Designing gear motors: key points to keep an eye on

What are the keys elements in gear motors designing? Finding the best motion for each application depends on following theese tips. Take note.

Are you planning to use a gear motor on a company project? Below CLR bring you 5 tips that should guide the design of your gear motors. It's time to learn how to improve it's performance and reliability. Follow us!

1. Power and speed reduction: gear motor calculation: We will have to determine the output and input shaft speeds for the mechanism.

2. Gear motor efficiency: The concept of efficiency tells us how much energy is lost. So, to sum up, efficiency tells us that the output power available for each element will equal the input power multiplied by its efficiency.

3. The amount of start-ups and the service factor: For example, the torque transferred can increase when there are fluctuations in the load and speed. These variations are controlled through the application of the service factor, which are multiplied by the optimal operation torque in order to define the selection torque (also called the design torque).

4. Noise and load: You can never go wrong with helical gears.

5. Gear motors service life: It can be affected by many factors: speed, load, duty cycle or environmental conditions (humidity, temperature, salinity, etc.).The right selection of gear motor components is essential.
