In the field of industrial grinding, the power transmission method directly determines the efficiency, reliability, and operating costs of equipment. Traditional large-scale grinding equipment generally employs a complex transmission structure of "motor + reducer + open gear," whose inherent energy loss, frequent maintenance, and oil leakage risks have become bottlenecks restricting production efficiency and profit margins.
The core breakthrough of the MTW series European-style mill lies in its revolutionary bevel gear transmission technology, achieving ultimate energy efficiency from the power source and leading a quiet, powerful, and sustained efficiency revolution.
I. Bevel Gear Transmission VS Traditional Transmission
To understand the advantages of the MTW mill, it is essential to first understand the drawbacks of traditional transmission systems.
• Traditional transmission path (complex and inefficient): Motor → Reducer → Drive shaft → Large open gear → Grinding roller.
• MTW bevel gear transmission path (direct and efficient): Motor → Vertically mounted bevel gear assembly → Grinding roller.
This fundamental difference in structure leads to a dramatic difference in performance. Below, we will analyze in detail the five core advantages of bevel gear transmission technology.
II. Five Core Advantages of Bevel Gear Transmission Technology
Advantage 1: Significantly Improved Transmission Efficiency and Drastically Reduced Energy Consumption
• Technical Principle: The vertical bevel gear transmission system boasts an extremely compact structure and a significantly shortened transmission chain, virtually eliminating mechanical energy losses in multi-stage transmissions.
• Value Proposition: Transmission efficiency is increased from less than 90% in traditional methods to an astonishing 98% or more. This means more electrical energy is directly used for material grinding rather than wasted energy, resulting in a substantial reduction in power consumption for the same output, directly saving customers considerable operating costs.
Advantage 2: Lifetime Maintenance-Free, Achieving Ultimate Reliability
• Technical Principle: The entire transmission system is sealed within the gearbox, employing an advanced thin oil lubrication solution. Compared to traditional grease-lubricated open gears, lubrication is more thorough and even, with virtually no risk of oxidation or leakage.
• Value Proposition: Achieves lifetime maintenance-free operation. Customers no longer need to worry about gear wear, regular lubrication, or troubleshooting oil leaks, greatly reducing maintenance workload and unnecessary downtime, ensuring continuous and stable operation of the production line. This is particularly suitable for large-scale grinding equipment projects with extremely high equipment reliability requirements.
Advantage 3: Extremely Smooth Operation, Low Vibration and Noise
• Technical Principle: The precision meshing of the bevel gears and the integral housing structure provide superior rigidity, ensuring smooth and stable power transmission and eliminating the impact and vibration caused by the backlash in traditional open gear systems.
• Value Proposition: Significantly reduced vibration and noise during equipment operation. This not only creates a more user-friendly working environment but also greatly reduces fatigue damage to the main unit and foundation structure caused by vibration, extending the overall service life of the machine and improving the fineness and uniformity of the finished powder.
Advantage 4: Compact Structure, High Space Utilization
• Technical Principle: Eliminating the bulky reducer and large open gear pair, the entire transmission assembly is cleverly designed with a small footprint.
• Value Proposition: Provides greater flexibility in the layout planning of the entire grinding system, helping to create a more compact and rational production line, especially suitable for installation or upgrades in space-constrained plant areas.
Advantage Five: Powerful Power, Providing a Solid Foundation for High Yield
• Technical Principle: The bevel gear drive boasts excellent torque capacity, delivering direct and powerful power output without any slippage.
• Value Proposition: Provides a continuous and stable power source for the grinding unit, ensuring the grinding rollers apply sufficient grinding pressure to the material. This is one of the fundamental reasons why the MTW European-style mill can increase output by up to 30% compared to traditional equipment at the same power, fully unleashing its production potential.
