— Overview

The Challenge

Application needed a specific power output through a gear train fitting inside a tightly restricted housing envelope, leaving little room for compromise on gear geometry.

Engineering Approach

Power and torque requirements were worked into gear ratios, module size, and tooth counts stage by stage, with material and hardening selected for sustained load durability.

SCope

  • Gear ratio calculations
  • Module & tooth selection
  • Material & hardening spec
  • Lubrication concept design

Deliverables

  • Gear train assembly model
  • Gear calculation report
  • Material specification
  • Lubrication concept drawings

— Results

18.5:1 Ratio Delivered in a Tight Envelope

The final gear train delivered the required 18.5:1 output ratio across three stages while fitting entirely within the housing’s restricted envelope. Module and tooth geometry were sized for the specified torque load, and the splash lubrication concept removed the need for a separate oil pump.
