Observing a couple of rules for accurate installation is essential to the dependable and appropriate operation of the gearbox or gear motor.
The rules set out listed below are meant as a preliminary manual to picking out gearbox or gear motor. For effective and right installation, observe the guidelines offered in the installation, utilize the maintenances manual for your gearbox readily available from our sales division.
Following is often a short outline of set up principles:
a) Fastening:
Place gearbox on the surface delivering ample rigidity. Mating surfaces should be machined and flat.
Mating surfaces needs to be inside definite geometric tolerances (see guide). This really is specially genuine of flange-mounted gearboxes with splined hollow shafts.
In applications that involve substantial radial loads on the output end, flange mounting is advised for some gearbox sizes as this mounting tends to make use of the double pilot diameters supplied in these gearboxes.
Make certain the gearbox is suitable for the expected mounting position.
Use screws of resistance class 8.8 and more than to secure the gearbox. Torque up screws towards the figures
indicated from the relevant tables.
With transmitted output torque better than or equal 70% on the indicated M2max torque, and with
frequent movement reversals, use screws with minimal resistance 10.9.
Some gearbox sizes may be fastened employing both screws or pins. Of pin seated within the frame the gearboxes be at the very least 1.five occasions pin diameter.
b) Connections
Safe the connection elements to gearbox input and output. Usually do not tap them with hammers or similar resources.
To insert these parts, use the support screws and threaded holes provided within the shafts. Make sure to clean off any grease or protects from your shafts ahead of fitting any connection parts.
Fitting hydraulic motors.
Be careful the O ring concerning motor flange and gearbox input flange when assembling. Set up the
hydraulic motor ahead of filling lube oil to the gearbox.
Connecting the hydraulic brake.
The hydraulic circuit ought to be this kind of to guarantee that brake is launched instants in advance of gearbox begins and applied immediately after gearbox has stopped. Test that stress during the hydraulic line for brake release is at zero when gearbox is stopped.
Direction of rotation
Motors are linked for the ideal electrical or hydraulic circuit in line with their course 
of rotation.
When performing these connections, bear in mind that all gearboxes, no matter whether in the in-line or proper angle style, possess the very same course of rotation each at input and output. For more particulars from the connection of electrical and hydraulic motors, see pertinent sections within this catalogue.
