What causes smoke during the use of a speed machine?
Smoke emitted by a speed reducer during operation is truly a headache. What causes this? Here's an analysis: 1. The ambient temperature is too high, exceeding 40℃, causing excessive heat in the speed reducer's intake air and making heat dissipation difficult. Cooling measures should be taken. 2. Damaged or excessively worn bearings cause the stator and rotor to rub against each other. Check for loose bearings and improper assembly of the stator and rotor. 3. Broken bars in the squirrel-cage rotor or loose coil connections in the wound rotor cause excessive current and overheating. Repair or replace copper bar rotors; replace cast aluminum rotors. 4. Incorrect winding connections, such as connecting a star configuration as a delta configuration or vice versa, will cause overheating under rated load. Check and correct these errors. 5. The internal fan of the speed reducer is damaged, installed backwards, or missing. Install it correctly, and repair or replace any damaged fans.
