Five Major Reasons Why The Reducer Bearings Of Electric Flatbed Transfer Carts Are Damaged?

This time, let’s take a look at the five major reasons why the reducer bearings of electric flatbed transfer carts are damaged? The bearings of the reducer are divided into radial or sliding. In fact, no matter what kind of bearing it is, its damage is usually caused by the following reasons.

1.Scratch:
Most bearings will be scratched more or less due to the injection of some foreign hard abrasive grains and lubricating oil into the bearings. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure the cleanliness of the system to avoid greater damage
2.Bruising and bonding:
Generally, this condition is caused by overheating. Due to melting, metal from high-temperature areas flows to low-temperature areas and then solidifies, causing scratches between the shaft and bearings. If it's small, it won't cause serious damage. If the scale is larger and the melting area is larger, it will cause damage to the entire bearing.
3.Fatigue:
Mechanical fatigue is caused by repeated cycles or reverse effects of stress. This stress can cause bearing rupture. The greater the load, the higher the shaft speed, and the shorter the service life of the bearing.
4.Corrosion:
Due to changes in bearing materials, the alloy composition of the bearing changes, and precipitates occur due to chemical or chemical effects on the metal surface.
5.Electrical corrosion:
The basic cause of electrical corrosion is electrolytic corrosion. Since the device contains more or less moisture or free moisture, as well as substances such as inorganic acids, the mixture of water and acid in the bearings tends to produce strong electrolytes, and there may be leakage currents on the ship. In the presence of electrolyte, the anode is usually subject to severe electrochemical attack. The bearing of the gear reducer can keep its internal lubricating oil from being lost during use, ensure its external dry lubrication state, and protect external dust or harmful gases from entering the inner cavity of the bearing to prevent damage.
