Product Description
Benefits of Gearboxes in Agricultural Machinery
Optimal speed and torque control: This is the most critical advantage. Agricultural operations are diverse, ranging from high-speed seeding to low-speed, high-torque tilling. The gearbox converts the high-speed, low-torque output of the tractor engine or power take-off (PTO) to the precise speed and torque required by the farm implement. This ensures efficient operation, prevents overspeed damage, and provides the necessary power for demanding operations.
Directional conversion: Many farm implements need to transmit power at a certain angle (such as 90 degrees) relative to the input shaft. Gearboxes, such as bevel gears or right-angle gearboxes, can effectively achieve this direction conversion, supporting a variety of machine designs.
Power distribution: In complex machinery, a single gearbox can distribute power to multiple shafts or components, ensuring that various parts of the farm implement operate in sync, such as different rotors on a hay tedder or multiple augers in a combine harvester.
Enhanced durability and service life: Agricultural gearboxes are made with extremely rugged manufacturing processes to withstand the harsh conditions of farming operations. With rugged housings (cast iron or aluminum), high-strength heat-treated steel gears and heavy-duty bearings, they withstand heavy loads, shock, vibration, dust, dirt and moisture. This means longer service life and less downtime.
Protects the prime mover: By providing the proper speed and torque ratios, and often incorporating safety features such as shear bolts or slip clutches, the gearbox protects the tractor's engine and power take-off system from overloads and excessive stress, significantly extending its service life and reducing repair costs.
Improves efficiency and fuel economy: The gearbox enables the implement to run at optimal speed and torque, minimizing energy waste. This means more power to perform the task and less loss, which improves the tractor's fuel efficiency.
Versatility and adaptability: Gearboxes come in many types (spur, helical, bevel, worm, planetary) and can be configured with different ratios and mounting options. This versatility allows manufacturers to design a specialized gearbox for nearly any agricultural application, ensuring optimal performance for specific tasks and implements.
Reduced Noise and Vibration: Modern gearbox designs, especially those that utilize helical or spiral bevel gears, provide smoother gear meshing, resulting in quieter operation and lower vibration than simpler gear types.

Gearboxes in Agricultural Machinery
Tillage and Soil Preparation:
Rotary Tillers/Rotary Tillers: The gearbox drives the rotating teeth that break up and aerate the soil.
Tillage Machines: In some active tillage machines, the gearbox powers the soil gripping components.
Seeding Equipment:
Drills and Planters: The gearbox precisely controls the metering mechanisms for seed and fertilizer, ensuring accurate spacing and application rates.
Fertilizer Spreaders: Drive the rotating discs or augers for even distribution.
Harvesting Equipment:
Combine Harvesters: Drive the cutting knives, threshing drums, cleaning fans, and the delivery system for grain, corn, or soybeans.
Hay Balers: Power the pick-up mechanism, compression chamber, and knotting system.
Forage Harvesters: Drive the cutting, chopping, and blowing units for silage production.
Root Crop Harvesters: Used to dig, separate and convey crops such as potatoes.
Mowing and Vegetation Management:
Rotary Cutter/Brush Sweeper: The transmission drives the vertical shaft that rotates the cutting blades for clearing dense brush.
Flail Mower/Stalk Chopper: Transmits power to the horizontal rotor that shreds crop residue.
Precision Mower: Drives blades for precision mowing lawns and fields.
Material Handling:
Grain Augers and Conveyors: Used to move grain from the harvester to storage or transportation sites.
Feed Mixers/Feed Wagons: Drive mixing augers or spreading devices for livestock feed.
Manure Spreaders: Power manure distribution systems.
Specialty Farm Equipment:
Diggers: The transmission connects the power take-off (PTO) to the vertical auger.
Sprayers: Power pumps or boom folding mechanisms.
Snowblower: drives the auger and impeller to remove snow.

POWER To ensure the correct use of the product we recommand to pay attention to the specifications mentioned on our technical sheet.Consider also the input rotation speed,the power input and the transmission ratios.Where the rotation or other working conditions are different,please contact LongQuan technical department.
LUBRICATION
The reducer is usually supplied without lubricant.The recommended quantity of lubricant is indicated on our catalogue and the first replaced must be done after 50-60 hours of running,then replaced after 600-800 working hours. The emptying of the gearbox should be made immediately after the working,with the oil still hot,in order to avoid the deposition of sludge.Check frequently the oil level and top up the oil whenever necessary.
