A Few Suggestions For Speed Reduction Motor Selection

When choosing a geared motor, many users do not understand the performance and specifications of the motor, which prevents them from choosing the right type of motor. I would like to share with you today some suggestions on choosing a geared motor, which I hope will be helpful to you.

1. Mechanical size

(1) The maximum installation space that can be accommodated, including diameter, length, etc. 

(2) The size and mounting position of the screw, including its effective depth, pitch and size.

(3) the diameter of the output shaft of the product, as well as additional specifications such as positioning stops, plane positioning screws, pin holes, etc. Try to leave as much space as possible in the product design for product assembly so that more models are available.

2. Select electrical performance

(1) Evaluate the rated torque and speed. If you are unsure of your requirements, you can purchase samples by making reasonable estimates before conducting tests. Once forwarded to the supplier for testing and confirmation, all that is needed at this point is to provide the energizing voltage and operating current.

(2) The maximum current and torque allowed. Usually, we all think that the higher the torque, the better. But in fact, too much torque may damage the whole equipment system, reduce the life of the motor and gearbox, and destroy mechanical and structural components.

3、The choice of noise

(1) After the motor is installed to the product, an abnormal sound is found. In fact, this noise may not come from the product itself, but from various sources, such as resonance caused by high speed, resonance from direct rigid fit of gearbox and mechanical equipment, or dragging noise from eccentric load.

(2) In addition, the choice of the product itself requires strong technical support. For example, plastic gears usually produce less noise than metal gears, helical gears usually produce less noise than spur gears, and planetary gearboxes usually produce more noise than metal turbine worm structures. Of course, noise can be successfully reduced by optimizing the design and ensuring machining accuracy.

4、The direction of product development

(1) Such as various uses in various conditions, choose different geared motors. Different application areas have different design and use requirements, as well as different elements to consider, and the specific situation is analyzed.

(2) Usually, the engineer will customize the product according to several criteria of the customer to meet the specific needs of the guest.

The above is to introduce you to the selection of geared motor recommendations, I hope you have a reference, more information about the welcome to consult Vshida micro-motor at any time!
