Spur gear module 1.5 z=15 with hub

Product Description

Spur gear module 1.5, z=15, with hub

The spur gear module 1.5 shown, 15 teeth, with hub, is a basic component of module drives - it meshes with any other gear or gear rack (toothed rack) of the same module and pressure angle 20°. The gear is made of C45E steel (EN 10083-1); the involute tooth profile and 20° pressure angle ensure smooth, quiet meshing with gears or racks of the same module.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

How does manufacturing gears on CNC machine tools eliminate gearbox noise?

Old casting methods or milling on worn machines produce irregularities in the order of tenths of a millimetre. Our CNC machining ensures a perfect tooth profile. The gears roll on each other smoothly, which results in a dramatic drop in decibels on the production floor.

What lubrication is optimal for open module (rack) gear drives?

For open systems (gear + gear rack), it is best to use thick greases with added graphite or copper, which adhere firmly to the teeth and are not flung off by centrifugal force. In very dusty applications, dry Teflon lubricants perform better.

How do you measure a worn tooth to choose the right replacement?

It is best to measure the outside diameter (Dz) and count the teeth (Z), and calculate the module from the formula m = Dz / (Z+2); it is also worth measuring the bore diameter so that the replacement fits the same shaft without additional machining.

How do you calculate the ratio of a gear pair of two module gears with different numbers of teeth?

The ratio is calculated as the quotient of the number of teeth of the driven gear to that of the driving gear (i = Z2/Z1); the module must be identical for both gears, otherwise meshing will not work at all.

Where is this product used?

It performs well in power transmission systems in machine tools, production lines and sliding gates, where it works together with a gear rack of the same module.
