Helical gearboxes are special
type of gearboxes finding numerous industrial applications. These
gearboxes have teeth that spiral around the gear. These gearboxes are
similar to spur gears but have a greater time of contact and are quieter
in operation.
The gearboxes can be customized to different design specifications and
are available in different ratios. These gearboxes are noise free and
have a modified output shaft, both inside and outside. The gearbox can
be mounted on an output flange.
The ratio of a helical gearbox can be determined by simply dividing the
number of teeth in the larger gear by the number of teeth in the smaller
gear.
These gearboxes are used in higher horsepower applications and
industries where the long-term efficiency is more important than the
initial set up cost.
