Crowned Gear Coupling Manufacturer & Supplier in Faridabad
Crowned gear coupling is mainly used
in mechanical systems to transfer rotary motion to linear motion. The torsion is
transferred from one rotating component attached to the gear to another. In
most cases it transferred from a motor or engine to the attached shaft or vice
versa. The pivotal advantage of crowned gear couplings is that they have
extremely higher load bearing that ensures enhanced durability performance,
than any other flexible couplings. Apart from that crowned gear coupling also
allows certain amount of angular misalignment and even relative sliding. These
are the reasons that crowned gear couplings are widely used in industries like aerospace,
marine, wind energy, and railways.
The two most important
components of a gear coupling are sleeve and hub. While hub is the external
gear with a longitudinal crowning, sleeve is the internal spur gear. These two
components together form a gear coupling. Despite the fact that they are of
different dimension number of teeth in the external and internal gear is
identical. It is unavoidable to rule out certain amount of misalignment when
these two axles are connected. The crowned gear couplings are manufactured in
such a way that they can perform even in high rotation speed overcoming the
angular misalignment.
The process for manufacturing
crowned gear coupling is called hobbing. This is a very popular method in the
gear manufacturing industry as the process is quick and less expensive. This
process allows mass production of gear couplings of various dimensions in large
scale. In this process hobbing machines are used for making gear couplings of
varied sizes. In hobbing machines, a hob is mounted with a spindle that skews
the blank work piece that is mounted over another spindle. For manufacturing
different types of gear couplings, the angle of skew is changed and other
specifications are changed for making different types of gear couplings.
Gear couplings work under
extremely high force and with misalignment. Furthermore, vibrations and
shakings caused due to the operations of machines further increases the
misalignments. With continuous use wear of the bearings and other components
also increase the misalignment of the gear shafts. Therefore, it is extremely
important to properly study the tooth contact analysis and to consider damage
of the tooth during use. This analysis is most import for determining the
material, design and specification of crowned gear couplings. Regular
inspection and maintenance will also extend the life of the crowned gear
couplings to a significant level.
