What is the ideal meshing clearance for reduction gear in mm?
1 Answers
The meshing clearance between the driving and driven bevel gears is generally 0.10-0.35mm for new gears, 0.70mm is allowed during major overhaul, and the service limit is 1.00mm. If it exceeds the standard, appropriate adjustments can be made while ensuring normal meshing. Below are some introductions about driving and driven bevel gears: 1. Non-adjustable: The contact surface and backlash of driving and driven cylindrical gears cannot be adjusted. During assembly, their meshing positions must be symmetrical to align the two cylindrical gears. 2. Meshing clearance inspection: After correctly adjusting bearing clearance and gear meshing position, if the backlash exceeds 0.8mm (service limit is 1.00mm), the gears should be replaced.
