Installation and Usage
When installing the WPDKS gearbox, follow these guidelines:
- Installation Precautions: Ensure the gearbox is mounted on a stable, level base. Tighten the mounting bolts securely and use anti-vibration measures as necessary. Align the input and output shaft accurately after installation to avoid misalignment issues that could lead to premature wear.
- Connection Specifications: The external diameter tolerances for the input and output shaft should adhere to h6 standards. Couplings, pulleys, and other drive components must match suitable tolerances to avoid excessive tightness or looseness, which could jeopardize performance and reliability.
- Lubrication: Prior to installation, apply grease to the worm head bore and keyway to prevent seizing. If using heavy motors, consider a support mechanism to prevent excess strain on the gearbox.
Before operating, verify that the gearbox type, center distance, gear ratio, and shaft orientations align with operational requirements. Follow lubrication guidelines as per the user manual, and ensure the correct lubricant is injected. After filling, securely close the vent plug and remove the small plug before initiating operation.
Should any abnormal conditions arise during usage, halt operation immediately and inspect the gearbox, referring to troubleshooting guides for resolution. The maximum allowable temperature for the gearbox oil is 95°C; as long as it does not exceed this temperature, the gearbox can operate without concern.
Lubrication Oil Selection and Use
For worm gearboxes, use N220~N320 lubricating oil under -30℃ to 40℃, or N320~460 for 40℃ to 65℃ environments. Fill oil to the center line of the oil level gauge and remove the vent plug. After the first 100 hours of operation, change the oil. Subsequently, replace the oil every 2500 hours. The following table can assist in selecting the correct lubricant:
