Selection example

conditions

  • ・Machine name: Mixer (kneader)
  • Motor: 0.2kW, 1450 r/min
  • ・Output shaft rotation speed: 1.45 r/min
  • ・Output shaft torque: 605N
  • ・Output shaft load: Radial load 500N
  • ・Operating time: 10 hours/day
  • ・Number of startups: 1 time/hour
  • ・Other: Hollow/Vertical

Selection

1. Specification: Decide on A, B, C, or X type

Based on the machine used, we chose Type C: Eco specification, which prioritizes gear strength.

2. Determining Service factor

According to the load classification table by machine (Table 2), mixer (kneader) = load characteristics: M, and according to Service factor table (Table 1), sf = 1.25.

3. Determining the correction torque

Correction torque is calculated from Service factor and load torque.

Corrected torque = 605N・m × 1.25 ≒ 726N・m

4. Deciding the reduction ratio

The reduction ratio is calculated from the motor rotation speed and output rotation speed.

Reduction ratio = 1450 r/min ÷ 1.45 r/min ≒ 1000

5. Deciding on size

C type: Select a size that satisfies the correction torque and reduction ratio from the characteristics table.

Size: SWGM100HC - 1/1000 Motor: 0.2kW

6. Check the shaft load

A radial load is generated on the output shaft, and check whether it is within allowable load.

Radial load: 500N < Allowable radial load = 6478N

7. Deciding on size and model number

Based on the above, model number SWGM100HCV1000RF(LF)020 was selected for vertical mounting (V type) and hollow (H).
