Common faults in the use of gear include the following: tooth surface wear: Due to factors such as working load and use time, gear tooth surface will wear, resulting in reduced transmission efficiency. Solutions include timely replacement of severely worn gears, reasonable lubrication and maintenance of gears. Broken teeth: The gear may break teeth when it is subjected to excessive impact load or abnormal load. The solution is usually to replace or repair the gear with a broken tooth and adjust the drive system to avoid another broken tooth. Poor guidance: Poor guidance can lead to asymmetrical gear axes, which in turn affects transmission efficiency and stability. Solutions include adjusting the mounting position of the gear and repairing or replacing the parts associated with it. Surface damage: The gear surface may be damaged due to particles, rust, corrosion and other reasons. The solution can be to regularly clean and lubricate the gear surface to prevent it from being eroded by external substances. Too large or too small axial clearance: Improper axial clearance may lead to gear installation position deviation or normal operation. The solution includes adjusting the axial clearance to the appropriate range and ensuring the accuracy of the gear installation. These gear failures need to be assessed and dealt with on a case-by-case basis, and it is recommended to seek the help of a professional when solving the problem to ensure that the problem is addressed effectively.
