Warm reduction gear and lubricant

It is necessary to select the lubricant based on the type of reducer, load conditions, and ambient temperature.

The worm gear reducer generates more friction and heat compared to other reducers, so it is necessary to use lubricating oil that meets the required conditions. Generally, there are two methods of lubrication for reducers: splash lubrication and circulation lubrication. The Bellpony reducer adopts the former, splash lubrication method. Splash lubrication involves a portion of the worm wheel being submerged in oil, and as it rotates, oil is supplied to the meshing area while centrifugal force from the rotation splashes the oil in a droplet form to lubricate the bearing area as well. **Necessary properties of lubricating oil for reducers:** - Viscosity - High oil film strength - Rust prevention - Defoamability - Antioxidant properties - Extreme pressure properties - Water separation properties *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*
