  In plastic extrusion and molding processes, the RCF gearbox provides the power needed for high-pressure operations. Its durable construction ensures it can handle the demanding conditions of plastics production.

• Other Applications
  The RCF series is also used in ceramics production, chemical processing, and environmental equipment. Its compatibility with specialized motors, such as explosion-proof or frequency conversion models, makes it suitable for niche applications.

Our customers have reported significant improvements in efficiency and reliability after adopting the RCF gearbox. For instance, a food processing plant in [Location] reduced downtime by 25% after installing RCF gearboxes in their production line, thanks to its low maintenance and robust performance.

How to Install the RCF B5 Flange-Mounted Helical Gearbox?

Proper installation is critical to ensuring the RCF B5 Flange-Mounted Helical Gearbox performs at its best. Below is a step-by-step guide to help you install the gearbox correctly. Always refer to the product manual and, if needed, consult a professional technician for safety and accuracy.

Step 1: Preparation

• Inspect the Gearbox: Check the gearbox for any shipping damage. Confirm that the model (e.g., RCF01, RCF02) matches your specifications for power, speed ratio, and torque.

• Gather Tools: You’ll need tools like wrenches, a torque wrench, and flange-compatible bolts. Ensure you have the correct motor adapter for the B5 flange.

• Safety First: Disconnect power to the motor and ensure the installation area is free of hazards.

Step 2: Mounting the Gearbox

• Prepare the Motor: Ensure the motor’s flange matches the B5 standard of the gearbox. Clean the flange surfaces to remove any debris or oil.

• Align the Gearbox: Position the gearbox’s B5 flange against the motor’s flange, ensuring the bolt holes are aligned. Use a level to check alignment and prevent stress on the system.

• Secure the Flange: Fasten the gearbox to the motor using high-strength bolts. Tighten to the recommended torque (see product manual) to ensure a secure connection.

Step 3: Connecting the System

• Check Shaft Alignment: Verify that the gearbox’s input shaft aligns with the motor’s output shaft within 0.1 mm to avoid premature wear. Use a dial indicator if necessary.

• Couple the System: If additional couplings are required (e.g., for output shaft connections), ensure they are properly installed and aligned.

• Secure the Assembly: Mount the motor-gearbox assembly to a stable surface if needed, using appropriate brackets or supports.

Step 4: Lubrication

• Fill with Lubricant: Add the recommended lubricant (typically synthetic or mineral oil) to the gearbox. Check the oil level using the dipstick or sight glass.

• Check Seals: Ensure all seals and gaskets are intact to prevent leaks during operation.

Step 5: Testing

• Initial Run: Power on the motor and run the gearbox at low speed to check for unusual noises, vibrations, or overheating. Monitor performance for the first 10–15 minutes.

• Adjust if Needed: If issues are detected, stop the system and recheck alignment, bolt tightness, and lubrication.

Step 6: Final Checks

• Verify Connections: Double-check all bolts, couplings, and seals for security.

• Document Settings: Record installation details, including torque values and lubricant type, for future reference.

Note: The RCF gearbox’s helical design generates axial thrust, so ensure your system includes appropriate thrust bearings. For complex setups or specific motor compatibility questions, contact our technical team.

Customer Feedback

• James Carter, Production Manager, USA
  “We installed the RCF gearbox in our packaging line in Ohio, and it’s been a game-changer. The B5 flange made it super easy to connect to our motors, and it runs so quietly we barely notice it. Since switching, we’ve cut energy costs by about 15% and haven’t had a single issue in over a year. The team at Ever-power was great at helping us pick the right model.”
• Li Wei, Factory Supervisor, China
  “In our textile plant in Guangdong, we needed a gearbox that could handle long hours without overheating. The RCF series has been perfect. It’s compact, fits our tight setup, and the torque is strong enough for our heavy looms. Plus, it’s barely needed maintenance in two years. We’re really happy with the performance and the support from Ever-power.”
• Anna Schmidt, Operations Engineer, Germany
  “We use the RCF gearbox in our food processing facility in Bavaria, and it’s been rock-solid. The flange design saved us a lot of space, and the quiet operation is a big plus in our cleanroom environment. It’s been running flawlessly for 18 months, and the technical support team was quick to answer our setup questions. Highly recommend!”
