Maintenance and care tips for electric gear motors

1. Common faults of electric gear motors
During long-term use, electric gear motors may have some common faults, mainly including:

Excessive noise: The electric gear motor makes too much noise during operation, which may be caused by gear wear, poor lubrication or loose motor parts.
Overheating: Overheating of the electric gear motor may be caused by excessive load, high ambient temperature or internal motor failure.
Performance degradation: After long-term use, wear of the gear system, aging of the lubricating oil and other reasons may cause the performance of the electric gear motor to deteriorate, which is manifested as insufficient power output or unstable speed.

2. Maintenance of electric gear motors
In order to ensure the stable operation of electric gear motors, enterprises should regularly perform the following maintenance and care:

Regularly check the motor and gearbox: Regularly check whether the motor and gearbox of the electric gear motor have abnormal wear or looseness, and repair them in time.
Lubrication and maintenance: The lubricating oil inside the gearbox needs to be replaced regularly to avoid gear wear due to poor or insufficient oil quality. Depending on the use environment, the replacement cycle of the lubricating oil should also be adjusted in time.
Cleaning equipment: Keep the exterior of the electric gear motor clean to prevent dust and dirt from affecting the heat dissipation effect of the motor. Especially when used in high temperature and high humidity environments, cleaning should be strengthened.

Monitor the working temperature: To prevent the electric gear motor from overheating, a temperature monitoring instrument can be installed on the motor, and an overheating protection device can be set to prevent overload damage.
Check the electrical system: Regularly check the electrical system of the electric gear motor to ensure that the power connection is stable and the cable is not damaged to avoid current fluctuations causing faults.

3. Tips for extending the service life of the electric gear motor
Avoid overload operation: Try to avoid the electric gear motor working under overload to avoid problems such as overheating and damage.
Reasonable selection: Select a suitable electric gear motor according to actual needs to ensure that its performance matches the workload and reduce the degree of wear of the equipment.
Environmental optimization: Provide a suitable working environment for the electric gear motor to avoid the impact of extreme conditions such as humidity, overheating or overcooling on the equipment.
