What is the adjusting shim between the end cap of the reducer and the bearing housing?

Answer:

Adjusting shimUsed to adjust the clearance of bearings!Tapered bearings are radially and axially simultaneously adjusted!
The adjusting shim between the end bearing and the bearing seat of the reducer is characterized by shock absorption, wear resistance and corrosion resistance.Gear reducer definition:Reducer in the prime mover and working machine or actuator between the matching speed and torque transfer role, reducer is a relatively precise machine, the purpose of using it is to reduce speed, increase torque. According to transmission series can be divided into single and multi-stage reducer; gear wheel factory according to the shape can be divided into cylindrical gear reducer, bevel gear reducer and bevel gear-cylindrical gear guide wheel reducer; according to the arrangement of transmission can be divided into expansion, split and same shaft type speed reducer. The reducer is a kind of independent parts enclosed by a rigid shell gear, worm gear, gear - worm gear reducer, commonly used as a prime mover and work machine. It plays an important role in matching speed and transmitting torque between prime mover and working machine or actuator, and it is widely used in modern machinery.
The name is adjusting shim, in fact, it is to adjust the distance between the bearing end cover and the bearing seat. Thus, the clearance of the shaft in the bearing seat is adjusted so that the shaft is stable at the time of operation.There are two situations that require adjustment of clearance:First, the initial assembly. Because parts manufacturing and processing always have errors, so the shaft and bearing and bearing block assembly is not necessarily the best, it is necessary to adjust the gap. Neither too tight or too loose again.Two is the operation time is long, the Bush will have a little wear and tear, but not yet to the point of replacement, but after wear, the shaft and the bearing seat gap between the big, the operation accuracy will drop, the stability also decline. At this point also need to adjust
