The Role And Classification Of Reducers

The reducer is a relatively precise piece of machinery, and the purpose of using it is to reduce the rotational speed and increase the torque. (Note: Reducer torque calculation formula)
It comes in a wide variety of models and has different uses. There are many types of reducers, which can be divided into gear reducers, worm reducers and planetary gear reducers according to the type of transmission;
According to the different transmission stages, it can be divided into single-stage and multi-stage reducers; According to the shape of the gear, it can be divided into cylindrical gear reducer, bevel gear reducer and cone-cylindrical gear reducer; According to the transmission
The layout form can be divided into unfolded, shunt and coaxial reducers. The following are commonly used reducer classifications:
1. Cycloidal reducer
2. Hard tooth surface cylindrical gear reducer
3. Planetary gear reducer
4. Soft tooth surface reducer
5. Three-ring reducer
6. Crane reducer
7. Worm reducer
8. Shaft-mounted hard tooth surface reducer
9. Continuously variable transmission
