Spur gear module 3 z=100 plate wheel

Product Description

Spur gear module 3, z=100, plate wheel

The module 3 gear shown, 100 teeth, plate wheel, is a basic element of module drives - it works 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 do you choose the gear material (C45E steel, stainless steel or plastic) for specific operating conditions?

C45E steel is a universal choice for most industrial drives, stainless steel performs well in humid or aggressive environments, and plastics are used for lower loads or when quiet running and lubrication-free operation matter.

Why is the pilot bore in a module gear often smaller than required?

A "rough" bore allows you to bore it out yourself to the exact, non-standard size of the customer's shaft - a ready-made large bore from stock would rarely match the required size perfectly.

What is profile shift and when is it used?

It is a slight shift of the tooth profile relative to the standard profile, used mainly with a very small number of teeth to avoid undercutting the tooth root; in typical stock applications it is not required.

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.

Where is this product used?

Used in industrial machine drives, gate and industrial door automation and as a spare part for existing module gear drives - you only need to keep the same module and pressure angle.

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.
