When there is a huge temperature fluctuation in the application form environment, when the diameter is huge or when generally there is load upon its keyway, metallic hub made of S45C or stainless may sometimes be used. In these cases, the teeth portion and the hub part are attached as well as screws. If it’s extremely hard to screw together, two parts are fused with each other and made into fused gears. Ever-Power’s fused gears are designed so that the holding power of the fused surface is stronger compared to the tooth strength.
The positive characteristics of plastic gears include being lightweight, non-rusting, noiseless, injection molding enabling low cost and large production, and in a position to operate without lubrication by mating with metal gears. However, low strength, inclination to hold heat, large dimensional alter including backlash compared to metal, etc. are a number of the points requiring caution. The amount of dimensional adjustments that happen with plastic gears Plastic Gear Rack depend on the capability to resist temperature alter, moisture absorption price and resistance to chemicals.
As far as the applications of plastic material gears, they are found in varying industries such as food production machines, consumer electronics, chemical, toy, and medical products industries.
Our engineering department might help in customizing gears to your drawings and specifications.
