How often should the KAF77-1:23-7.5KW-M5 conical gear reducer be cleaned?

There is no fixed standard for the cleaning cycle of KAF77 hard tooth surface reducer, and multiple factors need to be considered comprehensively. The following are some common judgment criteria:

Working environment: If the gearbox is in a harsh environment with a lot of dust and impurities, such as mines, construction sites, etc., it is generally recommended to clean it externally every 1-2 weeks to prevent dust and impurities from accumulating and affecting heat dissipation and appearance. If in relatively clean indoor environments such as food processing workshops, electronics factories, etc., the cleaning cycle can be appropriately extended to 1-2 months.

Running time: For gearboxes that run continuously for a long time, such as running for more than 8 hours a day, it is recommended to conduct an internal cleaning inspection once a month and a comprehensive cleaning and maintenance every 3-6 months. For gearboxes that operate intermittently or for short periods of time, internal inspection and cleaning can be carried out every 3-6 months, and comprehensive cleaning can be carried out every 6-12 months.

Equipment condition: If oil leakage or abnormal wear is found in the gearbox during daily inspections, it should be cleaned in a timely manner and internal parts should be inspected. It may be necessary to shorten the cleaning cycle in order to detect potential problems in a timely manner. If the device is in good operating condition, it can be cleaned according to the regular cycle.

In practical applications, a suitable cleaning cycle can be developed based on the specific operating conditions, maintenance experience, and equipment manufacturer's recommendations of the gearbox. At the same time, it is important to keep records of each cleaning to summarize patterns and optimize maintenance plans.
