Description
Screw gears, also sometimes called crossed helical gears, are helical gears used in motion transmission between non-intersecting shafts. The helical gears used in parallel beams have the same helix angle but opposite directions. For shaft angles other than the parallel, an arbitrary helix angle can be chosen. Assuming no profile shift, the intersecting angle of the shafts is the sum of the respective helix angles. Helical gears have point contacts and have lower efficiency than parallel or perpendicular shaft gears, and cannot transmit heavy loads.
Screw Gears: Technical Information
MINGHUA stock screw gears come in modules 1 ~ 4, 10 to 30 teeth, and four materials: S45C, SUS303, CAC702 (formerly A BC2), and MC nylon.
