Spur gear module 3 z=72 plate wheel

Product Description

Spur gear module 3, z=72, plate wheel

Gear module 3, z=72, plate wheel - a robust component for building and repairing gear transmissions, gear reducers and rack drives (rack + gear). The base material is C45E structural steel (EN 10083-1) - a proven choice for gear transmission parts operating in European industry.

Frequently asked questions

Can a module gear be ordered with a number of teeth outside the standard catalogue range?

Yes, in addition to ready stock we also produce CNC gears to order with a non-standard number of teeth, and for short lead times we additionally print them using 3D technology from glass-fibre-reinforced plastics.

What does it mean when the gear "skips" teeth under load?

Most often it is a sign that the transmitted torque exceeds the tooth strength for the given module, or that the backlash is too large - in both cases continued operation leads to the teeth breaking off quickly.

How can you check whether two module gears will mesh with each other?

There is one absolute condition: both gears must have exactly the same module (e.g. m=2) and the same pressure angle (standard 20°). If the modules differ by even a fraction of a millimetre, the teeth will start to shear and the gearbox will be destroyed.

What should I do if I need a non-standard module that is not currently in the standard range?

If time is short and you need a specific size, we offer professional 3D printing from modern glass-fibre-reinforced materials. It is an outstanding, durable solution for an urgently needed spare part, for prototyping or for gears with lower loads, allowing you to restore continuity of operation very quickly.

Where is this product used?

It performs well in power transmission systems in machine tools, production lines and sliding gates, where it works together with a gear rack of the same module.

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.
