Spur gears are the most common type of gear used in industrial machinery, offering excellent efficiency and reliability for power transmission applications. Our precision-engineered spur gears are manufactured using advanced technology and high-grade materials to ensure superior performance and durability.

| SG-404 | Plastic | 1.5 | 20 | 75 | Medical Devices, Consumer Electronics |
Q: What are the advantages of using spur gears compared to other gear types?
A: Spur gears offer several advantages including high efficiency (up to 99%), simple design, ease of manufacture, consistent velocity ratio, and the ability to transmit large amounts of power. Unlike helical gears, they don't create axial thrust, making them ideal for applications requiring precise axial positioning.
Q: How do I select the right spur gear for my application?
A: Consider these key factors: 1) Required torque and power transmission, 2) Operating speed (RPM), 3) Environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, exposure to chemicals), 4) Noise requirements, and 5) Space constraints. Our engineering team can help you select the perfect spur gear based on your specific application requirements.
Our spur gears undergo rigorous manufacturing and quality control processes:
Spur gears find applications across multiple industries:
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your spur gears:
Q: How often should spur gears be replaced?
A: The replacement interval depends on operating conditions. Under normal conditions with proper maintenance, high-quality spur gears can last 5-10 years. Signs that replacement is needed include excessive tooth wear (>10% of tooth thickness), pitting, cracking, or unacceptable noise levels. Continuous monitoring through vibration analysis can help predict optimal replacement timing.
We offer custom spur gears manufacturing services with the following capabilities:

Q: Can spur gears be used for high-speed applications?
A: While spur gears can be used in high-speed applications (up to 10,000 RPM), they may generate more noise than helical gears at these speeds. For optimal high-speed performance, we recommend precision-ground spur gears with tighter tolerances (AGMA 10 or better), proper lubrication, and balanced shafts. In extremely high-speed applications (above 15,000 RPM), other gear types might be more suitable.
