Gearbox Motor Conveyor Equipment Manufacturers Association Introduces Innovative New Products
Gearboxes, also known as enclosed gear drives or speed reducers, are mechanical drive components that can control a load at a reduced fixed ratio of the motor speed. The output torque is also increased by the same ratio, while the horsepower remains the same. Typical applications are used with electric motors for reducing the output speed and increasing torque. Gearboxes are used on conveyors, packaging machines, rotary tables and more!
Helical gearboxes offer less vibration, wear, noise and tend to have a longer life. Helical Gearboxes are the most expensive, so the question is: what is the trade-off between the price and cost savings through efficiency and is less vibration, wear, noise and longevity important in your application? We offer straight-through helical gearboxes with cast-iron frames. The output shaft is parallel to the input.
Studies state that Helical Gearboxes are the most commonly used gear in transmissions. Helical gearboxes offer less vibration, wear, noise and tend to have a longer life. First, we inspect the gearbox for any damage that may have occurred during shipment. Clean the gearbox if needed now and during maintenance. Do not allow chemicals on the seals as they can cause seals to deteriorate and leak. Our Cast Iron Helical models include a vent plug that may be plastic like this one, or brass like this one.
Make sure you don't add too much oil because it will cause overheating and can cause seals to leak while too little oil will result in gear failure. To insure the proper amount of oil, mount the gearbox, determine the vent plug, gauge and drain plug locations and fill or drain the oil to the proper amount recommended in the user manual. It is very important to use the proper lubricant when adding or changing the oil. Recommended oil types and brands are specified in the user manual.
We also have pulley two, and we know the diameter of this pulley as well. Again, this is either from manufacturer's data or measured. And we also know the center distance between these two pulleys. Now, I've used a couple of symbols here. So we've got this symbol here, which this is widely used for engineering, and this means diameter, so the distance from one side to the other of the circle here.

I've also color-coded the numbers here, as many as possible just to make it that little bit easier, and I've also split the screen into metric and Imperial, so whichever units of measurement you're using, you can follow these through.
We already know what pulley one diameter is, also what pulley two diameter is, and we also now know the belt length, but we do not know what the distance between these should be. So you can see from this formula here that this one's a bit more complex. Don't worry if this scares you, and you're not so hot in your maths.

We're just gonna minus these two here as well as multiplying these two brackets, or the figures within them, and we'll also going to add these figures here as well. And for the next part, we're just going to square this top bracket here on the top of the division there or the numerator.
Then we'll just do the division between these, and obviously, as these are, I've forgotten to put inches on these ones, but as these are the same units, they just cancel out and become a ratio, or a percentage.
