When it comes to the temperature control of the servo motor reducer, we are sure that everyone is familiar with it. To control the temperature of the body, we need to pay attention to whether the temperature of the transmission system is appropriate. This chapter analyzes "the reasons for the rise of the oil temperature in the gearbox inside the servo motor reducer".

1. High viscosity

Due to the poor heat transfer effect of high viscosity oil and poor viscosity, heat dissipation is difficult. The viscosity of oil products will be significantly reduced with the increase of temperature. It can be seen that the gear lubricating oil with low viscosity should be selected as far as possible when the appropriate load level is selected

2. Heavy load

The gearbox is overloaded, the oil film is broken, and there is a tendency of direct wear and failure. The friction and wear between gears are large, causing the temperature of the tooth surface to rise. Therefore, the advantages and disadvantages should be weighed, and the oil products with appropriate viscosity grade or load grade should be selected according to the load conditions to avoid stepping on thunder. The use of extreme pressure gear oil and high viscosity oil is indeed beneficial to lubrication, but it also has a negative effect of poor heat dissipation.

3. Running in period

The newly installed gearbox needs a running in period to better fit the operation of the whole machine. Just like a newcomer joining a new team, there will always be a running in period, but the difference is that the equipment has not yet entered the regular use stage, which leads to greater wear and tear, causing the temperature of the tooth surface of the servo motor reducer to rise, driving the temperature of the gear oil to rise. It is true that such temperature rise is a necessary stage for the normal operation of the equipment. After this special period, the machine will return to normal. However, the first oil change period of the new gearbox is short, and the washed abrasive can be brought out through oil change.

4. A lot of oil

The oil level is too high due to excessive oil filling before startup, which affects the normal heat dissipation of the servo motor reducer gear. Note: Too much or too little oil will affect the heat dissipation effect. 

The above is the common reason for the increase of the internal gear oil temperature of the servo motor reducer. Finally, if you have any other questions, you are welcome to consult the manufacturer - Newgear
