  • Selecting an Appropriate Gear Reducer
    The selection of an appropriate gear reducer can be a daunting task for a design engineer because there are a myriad of potential gear reducer designs and products that may appear to satisfy design requirements. On one hand, a gear reducer that is over-designed for the application may result
  • What Are Planetary Gear Reducers?
    Planetary gear reducers are compact components that strive to maximize the transmission of torque in various applications. The mechanisms ensure the transmission of high torque levels while simultaneously decreasing the required number of motor revolutions for a set level of power. The reducers
  • Gear Reducers 101: Back to the Basics
    Gear reducers convert high-speed rotational energy from an input or driving device, such as a motor, to an output or driven device, such as a shaft. These devices reduce the output speed of the motor with a proportional increase in output torque using two or more gears configured to obtain
  • What Gearing Types are Typical of Fractional Horsepower Motors
    Originally, gears and the structure that houses them (called gearheads, gear reducers or gearboxes) were created for two main reasons: 1.To increase motor torque. 2.To enable more adjustments to be made to a motor's speed. However, advancements in technology has enabled gearboxes to make additional
  • Reducing Gear Rattle
    Another glaring problem in the field of gear assembly that can lead to reduced life of both parts and machine - gear rattle.
  • Gear Noise
    There are several causes of noise. The noise and vibration in rotating gears, especially at high loads and high speeds, needs to be addressesd. Following are ways to reduce the noise. These points should be considered in the design stage of gear systems.
  • Reducing Gear Manufacturing Costs at Turning
    The management of gear manufacturing costs is a complex process. It is more than just the standard action process that gears take in their production.
  • Lubrication of Gears
    The purpose of lubricating gears is as follows: 1. Promote sliding between teeth to reduce the. coefficient of friction (m). 2. Limit the temperature rise caused by rolling. and sliding friction. To avoid difficulties such as tooth wear and premature failure, the correct lubricant must be chosen.
