PRECISION DRIVE
Key Takeaway:The shorter the acceleration time, The higher the inertial torque, May trigger alarms, Shock Loads, Noise, Temperature rise or reduced service life.
Why Acceleration Time Affects Torque?
Accelerating a load from rest requires overcoming rotational inertia. The shorter the acceleration time, The higher the required acceleration, And the greater the inertial torque.
How This Affects the Gearbox?
Peak torque limits may be exceeded, Gear Impact Loads, Higher Bearing Loads & Temperature Rise.
How to Optimize?
Allow longer acceleration and deceleration where cycle requirements permit, Then recheck peak torque and inertia matching.
How to Apply This Information to Selection?
Do not make a final selection from a single parameter. Review the motor model, Load, Target Output Speed, Torque, Inertia, Check acceleration/deceleration time and mounting interfaces together, Then select the series and model.
