For more information, see the instruction manual provided with the product.

Maintenance

Conducting daily maintenance requires only that the operators use measuring tools and their senses. Check the following.

  • ・Noise ...Make sure that noise is not louder than usual and that there are no periodic abnormal sounds.
  • ・Vibration ...Make sure there is no abnormal vibration
  • ・Temperature ...Make sure the motor temperature is not higher than usual.

Lubrication

1. Grease lubrication

Grease lubrication system is used for lubrication.

2. Grease filled

A specified amount of lead-free grease is already injected prior to delivery. Use the motor as is.

3. Grease replacement

Grease does not need to be replaced or replenished in most cases, but it will last longer if it is replaced around 20,000 hours. Grease replacement is available at our repair shop for a fee.

4. Grease quantity

(H:Hollow shaft 、U:Face mount )

Motor Capacity Frame number Reduction ratio Grease quantity
kg
H U
0.2kW 20 22 1/10 ~ 1/25 0.27
1/30 ~ 1/60 0.23
0.4kW 30 28 1/10 ~ 1/50 0.33
0.75kW 35 38 1/10 ~ 1/30 0.67
1/30 ~ 1/50 0.53

5. Oil seal

A contact-type oil seal is used to seal the shaft of the speed reducer housing.

In most cases, it is not necessary to replace the oil seal. If the oil seal is replaced after 10,000 hours of operation, though, the life of the reducer will be prolonged.

Because the life of the oil seal depends on usage conditions, there may be cases where the oil seal needs to be replaced before 10,000 hours of operation.

Also, when using the product with food processing machines, especially those devices with which oil must not be used, install an oil pan or other damage prevention equipment to prepare for the rare occurrences of oil spills caused by issues such as malfunctions and the oil seals reaching the end of their service lives.

※In rare cases, grease discharges from the oil seal lip at the beginning of startup. This is only excess grease from filling during the assembly process; it does not indicate a function failure of the reducer.
