How to deal with pitting corrosion problem of gear reducer?

As one of the commonly used deceleration equipment in factory production workshops, the reducer should be controlled to control speed changes and heating failures caused by deceleration. Pitting corrosion is a destructive and insidious form of corrosion that is inevitable in chemical plant machinery. If similar pitting corrosion occurs in the reducer, what measures should be taken to deal with it? The editor will teach you two techniques today:

First, analyze the corrosion according to the material and deal with pitting corrosion in advance. The compliance of meshing material selection, workload matching, and timely treatment of heat dissipation are also among the many causes of corrosion problems.

Secondly, the correct selection of lubricating oil is also one of the factors leading to pitting corrosion. Usually, lubricating oil is added to the gears of the reducer to reduce the wear of the machine, but reasonable and compliant lubricating oil must also be selected.

The above solutions can solve the pitting corrosion problem of reducer in a timely and effective manner. So be sure to master them!
