speed reducer for electric motor

Electric motors are everywhere. They power lots of things, from  toys to large factory machines. In other installations, these motors may be required  to run slower or operate with less power. That’s where a speed reducer is  going to  be  useful. WIFON  An Oily Tool That Controls How Fast an Electric Motor  Turns. Wuma specializes in the production of high quality speed reducers that can be  used on all kinds of fields, including our Speed Variator. These reducers are used to make machines more productivity and energy efficient.  Knowing  how to select a speed reducer and understanding why they benefit electric motors is critical for anyone working with  this equipment.

When searching for a speed reducer, there’re few important things you might want to consider. First,  test the size. Your speed reducer  should easily connect with your electric motor. If it’s  too large or too small, you won’t  be able to use it properly. You’ll also want to consider what speed  reducer you need. There are  various types, such as worm gear reducers and planetary reducers. Advantages Each has their own advantages. For instance, worm gear reducers are ideal for high torque but not so much  for  efficiency. In contrast, planetary reducers may perform  more efficiently and be better adapted to control of speed. For more information on types, take a look at our Planetary Gearbox.

What to Look for in a High-Quality Speed Reducer for Electric Motors

Next, look at the material. The use of  high quality materials will make the speed reducer serve  longer. Wuma makes use of durable materials that are up  for a beating. This makes it easier  on your wallet, as  you  don’t end up having to replace it often. Also, consider  the gear ratio. This is the amount  of times that the speed reducer reduces motor speed. A higher gear ratio corresponds to a slower output speed,  suitable  for jobs  that require more power.

The noise level is also important. Some speed  reducers can be  noisy, and that’s not ideal in whisper-quiet environments. Opt for models  that have been engineered to operate quietly. Finally, think about the  warranty. A reputable company,  such as Wuma, will provide a  guarantee that proves they believe in their product. This  will  provide you with some peace of mind to know that if things don’t work, at least your back  is covered.
