Meaning of Letters and Numbers in Reducer Model Numbers
Meaning of Letters and Numbers in Reducer Model Numbers
Taking the reducer model ZLYN125-20-1 as an example:
ZLY: Hardened surface cylindrical gear reducer
N: Equipped with a backstop (non-reverse device)
125: Center distance
20: Gear ratio
1: Assembly configuration
Reducers play a crucial role in matching the speed and torque transmission between the prime mover and the working machinery or actuators. It is a relatively precise machine, designed to reduce speed and increase torque. Reducers come in many types and models, each serving different applications.
Supplementary Information: Classification of Reducers
Reducers are highly diverse. Based on the transmission method, they can be classified into gear reducers, worm gear reducers, and planetary gear reducers. Based on the number of transmission stages, they are divided into single-stage reducers and multi-stage reducers. According to the gear shape, they can be categorized as cylindrical gear reducers, bevel gear reducers, and bevel-cylindrical gear reducers. Based on the layout of the transmission device, they are classified as expanded type, split-flow type, and coaxial reducers.
