Gear and Gearboxes

A Gear is a rotating machine part with cut teeth, or cogs, which mesh with another toothed part to transmit torque. Two or more gears working in tandem are called a transmission and can produce a mechanical advantage through a gear ratio and thus may be considered a simple machine.

Geared devices can change a power source’s speed, magnitude, and direction. The most common situation is for a gear to mesh with another gear, however a gear can also mesh a non-rotating toothed part, thereby producing translation instead of rotation. The gears in a transmission are analogous to the wheels in a pulley. An advantage of gears is that the teeth of a gear prevent slipping. When two gears of unequal number of teeth are combined a mechanical advantage is produced, with both the rotational speeds and the torques of the two gears differing in a simple relationship.

A Transmission or Gearbox provides speed and torque conversions from a rotating power source to another device using gear ratios, including for a motor vehicle partly because of the limitations of internal combustion engines. Torque converters, hydraulics, electrical power and hybrid configurations may also be used for the same purpose.

We manufacture all kinds of Gears, gearboxes, and Windmill gearboxes as per customer specifications (standard / non-standard items), and also we undertake Gearbox services also.
