Development of Pairing Performance Tester for Vehicles Cylindrical Gears

So far, researches of the meshing performance of vehicles cylindrical gears are quite rare. Testers that can be used to test the gear pair’s performance for vehicles cylindrical gears do not exist. A tester that can be used to test vehicles cylindrical gears paring performance was developed, which fills the gaps of vehicles cylindrical gears meshing performance tester. The maximum diameter of gears measured is 500mm, the maximum spindle speed is 3000r/min and the maximum load torque is 200N.m. The tester can inspect and measure the following items simultaneously, such as the transmission errors, the vibration and noise, the contact pattern, the eccentricity errors and so on. There is gear error analysis function in this tester. In addition, it can meet the quality inspection requirements for the vehicles cylindrical gears with the accuracy of grade 5.Copyright © 2015 by ASME
