a variety of compact equipment
