Spur gear module 1 z=20 with hub O3D PA12-CF15

Product Description

Module gear 20 teeth, module 1, with hub - 3D printed PA12-CF15 composite, O3D

The O3D spur gear module 1 with 20 teeth is a module gear with hub, 3D printed from PA12-CF15 composite, i.e. nylon (polyamide 12) reinforced with carbon fibre. It has an outer diameter of 22 mm and a O8 mm pilot bore that you can ream to the size of your shaft. A light and quiet gear for transmissions with light and medium loads.

Technical parameters of the spur gear module 1, 20 teeth

Where can this plastic gear be used?

A gear made of carbon-fibre-reinforced plastic transmits drive in gear trains with light and medium loads, for example in applications such as:

• printing and bookbinding equipment
• mechanics of electronic devices
• power tools
• positioning drives and actuators
• glass and ceramics processing machines
• radio-controlled modelling
• test and laboratory set-ups

Questions and answers about the spur gear module 1

Which tooth counts are available for module 1?

Yes. In module 1 we offer gears with hub from 8 to 248 teeth, in steps of one tooth. All of them are made of the same PA12-CF15 material.

What does the tooth surface of a printed gear look like?

The surface is slightly rough due to the carbon fibre content of the material. The print layers are invisible or barely noticeable.

Will a transmission with an O3D gear be noisy?

Usually yes. Plastic dampens vibrations and tooth impacts, so plastic-plastic and steel-plastic pairs run noticeably more quietly than a steel-steel pair.

Can you make a gear based on a drawing or a sample?

Yes. Send us a technical drawing or the data of the old gear and we will reproduce it by 3D printing.

Can I buy an identical gear later?

Yes. We produce every gear according to the same design and inspect it after production, so with your next order you will receive a gear with the same dimensions.
