What noise reduction measures can be applied to ZS series soft tooth surface reducers
The noise reduction measures for ZS series soft tooth surface reducers are as follows:1. Optimization of gear design and processing: perform tooth top and root trimming and tooth end chamfering treatment on gears, adjust spiral lines, improve tooth surface smoothness, and use honing or precision grinding processes; Strictly control the tooth pitch and tooth profile errors, increase gear overlap, and reduce meshing impact and howling noise from the source.
2. Assembly and alignment calibration: Use a laser alignment instrument to calibrate the concentricity of the input shaft, output shaft, and motor shaft; Accurately control the gear backlash to ensure even distribution of contact spots on the tooth surface; Reasonably pre tighten the bearings, upgrade the bearing accuracy to P5 or P4 level, and reduce shaft runout and impact noise.

3. Lubrication system optimization: Select specialized gear oil with high viscosity index, anti-wear and extreme pressure performance; Using oil bath or splash lubrication to maintain the oil level specified in the equipment manual; Install splash plates to avoid insufficient local lubrication, upgrade to a labyrinth seal structure, and reduce noise generated by dry friction between tooth surfaces and bearings.
4. Structural vibration reduction renovation: adding reinforcement ribs or thickening the box wall to the gearbox body, spraying damping coatings or installing restraint layer damping; Replace the rigid support with an elastic support or rubber damping pad; The motor and reducer are rigidly connected and installed on the same base to attenuate vibration transmission and resonance noise of the casing.
5. Acoustic package noise reduction: Install a soundproof cover for the gearbox, and paste sound-absorbing cotton inside the cover; Seal the gaps at the connections of the sealed box to reduce noise leakage; Set up local sound barriers around the equipment, suitable for work scenarios that are sensitive to environmental noise.
6. Daily operation and maintenance control: Regularly use a sound level meter to detect A-weighted noise, record speed, load, measurement point location, and spectrum data; Replace gear oil and filter element periodically, check oil quality, oil temperature, and oil level; Timely clean the burrs and bumps on the tooth surface, replace worn bearings, tighten the anchor bolts and couplings, and avoid vibration and noise caused by looseness.
