The units of the agricultural machinery function under extreme conditions: at high loads, frequent temperature drops, in dusty environment.
The designers of the enterprises producing equipment for combines and tractors seek for the solutions which would enable to improve reliability of mechanisms operation.
In order to prolong service lifetime of the worm pair in the steering, they have started using MODENGY 1005 anti-friction solid-film coating based on molybdenum disulfide. It provides decrease of friction loss in the pair of worm-sector / gear wheel, and prevention of premature wear of the elements.
This product forms a resistant composite layer on the parts that performs separating functions, and prevents contact between the metal parts. This is especially actual under conditions of lack of lubricating liquid which can be caused by oil leakage out of the mechanism, or absence of an oil film after a long downtime of the machinery.
An important advantage of MODENGY 1005 is its dry texture which doesn’t accumulate dirt and small particles from the environment causing intensified wear of the worm pair. Due to this, the coating can be used in the open type worm reducers as an independent lubricating layer.
