WPWEK70-120,WPWEK80-135,WPWEK100-155,WPWEK120-175,WPWEK135-200 Gearboxes are a common type of mechanical equipment that can be classified into different types according to different classification standards. Among them, according to the series of reducers, they can be divided into the following four types:
1. Cylindrical gear reducer
Cylindrical gear reducer is a common type of reducer, mainly suitable for low-speed, high torque transmission systems. Its structure is relatively simple, mainly composed of a pair of meshing gears and supporting shafts. According to the needs, single or double stage deceleration can be selected to achieve different deceleration effects. In cylindrical gear reducers, the arrangement of gears can be horizontal or vertical, depending on the specific requirements of the transmission system.
2. Bevel gear reducer
A bevel gear reducer is a transmission system used for high speed and low torque. Its structure is slightly more complex than that of a cylindrical gear reducer, mainly composed of a pair of bevel gears and a supporting shaft. The number of teeth of bevel gears is carefully designed to ensure good stability during high-speed operation. This type of reducer is suitable for applications that require high-speed rotation, such as aviation, energy, etc.
3. Planetary gear reducer
Planetary gear reducer is a compact and efficient type of reducer. Its main feature is the use of planetary gear structure, which combines the sun gear, planetary gear, and outer gear ring together to achieve deceleration effect. Planetary gear reducers have the advantages of high transmission efficiency, low noise and vibration, as well as small volume and weight. Therefore, it is widely used in high-precision transmission systems such as industrial robots, robotic arms, and servo systems.
4. Harmonic gear reducer
Harmonic gear reducer is a mechanical transmission device that uses a flexible wave generator to generate controllable elastic deformation of basic components, and uses this deformation motion for power transmission. Its main characteristics are having a large transmission ratio, small size, light weight, and high transmission accuracy. In the harmonic gear reducer, the wave generator is the core component, which can convert the input rotation into axial elastic expansion and contraction motion, and then achieve the deceleration effect through the meshing of the flexible wheel and the rigid wheel.
The above is the classification of the four major series of reducers, each type of reducer has its unique characteristics and application scenarios. When selecting a gearbox, it is necessary to make a selection based on actual needs to ensure that it can meet specific transmission system requirements.
