Spur gear module 1 z=68 with hub

Product Description

Spur gear module 1, z=68, with hub

The module 1 spur gear z=68 with hub is a precision gear transmission component designed to transmit high torques at a constant ratio. The standard material is C45E steel (UNI EN 10083-1), widely used in the construction of gear transmissions, gear racks and module drives.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

In which applications do helical module gears perform well?

Helical teeth ensure smoother engagement, which drastically reduces noise and vibration at high rotational speeds. They are used in precision speed reducers and machine tools, bearing in mind, however, the need to use thrust bearings (absorbing axial forces).

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.

What is backlash and why does it matter?

It is a small gap between mating teeth, necessary for lubrication and thermal tolerance; too little backlash leads to seizing and overheating, while too much leads to jerking and faster tooth wear.

Do you make module gears to special order?

Yes. In addition to ready-made gears from our warehouse, we can manufacture non-standard CNC gears based on your technical drawing. And if the machine is at a standstill and time matters to you, we will produce it using 3D printing from glass-fibre-reinforced materials.

Where is this product used?

Typical applications include conveyor drives, packaging machines, industrial automation and positioning systems using a gear and gear rack pair.

When placing your order, please check the current stock level of this gear - the lead time depends on it and is clearly stated according to the quantity available in the given warehouse.
