Four elements of gear motor selection

A gearbox motor is a component of a gearbox and motor. Such parts can also be called gearbox motors or geared motors, which are usually integrated and assembled by professional gearbox manufacturers and supplied in sets.

Geared motors are widely used as indispensable power transmission equipment for automated machinery and equipment, especially packaging machinery, printing machinery, corrugated machinery, color box machinery, conveying machinery, food machinery, three-dimensional parking equipment, automatic storage, three-dimensional warehouses, chemical, textile, dyeing and finishing equipment. Micro gear motors are also widely used in electronic locks, optical equipment, precision instruments, financial equipment and other fields.

Gear Motor

The selection of geared motors should be based on the principles of practicality, economy and correct selection of its power, type and model according to the production requirements to ensure the smooth progress of production.

1、Economic choice

Generally speaking, imported products are much more expensive than domestic ones, and those from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan are more expensive than those from MAINLAND China. (The specific situation depends on the specific needs of enterprises). Nowadays, most of the manufacturers in the gearmotor market, whether imported or domestic, have their own naming standards, so look for a sample of the gearmotor and choose the model according to the sample.

2、Type selection

There are two types of gear motors: cage and wire-wound. Cage-type geared motor has simple structure, easy maintenance, low price, but poor starting performance, can be used for no-load or light-load starting production machinery; wire-wound geared motor starting torque is large, starting current is small, but the structure is complex, startup maintenance trouble. It can only be used in lifting equipment and other occasions that require large starting torque, and it can also be used in mechanical equipment that requires proper speed regulation.
