KM5035 Noise

[Tebow83]

Has anyone come across the noise in a 5035 when it get up to near the 1,000,000 mark??
I put new clutches and gears on and greased the shafts (duplex unit and feed sections) and it quitened down well but came back a few weeks later. Does anyone know what the proper type of grease is used by kyocera as i cant seem to get it in any parts manuals.
Cheers.

Just a suggestion, but try using silicon oil (fuser oil) instead of grease. It lasts a lot longer than grease and is just as slippery. Less messy, too.

did you check the all the fans in the back of the machine?..The fans get dirt or warp and make noise sometimes or all the time. The vibration of the machine makes it move. You will only notice it when you unplug the machine if the fins are broken.

No its not coming from the fans. I replaced the duplex with a newer less volume machine and the noise was gone. Its coming from the gears on the duplex under the metal plate beside the clutch.

I was looking at a new km5050, its nearly identicle and there is a thicker kind of grease on it. The stuff i used was automotive grease and it just dried up to quick.

i've had that issue and had to follow up on a few techs for noise. It dose come from the main drive pak like you stated, try the kyocera temperature 78 type grease. If its a highpitch squeek i've incountered drum blades to be the cluprit..

Cool, i will get my hands on that grease and try that. No its not the drum blade its a kinda hard to describe grinding noise. I was looking at the newer km5050 today and its greased so i presume through heavy use it wears off and causes the noise.

Due to slight variation in parts and/or assembly of MIDDLE FEED UNIT and Vertical Feed Unit, the Mount (No. 3) and Vertical Feed Gear (B) may interfere with each other, causing abnormal noise to generate. As a preventative measure, the following modifications are carried out.
Please note that there will be no installation compatibility between the new and old parts after this change.


[ Content of Change ]

The following measures are taken to prevent the Mount (No. 3) and Vertical Feed Gear (B) from interfering each other.

<Temporary Measure> - Except for KM-3050/4050/5050, FS-9130DN/9530DN that
are modified from initial mass production

1. A new Stopper (No. 1) is added to the Vertical Feed Unit to shift the position of
Vertical Feed Unit Gear (A, B) to the machine front section by 0.5mm.

<Permanent Measure>

1. Thickness (1.5mm) is added to the boss that secures Housing (No. 2) and Mount
(No. 3) to ensure that the Mount is positioned on the Count (A) by shifting the
position of Mount by 1.5mm to the machine rear section.

2. With the change 1 above, a new step (1.5mm) is added to the base of the Gear
installation pin on the Mount This will secure the original position of the Gear.

3. After the changes 1/2 above, the Stopper (No. 1) that was added as a temporary
measure is eliminated.
