Gears may be one of the earliest materials used by humans. They are present in almost all modern machinery. To withstand harsh operating environments, gears must be well-built, reliable, efficient and durable. Gears must reduce stress and strain to avoid failure, which can lead to conditions. To meet all these demands, gear manufacturing has developed into a highly specialized industry.

After the gears are manufactured, they may still need to be finished to improve surface finish and dimensional accuracy. Gears can be done in several different ways, such as grinding or lapping.

The size of the gear is mainly determined by the precision gear module.

Advanced carbide insert technology meets the growing demand for larger gears.

In addition to conventional processing, there are many forming processing methods for gears, let's take a look!

The choice of the specific type of material used to manufacture the gear is ultimately a balance between required strength, durability and cost. This article reviews different metallic and non-metallic gear materials, gear applications, and power transmission calculations.

Usually you may hear different methods by machining bevel gears ,which includes straight bevel gears ,spiral bevel gears ,crown gears or hypoid gears .That is Milling ,Lapping and Grinding .Milling is the basic way to do the bevel gears .Then after milling ,some customers choose lapping ,some customers choose grinding .What’s the difference ?
