Spur gear module 1 z=85 plate wheel

Product Description

Spur gear module 1, z=85, plate wheel

This module 1 gear (85 teeth, plate wheel) is used wherever reliable, maintenance-free power transmission through involute meshing is required. The base material is C45E structural steel (EN 10083-1) - a proven choice for gear transmission parts operating in European industry.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

How do you mount a module gear using clamping rings?

These rings are slid between the plain shaft and the plain bore of the gear. When the screws are tightened, the ring expands and locks the gear with a force many times greater than a traditional key. This is the ideal solution for module gears operating with changing direction of rotation (no backlash at the key).

How can wear of the gears in a module gearbox be diagnosed?

Wear is easiest to spot from a change in the tooth profile - it becomes sharp at the tip, and the backlash increases dramatically, which shows up as loud knocking when the machine changes its direction of rotation.

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 does the pressure angle mean in module gears and why is it usually 20°?

The pressure angle defines the inclination of the tooth flank. In European industry the standard is 20°, because it provides the optimal balance between tooth root strength and quiet gearbox operation. This avoids the phenomenon known as tooth undercutting on smaller gears.

Where is this product used?

Module gears of this type are used in speed reducers, machine gearboxes, CNC machine tools and in rack drives of sliding and entrance gates.
