Conical gears used to transmit power between intersecting (typically 90°) shafts — straight-bevel form is easy to manufacture and widely used.
PRODUCT INFO
Bevel Gear
Bevel gears are conical gears designed to transmit motion and power between intersecting shafts — most commonly at a 90° angle. Straight bevel gears are the simplest form, with teeth cut along the cone surface.
Bevel Gear advantages and important considerations
Advantages
Transmits power between intersecting shafts.
Ideal for 90° system direction changes.
Easier to manufacture in straight bevel form.
Important Considerations
High shock occurs in straight bevel gears.
Noise and stress increase at high speeds.
These factors may reduce durability and service life.
AREAS OF USE
Bevel Gear in which sectors is it used?
Bevel gears are used in printing machines, power plants, automotive differentials, hand drills, tractors, textile and agricultural equipment, cranes, gear boxes and many other applications where shaft direction must change.
