Now days many number of people are suffering from gearbox problems. Breaking of gear tooth and some hassles are the reason of gearbox failure. A special care is needed to build gear box like building of an engine. A major portion that is 19% failure comes from the misalignment of gear. A quite small part that is 3% failure is related to starting torque. Another deficiency is manufacturing an error which is 6% but it has minor significance. Some common gearbox problems are- • Slipping Transmission • Wrong Fluid • Hard Shifting • Differential vs. Transmission • Pink Stink • Some General Problems Both the bearings and gear are affected by misalignment. It is one of the most common causes for failure of gearbox. Gearbox misalignment also suffers from the thermal growth. It also results severe damage on larger industry units. Rolling bearings are most commonly used and very small bearings are used for simplicity and larger sized are used for some improved performance. Rolling bearings have some sensitive effects like debris, contamination, lubrication deficiencies, misalignment, shock and vibration. Thermal instability becomes more common in different class of machinery and gearboxes also. The failure occurs due to the temperature difference between shaft inside the bearing and bearing’s housing surrounding. This will result for the heat generation and increased by differential temperature. Lateral and Torsional vibration always comes with surprise and it occurs in the machinery of higher stresses, power and speed. If someone suspects a torsional vibration it is necessary to test gearbox shaft or drive shaft with an instrument and to measure it. Unexpected loads can occur from a different reason like flexible couplings, cardan shafts, and electronic motors of over sized, locking of torques and deflections of shaft torsional. 25% of the gearbox failure occurs from contamination and lubrication. Mainly the problems related to gearbox are frequently with bearings and gears. For more details, visit: BMW X5 gearbox.
