Spur gear module 3 z=40 with hub O3D PA12-CF15

Product Description

The O3D spur gear module 3, 40 teeth, is a light module gear with hub, 3D printed from PA12 nylon with carbon fibre (PA12-CF15). The outer diameter is 126 mm and the Ø20 mm pilot bore is prepared for reaming to the shaft size. It works well in transmissions with light and medium loads.

Technical data

Applications

A light nylon gear with carbon fibre works well wherever low weight, quiet operation and corrosion resistance matter, e.g. conveyors and transporters, small domestic appliances, small geared motors, automation systems in production plants, positioning drives and actuators, equipment for the glass and ceramics industry, light drives in agricultural and garden machinery.

Frequently asked questions

In which modules are O3D gears with hub available?

We offer O3D gears with hub in modules from 0.5 to 5, in steps of 0.25.

Is the gear solid inside?

Not entirely - and that is intentional. The inside of the gear is printed with a gyroid structure, which increases its strength. A fully solid gear would be too stiff and therefore more prone to breaking. We use full infill around the shaft bore, always over a diameter twice as large as the pilot bore - e.g. with a Ø15 mm bore it reaches Ø30 mm.

Is a printed gear suitable for use in a machine?

Yes. The gear is intended for normal operation in a machine - in transmissions with light and medium loads. It also works well in prototypes, but that is not its only use.

Can you make the gear from a different material?

Yes. If PA12-CF15 does not suit the operating conditions of your transmission, we will select another material and make the gear from it. Describe the application to us and we will propose a solution.

Can I buy the gear as a company?

Yes, we issue a VAT invoice for every order.

What does the lead time depend on?

When ordering, 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 each warehouse. The stock level is shown above the product price and may vary depending on the warehouse.
