A gear is a rotating machine component that utilizes cut teeth, or cogs, to mesh with another precision worm gear toothed part-usually another gear or a linear toothed part (called a equipment rack)-to transmit rotational movement and torque. By using a combination of precision gears with the right ratio, the swiftness, torque, and even path of a power supply can be changed. Two or more gears working collectively, called a gear teach or a transmitting, will more often than not create a switch in torque. If one gear is bigger than the various other, a mechanical advantage is created; the rotational quickness and torque of the respective gears differs compared to their diameters.
HZPT is a respected producer of precision gears for all applications. We offer precision gears in regular and custom made inch-measure sizes and a variety of configurations, including spur gears, anti-backlash gears, worm gears, helical gears, bevel gears, miter gears, pinion gears, and more.
We also offer a full line of precision gears in metric sizes.
