A reduction motor is a transmission and reduction device gearbox that connects equipment or machines. The main transmission structure is integrated and assembled by a drive motor, a transmission shaft, and a gearbox. It has the functions of connection, transmission, deceleration, and torque enhancement. The deceleration principle is determined by the driving source. The power of high-speed operation is achieved through the gear with a small number of teeth on the input shaft of the reducer meshing with the large gear on the output shaft. Ordinary reducers will also have several pairs of gears with the same principle to achieve the ideal reduction effect. Large and small gears The ratio of the number of teeth is the transmission ratio. The main function of the reduction motor is to reduce the output speed (deceleration) and increase the torque (load capacity).
What is the use of reduction motor?
The role of the reduction motor is to increase the available output torque without increasing the motor power consumption, while maintaining a compact size. Geared motors are ideal for applications where high output torque is required in the smallest possible drive package, or where a reduction in motor output speed is required. Their high torque-to-size ratio makes them an ideal drive solution for tight spaces, or when the overall machine design needs to be optimized to minimize the motor footprint.
The inherent advantage of integral geared motors is that they can be used as torque multipliers and motor reducers, requiring less motor power to drive a given load. Gearbox design, gear type, gear lubrication and specific integration patterns all affect the performance and application suitability of the geared motor.
Geared motors are used in applications requiring high output torque and low output shaft speed, especially where space and available power are limited. This describes a variety of common device applications across multiple industries. From car wipers and window motors to hospital beds and patient lifts, from industrial robots to conveyor systems, gear motors are critical to the overall performance of the equipment we rely on every day.
