Speed reducers are powerful mechanical devices generally used in machining tools to multiply the force or torque generated by an input power source, thereby increasing the usable force, enhancing the performance and precision of the machining tool. They are also used in material handling systems such as conveyor belts and lifting mechanisms to control the speed of material transfer and manage heavy loads efficiently. By multiplying the available output force, they enable the use of a reduced input power source, resulting in cost savings for machine tool investments. When choosing the appropriate speed reducer, the torque, speed, and horsepower of the input, as well as the mounting configuration, efficiency, and required lifetime all need to be considered. The quality of the machine chosen will also be reflected in the amount of backlash, transmission error, torsional rigidity, and inertia experienced during machining.
Planetary reducer has been in existence for more than 30 years. During this long period of time, planetary reducer has gradually entered the field of automation from only appearing in high-end equipment in Europe and America, and has been widely used in machine tools, semiconductors, and packaging industries in recent years. The equipment in the medical food industry, aerospace and other fields will be used with planetary reducers. High, medium and low power servo motors with planetary reducers have become standard. What are the applications and advantages of planetary reducers? This article will let you know more about planetary reducers.
With the constant development of modern technology, the power output of equipment, such as internal combustion engines and motors is getting stronger and stronger. To attain the full efficiency of these power sources, reducers are incorporated.
