Spur gears are the most easily visualized common gears that transmit motion between two parallel shafts. Because of their shape, they are classified as a type of cylindrical gears. Since the tooth surfaces of the gears are parallel to the axes of the mounted shafts, there is no thrust force generated in the axial direction. Also, because of the ease of production, these gears can be made to a high degree of precision. On the other hand, spur gears have a disadvantage in that they easily make noise. Generally speaking, when two spur gears are in mesh, the gear with more teeth is called the “gear” and the one with the smaller number of teeth is called the “pinion”.

As with most of our gear products, our background in producing worm and worm gear sets puts us one more step ahead. We will produce worm gears up to 36" in diameter, and up to 8 starts. Again using the CNC gear hobber's we can handle higher helix angles and number of starts. We manufacture worm gears from all types of materials, bronze, plastics, stainless steels, ductile irons, cast irons and alloy steels, for all types of applications

Worm screws are used to transfer force and motion between two perpendicular shafts 90° from each other; in other words, this turns a radial motion on the x axis to a radial motion on the y axis.

Internal and shoulder type helical gear cutting is one way we do that. Using our new Mitsubishi ST-40 CNC gear shaper, rather than fixed guides, saves our customers months of time, and thousands of dollars to produce prototype, and short run production parts.

These gears can be run in sets and matched together using our Gleason motorized test machines assuring that the tooth contact bearing is correct with, and without loading, backlash between mates is correct to the mounting distance, and that the noise level of the gear doesn't exceed manufacturing requirements.

A spiral bevel gear is a bevel gear with helical teeth. The main application of this is in a vehicle differential, where the direction of drive from the drive shaft must be turned 90 degrees to drive the wheels. The helical design produces less vibration and noise than conventional straight-cut or spur-cut gear with straight teeth.

The herringbone gear consists of two sets of gear teeth on the same gear, one right hand and one left hand. Having both hands of gear teeth causes the thrust of one set to cancel out the thrust of the other. Thus, another advantage of this gear type is quiet, smooth operation at higher speed.

A rack and pinion is a type of linear actuator that comprises a circular gear (the pinion) engaging a linear gear (the rack), which operate to translate rotational motion into linear motion. Driving the pinion into rotation causes the rack to be driven linearly. Driving the rack linearly will cause the pinion to be driven into a rotation. A rack and pinion drive can use both straight and helical gears.

We has been manufacturing Conveyor Idlers for over 6 decades. Developments made and experience gained over the years have inabled us to offer most relaible and well-designed idlers for bulk material handling systems. Our manufacturing programme covers idlers for capacities between 50 TPH and 100 TPH and wide range of different types of idlers to handle coal, iron ore, fertilizer, lignite, cement and other such bulk materials.

A conveyor will always consist of at least two pulleys, head pulley and tail pulley, with additional pulleys used depending on the configuration. Standardduty pulleys are usually adequate for simple applications, but mine-duty and engineered pulleys are also available where heavy duty pulleys are require.

A grating is any regularly spaced collection of essentially identical, parallel, elongated elements. Gratings usually consist of a single set of elongated elements, but can consist of two sets, in which case the second set is usually perpendicular to the first (as illustrated).[1] When the two sets are perpendicular, this is also known as a grid (as in grid paper) or a mesh.
