To the outsider, the world of gear cutting and gear machining is a complex one.Highly specific types of gears (which are made of differing materials, with a largevariety of specifications) are required for every type of machine you can imagine. The sizes of a gear can range from those that […]
Getting the right gear design is a matter of real importance when you are preparing specifications for a new piece of machinery. Some engineers prefer to use their own gear designs, others work in partnership with the gear manufacturer. If you are looking to generate your own gear drawings there […]
The angled way in which teeth are cut for helical gears means they are a quieter gear than the spur gears. The angle cut to the face of the gear creates a more gradual engagement of the gears and are found in almost all car transmissions. Again, the angle means […]
