Conical Gear Spiral Gearing for Gearbox Bevel Applications
Conical gear spiral gearing, often referred to as spiral bevel gears, is a highly efficient and durable solution used in gearboxes for transmitting torque between intersecting shafts, typically at 90 degrees. These gears are characterized by their conical-shaped tooth design and spiral teeth orientation, which provide smooth, gradual engagement.
The spiral arrangement allows for a larger contact area compared to straight bevel gears, resulting in reduced noise, minimal vibration, and improved load distribution. This makes spiral bevel gears ideal for applications requiring high torque, precision, and reliability. Common industries utilizing these gears include automotive, aerospace, and heavy machinery, where quiet and efficient power transmission is critical.
