Recommendations

Monitoring of this motor & gearbox configuration shows no thermal anomalies. Bearing or winding problems can cause excessive surface heat to build up. No action required. Conveyor bearings can also be monitoring in this way.

Recommendations

Due to the looseness of these V-belts excessive heat build up is noted along their length and around the pulley. Extreme misalignment problems can also cause similar characteristics. An inspection of the belts and re-tensioning was recommended.
