What is a planetary speed reducer and what is it used for?

Overview of Planetary Reduction Gearbox:

Planetary reduction gearbox is a kind of widely used speed reduction equipment, planetary reduction gearboxes are very high precision, to ensure that the precision transmission of the premise, planetary reduction gearboxes are mainly used to reduce the speed of speed to increase the torque and to reduce the ratio of inertia of the load/motor. Planetary gearboxes are also called servo gearboxes or servo planetary gearboxes.

Planetary reducer adopts involute planetary gear transmission, reasonable use of internal and external meshing, power shunt, the case is made of ductile cast iron, which greatly improves the steel of the case and seismic resistance; gears are carburized and quenched to get a high hardness and wear-resistant surface, gears are all grinded after heat treatment, which reduces the noise and improves the efficiency and service life of the whole machine; planetary reducer planetary drive stage number of 2 and 3 levels, which is the most commonly used levels.

Planetary gearbox main transmission structure is: planetary wheel, sun wheel, internal gear ring, drive motor, drive shaft.

Planetary reducer can be divided into three sections from the appearance: input section, deceleration section and output section.

Input section: The input section refers to the end that is connected to the motor. Including the input shaft hole, input flange

Reduction section: Reduction section refers to the core section of the reducer, which looks like a box from the outside, but actually contains a lot of core components, such as the planetary gears, sun gears, the inner gear ring.

Output section: Output refers to the end connected to the equipment, including the output shaft, output flange.

Planetary reducer transmission advantages:

Small size, light weight, high load capacity, long service life, smooth operation, low noise, high output torque, high speed ratio, high efficiency, performance and safety features. Both power shunt, multi-tooth meshing unique characteristics. Planetary reducer transmission efficiency in general are more than 90%, can reach more than 95%, widely used.

Planetary speed reducer use:

Planetary speed reducer is widely used in spring machinery, robot, textile machine, machine tool manufacturing field, precision machining machine tools, aerospace industry, smart home, automobile manufacturing, shipbuilding industry, semiconductor equipment, printing machinery, food packaging, automation industry, industrial robots, medical testing, precision testing instruments and automated high-precision machinery. test instruments and automation of high-precision electromechanical products industry.
