Gear Errors

It depends on how poorly the gear was made.

Dear Anonymous Poster,

From DESIGN CONSIDERATION and STANDARDS point, Less Z_NT Factor, (Life Cycle - STANDARD specifies and calls for 1x10^10, i.e 10E+10, but some Manufacturers adopt 5x10^7, i.e 5E+07 only), LESS APPLICATION FACTOR, LESS ROOT STRESS, LESS PITCH FACTOR, WRONG SELECTION OF MATERIAL etc., are some of the Errors.

From gear cutting/machining point, WRONG SELECTION OF CUTTER, IMPROPER PROFILE, HIGH or LOW BACK LASH, HIGH or LOW ROOT CLEARANCE, VARIATION in M.O.T VALUE, IMPROPER HEAT TREATMENT, Etc. are the Errors.

THANKS,
