industrial gearbox and its applications

What is industrial gearbox?

An industrial gearbox is an enclosed system that transmits mechanical energy to a transmission unit. The system slows down the speed and torque of rotation. Industrial gearboxes are different from standard gearboxes, as the former needs a long, stable life and safety factor for most of the drives. To control speed and torque and convert it functionally, an industrial gearbox transmits mechanical power into a driving tool. In contrast to mass gearboxes, industrial gearboxes can handle multiple tasks at extremely high speeds over a long period. Read more here

What do you know about industrial gearbox? In this article, we intend to introduce the industrial gearbox and its applications. Read this article to the end.

A transmission is a machine in a power transmission system, which provides controlled application of power. Often the term 5-speed transmission refers simply to the gearbox, that uses gears and gear trains to provide speed and torque conversions from a rotating power source to another device.



The U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has successfully demonstrated a new gearbox design developed by the Gearbox Reliability Collaborative (GRC), with a predicted lifetime 3.5 times greater than the previous, conventional design. NREL established the GRC in 2007 to address the failure of many wind turbine gearboxes in achieving their intended design life, despite meeting then-current design standards and third-party certification criteria.

Introduction of electric motors and types

Image
  You've probably heard of electric motors by now. A critical piece in all electrical appliances. In this article, we will introduce electric motors in detail and examine its types, so stay tuned. An electric motor is a component that converts electrical energy into kinetic energy. Most electric motors are  electromagnetic -based. Most electric motors are rotary, but there are also linear motors. In a rotating motor, the moving part (usually inside the engine) is called the impeller or rotor, and the fixed position is called the station or stator. The motor consists of electric magnets wound on a frame. Although this frame is often referred to as armature, the term is often misused. Types of Electric Motor Electric motors may be classified by considerations such as power source type, internal construction, application and type of motion output. In addition to AC versus DC types, motors may be brushed or brushless, may be of various phase (see single-phase, two-phase, or three-...

Introduction and review of Suspension Insulators and Strain Insulators

Image
  In this article, we will have a detailed explanation and review of Suspension Insulators and Strain Insulators. Join us and read this article. First, we will introduce Suspension Insulators, and after reviewing it, we will submit Strain Insulators What is Suspension Insulators  ? The suspension type insulator consists of several insulation parts connected in series and forms a string. In suspension insulators, each porcelain discs is designed to work at 11 kV, and as the operating voltage increases, the number of discs in the string and in series increases as well. For example, the number of insulator discs required is 12 in 132 KV transmission lines.  Read More in Linquip What is Strain Insulators  ? According to  Wikipedia , A strain insulator is an electrical insulator designed to work in mechanical voltage (strain) to withstand the pull of a suspended electrical wire or cable. They are used in overhead electrical wiring to support radio...

Everything you should know about HVAC

Image
What is HVAC? What do you know about it? What is its use? In this article, we will take a closer look at HVAC, so join us to get the answers to these questions and any other questions about HVAC. The importance of HVAC Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) is the technology of indoor and vehicular environmental comfort. Its goal is to provide thermal comfort and acceptable indoor air quality. HVAC system design is a subdiscipline of  mechanical engineering , based on the principles of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer. As was mentioned earlier, an  HVAC system  is intended for thermal control of areas as well as comfort for occupants. Temperature is factor that affects the performance and health status of many systems. Take the case of a server room temperature as an example for which high temperature adversely affects the system’s reliability and operation of the servers is a great source of heat ge...
