FAQs:
What are the main advantages of double helical gears over single helical or spur gears?
Double helical gears offer self-balancing axial forces, higher load capacity with 40%-60% larger contact area than spur gears, superior smoothness with lower noise (10-15dB reduction), and excellent structural rigidity for heavy-duty applications.
In which industrial applications are double helical gears typically used?
They are ideal for heavy-duty equipment requiring high torque transmission and smooth operation, including large rolling mills, mining crushers, marine main engine gearboxes, large generator sets, heavy construction machinery, and cement rotary kilns.
What manufacturing processes and quality standards are used for these gears?
Our double helical gears are manufactured using gear milling and hobbing processes with teeth grinding, heat treated through carburizing/cement quenching, and achieve high accuracy grades of ISO 6 or AGMA 11 for reliable performance.
