Gears

Worm Drive Worm drives (or worm gear sets) are right angled drives and are used in screw jacks where the input shaft is at right angles to the lifting screw. Other forms of right angle drives are bevel gears, and hypoid gears. Worm drives satisfy the requirements of many systems and provide a...

This 27:1 ratio worm gear set provides a compact way to create a drastic reduction in the output speed of a gear motor. The 1/4" D-bore of the stainless worm will allow it to mount on a 1/4" D-shaft which is used throughout the Raydafon build system. The mating worm gear mounts on a...

A gear is a rotating machine part that utilizes cut teeth, or cogs, to mesh with another toothed part—usually another gear or a linear toothed part (called a gear rack)—to transmit rotational motion and torque. By using a combination of precision gears with the correct ratio, the speed, torque,...

Raydafon manufactures worm gear sets, which are comprised of a worm and worm wheel, for use in a variety of industries including aerospace and military instrumentation, medical, dental, oil and gas exploration, robotics, optical and industrial controls. Our precision worm gear sets can be...

Bevel gears are used extensively in a wide variety of industries and mechanical operations due to the most important advantage they offer: smooth and low-noise power transmission between non-parallel shafts at almost any angle or speed. However, due to the mathematical complexity of their...

Straight Bevel Gears Straight bevel gears are the most common and also the simplest type of bevel gear. True to their name, they have straight teeth and resemble a spur gear, except that they are conical rather than cylindrical. They also share many properties of spur gears due to the similar...
