How to choose lubricating grease for different gearboxes

Sep. 23, 2024

As an important part of the mechanical transmission system, the performance and life of the gearbox directly affect the operating efficiency of the entire equipment. In various industrial and mechanical equipment, different types of gearboxes face their own unique lubrication challenges.


Common gearbox types and their oil pain points are as follows:

1. Worm gearbox

The tooth surface has a large contact area, a high sliding friction coefficient, and is prone to high temperatures. Ordinary lubricants are difficult to maintain a stable lubricating film at high temperatures, resulting in increased wear and oxidation of the lubricant, forming carbon deposits and sediments, and affecting operating efficiency.

Use high-performance fully synthetic worm gear lubricant with excellent oxidation resistance, high temperature resistance and wear resistance, effectively reducing wear and extending equipment life.

 

2. Spur and helical gearboxes

High speed and high load operation cause the oil temperature to rise. Ordinary lubricating oil is prone to failure at high temperature, causing pitting and wear problems.

Choose a fully synthetic gear oil with a high viscosity index, especially one that contains extreme pressure additives to form a protective film under high temperatures and loads to prevent wear.

 

3. Planetary gearbox

Multi-gear transmission systems are complex and have changeable working conditions, which are prone to problems such as uneven lubrication, unstable high-temperature oil film, wear and abnormal noise.

Use fully synthetic gear oil with anti-emulsification and good extreme pressure performance to ensure a stable oil film and good low-temperature fluidity, reduce low-temperature starting resistance and improve efficiency.

 

Reasonable selection of lubricating oil can not only reduce gear wear and noise, but also extend the service life of the gearbox.
