Can vertical and horizontal motors be installed and used interchangeably?

Vertical and horizontal, is the more common type of installation of motor products, from the motor shape structure observation, two kinds of motor seat, end cover will have obvious differences.

The most representative feature of the horizontal motor is that the motor shaft is parallel to the ground during the operation of the motor.

Vertical motors are mainly installed with end caps as parts, and sometimes need to be installed with the aid of the chassis, and the shaft is perpendicular to the ground during the operation of the motor.

In addition to the difference in appearance characteristics, most of the vertical motors and horizontal motors have certain differences in internal structure, mainly in the bearing system of the motor.

For small-size motors, the two mounting methods can be interchanged as long as the installation conditions are met, because there is no essential difference between the bearing systems of the two; but for most motors, the structure of the bearing systems of the two mounting methods is different.

For larger size vertical motors, because of the heavy rotor weight, the axial load capacity possessed by deep groove ball bearings cannot meet the safety of their vertical operation, and thus need to be satisfied by angular contact ball bearings or other bearing combinations.

In small and medium-sized motors, angular contact ball bearings are used as the locating bearings of the motor, and the locating bearings may be at the shaft extension end of the motor or at the non-shaft extension end of the motor.

i.e., they may be at the upper part of the motor or at the lower part of the motor; however, the basic idea of bearing installation is to "suspend" or "lift" the rotor of the motor through the bearings.

The basic idea of bearing installation is to "suspend" or "lift" the rotor of the motor by the bearing to ensure the safety of the stator and rotor axial fit during the operation of the motor.

In the actual manufacturing and application process, the use of angular contact ball bearing motor, whether stored, test or use, must be in accordance with the actual use of the state, the motor tilt, inverted, and horizontal state, can lead to serious problems with the motor bearing system.
