■ Assembling Precision
During the assembly, if there are abnormalities such as deformation of the mounting surface and reluctant assembly, the product performance will be degraded or even damaged. As shown in the figure below, the following table is the recommended accuracy of the assembled shell.
the data in ( ) is the value of the integrated wave generator
■ Installation Method and Step
The installation method of motor installation must be applied when assembling the motor to speed reducer
Installation Method and Step as below.
(Circular spline fixed, flex spin output, the speed ratio is standard ratio)
■ Method 1
①Install the flange for motor mounting on the mounting surface of the motor.
②Mount the wave generator to the output shaft of motor.
③Assemble the mainframe of the speed reducer.
④Set the speed of the motor around 100r/min. start the motor. Fasten the screw in cross way, increase evenly 4 to 5 times to match the locking force of the screw. To prevent failure or loosening during work, all screws must be grade 12.9 and coated with Loctite 242 thread-locking fluid.
■ Method 2
① Install the flange to the mainframe of the speed reducer.
② Install the wave generator to the output shaft of the motor.
③ Install the flange for motor mounting on the mounting surface of the motor.
④ Set the speed of the motor around 100r/min. start the motor. Fasten the screw in cross way, increase evenly 4 to 5 times to match the locking force of the screw. To prevent failure or loosening during work, all screws must be grade 12.9 and coated with Loctite 242 thread-locking fluid.
Remark:
Please fill the gap between the wave generator and mounting flange of motor with grease when the wave generator facing up or down.
■ Installation Precaution
The speed reducer may vibrate and cause abnormal noise when assemble in the wrong way, please comply with the below precautions.
■ Precaution of wave generator
1. Avoid overload pressed on the position of wave generator bearing when assembling. The wave generator can be inserted smoothly by rotating.
2. Please pay attention to control the influence of center offset and skew within the recommended value, when using integrated wave generator.
■ Precaution of circular spline and flex spline
1. Make sure the surface of installation is flat, not slanting.
2. Make sure there are no upheaval, rough edges and foreign matters in the hole of the screw.
3. Make sure there are chamfering processing and avoiding processing on the position of case installation, to avoid interfere with circular spline.
■ Precautions for Grease
1. The flexible bearing needs to be evenly coated with grease, and the cavity formed by the connection between the motor and the mounting flange needs to be filled with 80% grease.
2. The inner wall of the flex spline needs to be evenly coated with grease, and the cavity formed by the connection between the flex spline and the flange needs to be filled with 80% grease.
3. The performance of grease will change by temperature, the higher the temperature, the faster the deterioration. In order to ensure the grease always in good condition, the heat balance temperature of the high temperature section of the reducer should be lower than 70°C, and the temperature rise should be lower than 40°C.
4. The wear of each moving part of the reducer is mainly affected by the performance of the grease. The grease should be replaced every 3000 hours of operation for the harmonic drive if possible.
■ Other Considerations
1. To avoid damage during use, the harmonic drive must be installed under a clean environment, and no foreign matter can enter the reducer during the installation.
2. Please make sure the surface of the gear and flexible bearing of the reducer always fully lubricated. It is not recommended to make the face of the tooth always facing upwards, which will affect the lubrication effects.
3. Install the flex spline and circular spline on the device firstly, then assemble the wave generator.
4. When install the machine, the long axis of the wave generator is aligned with the long axis of the flexspline of the reducer. Then fix the reducer with the corresponding screw, and tighten the it slightly.
5. Please confirm that engagement between the flex spline and circular spline are 180° symmetrical, after assembling of the wave generator.
6. Once finish installation, please run it at a low speed (100rpm) first, if there is abnormal vibration and noise, please stop it immediately, and check whether the installation is correct or not , or contact us. To avoid damage from incorrect installation.
7. The requirements for the installation plane for reducer are: flatness 0.01mm, perpendicularity to the axis 0.01mm, and concentricity of the threaded hole or through hole to the axis 0.1 mm.
8. To prevent grease leakage and maintain the durability of the reducer, corresponding sealing mechanisms must be used for different positions, such as: oil seals for rotating motion, O-rings for mating surfaces of various parts, and screw glue for screw holes.
9. Please strictly follow the pocket hole of the reducer in the drawings to confirm the design of the flange and wave generator. If the exceeded pocket hole, it will cause interference between the flexspline and the flange or the wave generator, affect the service life of the reducer.
10. The installation design of the reducer should be according to the installation depth requirements of the wave generator. The different installation depth of the reducer.
11. There is no anti-rust treatment on the surface of the reducer. If rust prevention required, apply the rust inhibitor to the surface.
