Mounting the gearboxes
Stop!
Shocks and impacts on the shaft damage the roller bearings.
¯
Draw the transmission elements onto the output shaft only by using the
centering thread.
¯
Align the gearbox shaft and transmission elements in an accurate fashion in order
to prevent tensioning.
¯
Mount belt pulleys, sprockets, or gear wheels as closely as possible to the gearbox
in order to keep the bending load of the shaft and the bearing forces at a
minimum level.
Gearbox with output flange
¯
Especially with regard to applications with an alternating load, Lenze
recommends...:
–
the use of anaerobic adhesive between the gearbox flange and mounting area
in order to increase the friction fit;
–
with steel or cast iron output flanges, the use of screws with a strength of 10.9
with correspondingly high tightening torques.

Maximum permissible load at the motor adapter
Stop!
¯ The loads generated by the motor mounted must be checked!
¯ The forces F
M
mentioned (see following tables) at the adapter must
not be exceeded!
For the effective force F
M
, static forces (e.g. weight) and dynamic forces (e.g.
acceleration forces, for example caused by vibrations or start−up processes) have to be
taken into consideration.
