What are the effects of noise and vibration level standards on the performance and lifespan of FF157 hard tooth gear reducers

The noise and vibration level standards have a significant impact on the performance and lifespan of FF157 hard tooth gear reducers, as follows:

Impact on performance

Transmission accuracy: Excessive noise and vibration levels usually indicate significant instability factors in the gear transmission process. If there are errors in gear meshing or misalignment of the shaft system, it will lead to a decrease in the transmission accuracy of the reducer, affecting the normal operation and performance of the equipment.

Transmission efficiency: Excessive vibration and noise can increase friction and energy loss between components such as gears, reducing the transmission efficiency of the gearbox. For example, the impact and vibration during gear meshing can cause some energy to dissipate in the form of heat energy, rather than being effectively used to transmit power.

Operational stability: Excessive noise and vibration may affect the operational stability of the gearbox, leading to problems such as increased vibration, loose components, and even equipment failure, affecting the continuity of production.

The impact on lifespan

Gear wear: Excessive vibration can exacerbate tooth surface wear and fatigue pitting, and even increase the risk of tooth breakage. Because vibration can cause uneven distribution of contact stress between gear tooth surfaces, resulting in excessive local stress and accelerating wear and damage to the tooth surfaces.

Bearing life: Abnormal vibration can accelerate the fatigue fracture of bearing balls and cages, shortening the service life of bearings. Bearings are important supporting components in reducers, and the shortened lifespan of bearings will directly affect the overall lifespan of reducers.

Box damage: Long term vibration transmission may cause equipment anchor bolts to break or foundation cracking, and may also cause cracks or deformation in the box, damaging the structural integrity of the box and affecting the normal operation and service life of the gearbox.

Seal failure: Excessive vibration amplitude can damage the oil seal structure and cause lubricant leakage. Leakage of lubricating oil can lead to poor lubrication of components such as gears, further exacerbating wear and shortening the lifespan of the gearbox.
