PLASTIC GEARS By Rudy Walter
ince founding Timco in 1967, Ive been riding a mating surfaces of high quality), absorbs less moisture
Power Transmission:
Key and keyway connections are used for plastic gears, too.
The load bearing side of the keyway must be dimensioned so
that the permissible contact pressure of the plastic is not exceed-
ed. This maximum contact pressure is:
Md 103
PF = [MPa]
i rm h b
Ma = torque in Nm
i = number of keys
rm = radius from the shaft center to the center of the key
way in the plastic, in mm
h = height of the key in the plastic gear which engages the
plastic in mm
b = length of key in the plastic gear which engages the
plastic in mm
U = ambient temperatures in C
P = power in kW
= coefficient of friction
z = teeth
i = transmission ratio z1/z2 with z1 = number of
teeth in pinion
b = width of the tooth face in mm
v = circumferential speed in m/sec
m = module in mm Diagram 3
A = surface of the gear box in mm2
k2 = material-related factor
k3 = gear-related factor in m2K/W

The values for k2 and k3 and, F and zul and the coefficient of friction can be
taken from the preceding paragraph (Continuous Operation).

FU = circumferential force in N
b = tooth width in mm (use smaller width + m for the wider gear when
widths of pinion and gear are different.)
m = modul in mm
KB = operating factor for variations in drive operation
YF = tooth shape factor from Diagram 3
Y = helix factor to allow for the increased load capacity of helical

There are many things to consider when placing an order with a gear
manufacturer, such as trust, confidence and level of integrity. Spending
money correctly is also a primary concern, but so is getting a reliable
product, on-time that fits YOUR particular gear needs.
Being late due to lost time on the production line or receiving a poor quality
product will NEVER happen with Carnes-Miller Gear, guaranteed! For over
30 years, we have maintained a strict quality control process. We make it
easy for our customers to buy from us.We want each of our new or existing
customers to have a positive, risk and worry-free experience.
Give us the chance to earn your business by letting us quote on your next
order. At Carnes-Miller Gear, we assure you that we will handle your
account and your projects, with professionalism and accuracy.

tanA2 tooth. It leads to a change in the tooth profile and, conse-
quently, to uneven motion transmission.
The tooth face pressure must be checked to determine
The value tanA2 is dependent on the correction value whether it is still within the permissible face pressure H. This
will preclude premature failure due to pitting and/or wear.
