Knowing how different types of gears work is key when opting for one or another in your industrial projects. What types of gears stand out in today’s industry? In addition, they stand out due to the great efficiency with which they deliver power, limiting energy loss as a result of a lower friction between its surfaces.
In a myriad of applications, geared transmissions are in charge of transferring the right torque provided by a motor, being, in fact, the most reliable, strong and resilient transmission systems. More specifically, we will focus on their terminology, gear formulas, and even aspects related to gear design that will help you prevent premature failures and perform an optimal gear calculation. In this article we discuss the key elements that will help you with the design of gears for your projects. Gears are a key component in a wide range of motion control devices, as well as in mechanical and electromechanical transmissions.
