FGE Series FGE14 Slewing Drive Reducer For Vacuum Truck
Vacuum truck swing drive reducer
Swing drive reducers are commonly used in vacuum trucks, vacuum-controlled trucks, and combination trucks. They transfer vacuum to other equipment, such as turntables or booms. Here is more information about these drives and how they work.
Swing drive reducer
A rotary drive reducer is a mechanical device that transfers torque from one engine to another. Depending on the application, the rotary drive may be a bevel gear, spur gear, or worm gear. These drives can be single row or double row. Double-row gears are more suitable for handling large loads. This product is essential in aerial work vehicles because safety is crucial.
Variable transmission swing drive has the advantage of being compatible with many applications. For example, the worm gear rotary drive has a more significant reduction ratio than the tooth type rotary drive. Compared with the latter, this design has several advantages, including better bearing capacity and transmission stiffness.
Rotary drive mechanism
Swing drives are used to move large machines. They are costly to maintain and produce harsh noise. They may also cause vibration and jerk motion. Therefore, it is essential to select a reliable rotary drive. These rotary drive mechanisms have various sizes, shapes, and configurations.
There are two main types of swing drives: horizontal and vertical. The former has a single-row ball slewing bearing, and the latter has a double-row ball slewing bearing. These two driving mechanisms have their advantages and disadvantages.
Swing drive applications
Rotary drive applications in vacuum trucks have several distinct advantages. They are compact rotating systems that allow the structure to move and are well suited for critical environments. These devices suit various applications, including aerial platforms, public transport, and forestry equipment. The rotary drive provides the strength and accuracy required to handle heavy loads and high-speed rotation.
Rotary drive technology is also an ideal choice for auxiliary construction machinery equipment. They are designed to be more user-friendly and have a more significant reduction rate than their counterparts. These drives also allow engineering machinery auxiliaries to have better positioning accuracy.
Drive as-swing
When the vacuum truck needs to move objects quickly and smoothly, the rotary drive part is an integral part of the vacuum truck. The rotary drive allows the outer ring to rotate and output torque through the flange. Then fix the inner belt to the housing.
The swing drive may be hydraulic or electrical. The former has a lower pour point and requires more oil for operation, but the latter can withstand high back pressure. The hydraulic rotary drive is also very universal and easy to maintain. They can be used for aircraft, wind and photovoltaic generators, and even construction machinery.

Application
hzpt slewing drive is a gearbox designed to handle radial or axial loads using high rotational torque. In addition, the slewing ring bearing, at the heart of the drive, enables it to withstand high overhung or moment loads. A descendant of the "worm" screw, slewing drives are present in construction machinery, manufacturing, equipment, and many other applications that require strength and precision.
The physics of the slew drive makes it a versatile solution for many applications. In operation, the slew drive's axial movement, or motion around its axis, interacts to create radial torque. The action occurs by meshing the grooves of the horizontal screw with the teeth of a perpendicular gear. While turning, the worm gear's axial movement transfers magnified torque force to the radial gear. The number of threads on the horizontal screw and the number of gears that interact will determine the speed ratio of the setup.
Slewing drives are available in many configurations depending on the task at hand. These may be single-axis or dual-axis turning in unison.
