Failure modes and maintenance of gears
Tooth surface pitting: Long term alternating stress leads to fatigue peeling of the tooth surface.
Tooth surface wear: Poor lubrication or foreign object intrusion can cause tooth surface wear.
Common failure modes:
Tooth surface pitting: Long term alternating stress leads to fatigue peeling of the tooth surface.
Tooth surface wear: Poor lubrication or foreign object intrusion can cause tooth surface wear.
Tooth root fracture: Overloading or stress concentration can cause tooth root fracture.
Adhesive bonding: Tooth surface adhesion damage under high-speed heavy load.
Maintenance measures:
Regularly replace lubricating oil and maintain cleanliness.
Avoid overloading or impact loads.
Regularly check the wear of the tooth surface and gear clearance.
Regularly run in and adjust high-precision gears.
