Heat-resistant miniature gear motor reduces the risk of stoppage even in outdoor, high-temperature environments around industrial furnaces.
Gear Motor TA/TR Series
overview
The conveyors surrounding industrial furnaces required reliability to withstand long periods of continuous operation in a harsh environment, which involves not only high temperatures but also exposure to rainwater and dust due to outdoor installation.
Therefore, by employing a heat-resistant Gear Motor, lubrication and sealing performance are maintained even in high-temperature environments, ensuring stable operation.
Furthermore, the outdoor specifications and weather-resistant coating enhance waterproofing and dustproofing, suppressing corrosion and component deterioration.
This reduces the risk of failure even in conveyors where high temperatures and outdoor conditions coincide, contributing to the suppression of sudden shutdowns and a reduction in maintenance burden.
Problem
The conveyor belts surrounding industrial furnaces are in a harsh environment where high-temperature heat is constantly present. Standard Gear Motor are prone to reduced lubrication performance and component deterioration due to the heat, increasing the risk of drive problems.
Furthermore, because the equipment is installed outdoors, it is susceptible to environmental factors such as rain, wind, dust, and fluctuations in outside temperature, which could lead to corrosion and a decrease in sealing performance.
Conveyor systems often operate continuously for long periods, and a single stop can affect the entire line. Therefore, selecting a small gear motor with durability that can withstand both high temperatures and outdoor environments was a challenge.
