Is the normal operation of the gearbox affected by temperature?

Reducer is a machine equipment commonly used in our production operations. Many users have reported that the machine will experience high temperature and heat generation after long-term use, and are concerned about affecting its work efficiency. Is the normal operation of the gearbox affected by its temperature? The editor has specially compiled some relevant materials. Now let's take you to learn about them together.

1. The temperature rise is caused by the temperature difference between the gearbox and the environment, which generates heat. Temperature rise is an important indicator in the design and operation of the equipment, which marks the degree of heating generated by the equipment; If the temperature rise of the equipment suddenly increases during operation, it indicates that the equipment is faulty, the air duct is blocked, or the load is too heavy.
2. The working temperature of insulation material refers to the temperature of the hot spot in the winding insulation of the gearbox during its expected design life; If the operating temperature exceeds the working temperature of the material for a long time, the aging of the insulation will be exacerbated, which will greatly shorten the service life. Therefore, temperature is one of the main factors affecting the service life of this equipment during operation.

3. When the heat generation increases or the heat dissipation decreases, the balance will be disrupted, causing the temperature to continue to rise, widening the temperature difference, and increasing heat dissipation. At another higher temperature, a new equilibrium will be reached.

4. The iron core of the device in operation will experience iron loss when exposed to an alternating magnetic field, and copper loss and other stray losses will occur when the winding is energized, which will increase the temperature of the reducer; On the other hand, the device also dissipates heat, and when the heat generation and dissipation are equal, reaching an equilibrium state, the temperature no longer rises and stabilizes at a certain level.
From the above content, we can see that the gearbox is affected by temperature during normal operation, which means that only by maintaining a stable and suitable temperature during the operation of the equipment can it work better and extend its working life to a certain extent. Therefore, we must pay attention to stabilizing the equipment temperature when using this equipment.
