Reasons for oil leakage in geared motors

Gear motors are a large category in the motor industry. Gear motors are used in many occasions. Therefore, it is very helpful to understand the knowledge and skills of gear motors. When using a geared motor, people often report some problems, such as oil leakage in the geared motor. what is the reason? In fact, there are many reasons for the oil leakage of the geared motor. In summary, they are the following. If you want to know, you can continue to look down.

1. Fuel tank pressure rise: If the oil pressure in the fuel tank of the mechanical equipment itself rises to an abnormal level, it is easy to cause the oil leakage of the gear motor. As we all know, gears and bearings will wear out during the operation of gear motors. Friction also produces a thermal effect, so the temperature in the fuel tank rises and the oil pressure rises, causing oil to leak. .

2. Unreasonable structure design: The structure of gear motors designed by some manufacturers is inherently unreasonable, which will also cause oil leakage during use of the gear motor. For example, if some gear motors are not equipped with a vent hood, the gear motors will naturally not achieve pressure balance during operation, and the local oil pressure will suddenly rise at a certain moment, resulting in oil leakage.

3. Too much fuel. Some people cannot control the amount of oil added when filling the gear reducer. Adding too much oil will cause the oil of the gear reducer to leak. When refueling, don't say that the liquid level is full, but keep a certain distance.

The above are the main reasons for the oil leakage of the geared motor. For gear motors, ensuring that there is no oil leakage is a relatively basic condition. In this regard, we should pay full attention to the specifications during normal use and use geared motors reasonably to ensure that it does not leak oil.
