What factors will affect the lubrication effect of the precision gear?

You need to use your lubricating oil in the process of use, so what factors will affect the lubrication effect of precision gear?

Let's take a look at it together.

1, strike load: for example, the legal power issued by the engine, which requires relatively heavy oil to prevent the instantaneous fragmentation of the oil film and the boundary lubrication, because only very few lubricating oil can be left.

In this case, a lubricating oil containing an extreme pressure additive (EP) is required.

2, load (pressure): high viscosity oil than dilute oil is more able to resist the weight and prevent the collision between metal and metal.

Therefore, light load requires low viscosity lubricants, and high load requires high viscosity lubricants.

3, Speed: The faster the slide and rotation speed, the less time to squeeze between the precision gears into the lubricant.

At the same time, the lubricating oil is easier to block and thicken.

Therefore, use high viscosity (heavy oil) at low speed and low viscosity oil (thin oil) at high speed.

4, temperature: when the temperature drops, the lubricating oil will thicken.

When the temperature rises, it becomes thinner.

Therefore, low viscosity lubricating oil is required at low temperature conditions, while at high temperature conditions, heavy oil is needed to prevent dry friction between metal and metal.
