Spiral bevel gears are usually made from hardened steel. One’s teeth of these gears are usually ground for a far more precise finish allowing for little noise at high speeds. You can specify left hands or right hand depending on the direction you have to run the gears

If you have a higher speed application that requires a whole lot of torque after that spiral bevel gears are a great choice. The gears run at 90° to one another and have “spiral” shaped teeth which gives maximum tooth surface contact while rotating. With get in touch with spread over the whole tooth the spiral bevel gear could be run much quicker than the straight tooth bevel equipment and handle harder starts and stops.

We make spiral bevel gears limited to industrial applications.

Worm gears are used in large equipment reductions. Gear ratio ranges of 5:1 to 300:1 are standard. The setup is designed to ensure that the worm can change the gear, but the equipment cannot change the worm. The position of the worm is certainly shallow and because of this the gear is held set up due to the friction between your two. The equipment is situated in applications such as for example conveyor systems in which the locking feature can act as a brake or an emergency stop.

The model cross-section shows an average placement and usage of a worm gear. Worm gears possess an inherent protection mechanism built-in to its design given that they cannot function in the invert direction.
