Spur gear module 3 z=12 with hub

Product Description

Spur gear module 3, z=12, with hub

The module 3 spur gear z=12 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

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.

How does a module gear differ from a chain sprocket?

A module gear meshes directly with another gear or gear rack, while a sprocket works with a roller chain - they have a different tooth profile and are not interchangeable, even though they look similar from a distance.

How can a module gear be secured against sliding along the shaft?

Besides a key or a clamping bush, set screws (locking screws) in the hub, thrust washers or retaining rings are also used - the choice depends on whether the transmission operates under variable axial load.

How do you set the correct centre distance between two module gears?

The centre distance is the sum of the pitch diameters of both gears divided by two (a = (Dp1+Dp2)/2); too small a distance causes seizing, and too large a distance - excessive backlash and loss of quiet running.

Where is this product used?

Used in the construction and servicing of gear reducers and gear transmissions for agricultural and construction machinery, and wherever precise and repeatable torque transmission matters.

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.
