Gear Geometry provides an overview of the important design features of common gears. Involute gears have teeth that are shaped by an involute curve. In order to work properly, involute gears must meet ...

Gears make the industrial world go ’round. And RIT engineering faculty and doctoral students are working to keep them moving efficiently. Gears transmit the motion necessary to operate the equipment ...

Invention of the gear-hobbing process about 150 years ago revolutionized not only gear fabrication, but also gear design. Basically, a hob or shaper cutter traverses the gear blank to generate teeth.

Face gear technology addresses a specialised subset of gear design where the geometric complexity of the tooth surfaces significantly influences both performance and manufacturability. Recent advances ...

Local precision engineering company Venter Consulting Engineers has completed two complex-geometry globoid gear sets for Italian metal industry equipment manufacturer Danieli, says Venter Consulting ...

Gear reducers are pivotal in modern mechanical systems where precise motion control, energy efficiency and high torque transmission are imperative. The dynamic performance of these devices governs ...
