1.Vertical slew drive concept        

The slewing bearing is used as the driving follower and mechanism attachment part of the vertical rotary drive. The slew bearing itself is a full circle rotary connector. The driving power source and main transmission parts are configured efficiently, which makes it a universal deceleration transmission mechanism with simple structure and convenient manufacturing and maintenance. It is a new type of rotary product, which is usually composed of slewing bearing, worm, motor, shell and other parts. It not only has the functions of connecting, rotating and supporting the slewing bearing, but also has the advantages of compact structure, large output torque and stable transmission of worm drive. It has the advantages of long service life, simple installation, large saving of installation space, easy maintenance, and great cost saving. In the fixed column slew bearing device, the column is fixed on the foundation structure. Fixed column slewing bearing device is often used in floating crane, sometimes it is also used in fixed crane.            

2.Structural characteristics of vertical slew drive            

The upper and lower supports are respectively installed on the upper and lower parts of the vertical slew drive column. The co rotating part similar to the "bell jar" is set on the column through the upper and lower supports, and the driving device rotates the "bell jar" to realize the rotary motion. Due to the high integration of the slewing drive, users do not have to purchase and process each part of the slew drive device one by one. To a certain extent, it also reduces the preparation process at the beginning of production, thus greatly improving the labor productivity. The vertical slew drive can be used in any situation that requires full circle rotation and speed change. When it is necessary to realize the power transmission of large slewing drive torque, high-precision motion transmission or the mechanism selection with high requirements for compact and integrated body structure, the slew drive is the best solution.

3.Application prospect of vertical slew drive            

Each industry has its own unique challenges, but almost all industries share the common goals of increasing machine uptime, reducing maintenance, improving safety, saving energy, and reducing total cost of ownership. The universality of application is an important condition to investigate the practicability of the product. The common applications of vertical slew drive are the full circle rotary structure of engineering and construction machinery, solar energy, wind energy and various long-term running automatic tracking machinery. Due to the compact structure and short transmission chain, the slew drive is easy to achieve high precision and easy to digitize Control, therefore, is also used in the field of industrial robots, support applications, machinery and equipment engineering, oil and gas, precision applications, transportation and transportation, renewable energy, construction and infrastructure.

Vertical slewing drive can improve labor productivity and integrate many functions. It has many advantages, strong practicability and easy operation. It is also very convenient to purchase.
