How should the slewing drive be lubricated correctly?

During the use of the slewing drive, selecting the appropriate lubrication method and ensuring sufficient lubrication can ensure the normal operation and use of the slewing drive and extend its service life. In the design phase of the slewing drive, the lubrication method can be determined according to the specific operating conditions, with the following considerations:

1. Working temperature and environment. In high temperature or low temperature environments, should choose suitable for high temperature or low temperature lubricants, in wet and dusty environments, should choose good water and dust resistance lubricants.

2. Speed of movement. For high speed gears, lubricants with lower viscosity should be selected to reduce friction and resistance, and lubricants with higher viscosity should be selected for low speed operation.

3. Load. For gears with heavy loads or large impact loads, lubricants with higher viscosity and strong load capacity should be selected. For gears with light loads, lubricants with lower viscosity should be selected.

4. Material and surface treatment. Choose the appropriate lubricant based on the material properties and surface treatment of the gear. For example, stainless steel materials should be lubricated with inactive or weakly acidic lubricants.

5.Maintenance. The quality and quantity of the lubricants should be checked regularly.

Choosing the appropriate lubrication method and ensuring sufficient lubrication volume require comprehensive consideration based on actual conditions. In practical operations, U-TRSM has a wealth of operational experience, and we also remind everyone to pay attention to safety and environmental protection to avoid harming the environment and human body.
