Spur Gear

What are Spur Gears & How Do They Work?

Spur gears are cylindrical gears, specifically cylindrical-gears-ahmedabad sourced options, with teeth cut straight across the face of the gear blank and parallel to the axis of rotation. They are designed to transmit power and motion between two parallel shafts. When two spur gears mesh, their teeth engage sequentially, transferring rotational motion from the driving gear to the driven gear.

Key Characteristics & Advantages:

• Parallel Shaft Operation: Exclusively used for transmitting power between parallel shafts.
• Simple Design: Relatively easy to design and manufacture compared to more complex gear types.
• High Efficiency: Offer very high transmission efficiency (typically 98-99% per stage) due to rolling contact between teeth.
• Cost-Effective: Generally the most economical gear type to produce.
• No Axial Thrust: Unlike helical gears, spur gears do not produce axial thrust forces along the shafts during operation.
• Constant Speed Ratio: Maintain a constant velocity ratio between the driving and driven shafts.

Common Applications:

Spur gears are widely used in a vast range of applications, including general industrial-gears, gearboxes, machine tools, pumps, conveyors, material handling equipment, printing presses, and simple mechanical devices.
