What is the function of the reducer?

Answer:

Types of common reducers1) the main feature of the reducer is the reverse self-locking function, it can have a larger reduction ratio, the input shaft and output shaft are not on the same axis, nor on the same plane. But the general volume is large, the transmission efficiency is not high, the accuracy is not high.2) harmonic harmonic drive reducer is controlled by the flexible components to transfer elastic deformation and dynamic movement, small volume, high precision, but the disadvantage is the soft wheel limited life, impact resistance, rigidity compared with metal. Input speed can not be too high.3) planetary reducer has the advantages of relatively compact structure, small return clearance, high accuracy, long service life, and the rated output torque can be done a great deal. But the price is slightly expensive.
Types of reducersGeneral reducer with helical gear reducer (including parallel shaft helical gear reducer, worm gear reducer, bevel gear reducer etc.), planetary gear reducer, cycloid reducer, worm reducer, planetary frictioncvt mechanical machines.
The role of the reducer1) reduce the speed at the same time increase the output torque, torque output ratio by the motor output multiplication and deceleration ratio, but be careful not to exceed the speed reducer rated torque.2) the speed reduces the inertia of the load while the reduction of inertia is the square of the reduction ratio. You can look at the general motors have a value of inertia.
What is a reducer?Reducer is a power transmission mechanism, the use of gear speed converter, the number of motor rotation slowed to the desired number of turns, and get a larger torque mechanism.
