What are the precautions for the use of special greases?

2020-12-01 16:06:37

  Special grease is used in the lubrication and noise reduction of gears, pulleys, guide rails, chains, bearing drives under high temperature and high speed conditions, high-speed reduction motor metal gears, and worm gears and worms; it is widely used in industry, but in When using special grease, what should be paid attention to?

  1. Attach great importance to the replacement of special grease with new grease

  Because the type and quality of lubricating grease will continue to improve and change, when old machinery and equipment are changed to new lubricating grease, they should be tested first and then used before they can be used; when replacing new grease, the waste lubricating grease must be removed first, and the components tidy. When adding lubricating grease, the waste lubricating grease should be squeezed out, and the new lubricating grease should be seen at the grease outlet.

  2. Pay attention to adding and replacing special grease on time

  The addition and replacement time of lubricating grease should be determined according to the actual application conditions, which not only ensures reliable lubrication but also does not cause grease consumption.

  3. The amount of lubrication added should be moderate

  Too much grease will increase the friction torque, increase the temperature, and increase the amount of grease consumption; while the amount of grease is too small, it will not be able to obtain reliable lubrication and cause dry friction. Generally speaking, the suitable amount of grease is 1/3~1/2 of the total void volume in the rolling bearing. However, depending on the specific situation, sometimes it is necessary to apply grease on the edge of the rolling bearing to implement cavity lubrication.

  4. Attach great importance to the management method of the whole process of adding special grease

  Before receiving and adding lubricating grease, pay strict attention to the cleaning of containers and special tools. The grease supply port on the machinery and equipment should be cleaned and cleaned beforehand, and resolutely prevent the infiltration of machinery and equipment residues, dust and sand.

  5. Pay attention to avoid the mutual use of different types, models and new and old special greases

  Avoid cross-application of grease containers and special tools, otherwise, it will cause negative effects such as drop point drop, penetration increase and mechanical equipment stability decrease.

  6. Grease cannot be packaged in wooden or paper containers

  Avoid special greases that lose oil and become hard, penetrate into water or become mildewed by environmental pollution, and should be stored in a cool and dry area.

  7. Pay attention to the timely replacement of grease in season

  For example, the temperature difference between winter and summer in the natural environment where the machinery and equipment is located changes greatly. If the winter grease is used in summer or vice versa, the result will be more than the loss.

Pay attention to the above matters when using special grease, so as to facilitate the better use of special grease.
