gear

The hourglass worm technology is used to achieve simultaneous meshing of 5 to 11 tooth surfaces. Compared with the traditional cylindrical worm, the output torque and impact load resistance are improved by more than 40%.

gear

Equipped with anti-aging NBR double lip skeleton oil seal, effectively block 99% of sand, dust and water vapor intrusion, prevent internal grease pollution, adapt to outdoor harsh conditions.

gear

Through the precision grinding process, the gear clearance is strictly controlled within 0.05 degrees, which reduces the transmission return difference, eliminates the jitter of the equipment operation, and improves the repeated positioning accuracy by 50%.

gear

The ring gear and shell are made of 42CrMo quenched and tempered steel, the raceway is treated by medium frequency induction hardening, the surface hardness reaches 55HRC to 62HRC, and the fatigue life is extended to 30 years.

gear

The worm gear structure has a natural reverse self-locking feature, which can automatically lock the position when the power is cut off or the strong wind load is encountered, and no additional brake system is required to ensure the safety of the equipment.

This Slew Drive Bearing adopts a highly integrated modular design compared to the traditional split slewing bearing solution. It integrates the slewing bearing, worm, shell and drive motor interface, which not only compresses the installation space by more than 50%, but also completely solves the problem of difficult axis alignment of split components during installation, and greatly reduces the purchaser’s assembly cost and time. In terms of transmission performance, different from the traditional straight tooth transmission, the worm gear structure of this product provides a greater reduction ratio and torque density. The unique hourglass envelope design doubles the contact area of the tooth surface and can withstand greater axial force, radial force and overturning moment. It is especially suitable for low-speed and heavy-duty industrial applications and has static self-locking security that traditional gearboxes cannot match.

solution

Addressing internal wear caused by seal failure in harsh environments

The fully enclosed shell with IP65 double lip seal ring completely eliminates the abrasive wear caused by sand entering the raceway, and solves the problem of short life of traditional open gears.
solution

Solve the safety hazard caused by the lack of self-locking when the heavy load is stopped.

Using the self-locking characteristics of the worm gear, the risk of accidental slippage of the lifting equipment or photovoltaic bracket due to gravity or wind in the non-working state is solved.
solution

Solving transmission abnormal noise caused by poor coaxiality of multi-component assembly

The integrated manufacturing process ensures the best meshing clearance between the worm and the ring gear, and solves the noise and vibration caused by the difficulty of ensuring the coaxiality in the field split installation.

Photovoltaic and Photothermal Tracking System Manufacturers

It is suitable for the rotation drive of single-axis or double-axis solar tracking bracket. The high-precision angle adjustment ability ensures that the solar panels are always perpendicular to the light, increasing the power generation efficiency by more than 15%, and the 30-year design life meets the long-term operating requirements of photovoltaic power plants.

011

Before installation, the surface of the mounting seat shall be cleaned to ensure that there is no welding slag or burr, and the flatness error shall be controlled within 0.1mm to prevent the deformation of the base from causing the bearing to jam.

022

The specified torque value must be achieved by using Class 10.9 or Class 12.9 high strength bolts with hard plain washers in three times (30%, 80%, 100%) in diagonal cross order.

033

When installing the drive motor, it is necessary to eliminate the tooth side clearance between the worm and the ring gear by adjusting the eccentric mechanism to ensure that the hand feeling is uniform and there is no obvious block when manually turning the worm.

044

Raceway and tooth surfaces are pre-greased, and it is recommended to refill with extreme pressure lithium grease every 500 hours of operation or every 6 months until new grease escapes from the sealing lip to drain the old oil.

Welcome to our Frequently Asked Questions page. We have compiled answers to common questions you may have, hoping to provide you with clear and quick solutions. If you cannot find the information you need here, please feel free to contact our customer support team.

Q1: What is the typical design life of a Slew Drive Bearing?
Under normal maintenance and rated load conditions, the design life of industrial-grade products is usually 10 years, while the design life of special models optimized for the photovoltaic industry can reach 25 to 30 years.
Q2: Can this drive device be installed vertically?
It can be installed vertically, but it must be stated when ordering, because vertical installation requires a special grease retaining structure and reinforced sealing design to prevent the loss of grease above and cause dry grinding of the top raceway.
Q3: Does the product include a drive motor when it leaves the factory?
Standard products usually contain adapter flanges for direct connection to hydraulic motors or servomotors. We also offer integrated solutions for matching DC motors, AC motors or hydraulic motors.
Q4: How to judge how much output torque my equipment needs?
When selecting the model, the maximum working load of the equipment and the overturning moment generated by the wind load should be calculated. It is recommended to select the model with a safety factor of 1.5 to 2.0 to cope with the impact load at the moment of starting.
Q5: If the sealing ring is damaged, can it be replaced on site?
Can be replaced. Our sealing structure adopts a detachable design. Without disassembling the entire drive unit, professional maintenance personnel can remove the old seal and install a new sealing strip on site.
Q6: What are the main differences between SE series and WE series?
SE series adopts fully enclosed shell design with high protection level and is suitable for outdoor dusty environment. WE series is usually designed for heavy load, with larger worm size, which is suitable for heavy industry scenes requiring extremely high torque but slightly lower protection requirements.
