Which industries are suitable for gears?
1. Automobile industry
In the automotive industry, mechanical gears are often used in transmission mechanisms. The gear transmission is composed of several shafts and several mechanical gears fixed on the axis and a housing, which can achieve the functions of speed change, direction change and torque change. For example, the shift of a car is to change the gear through the change of the mechanical gear transmission ratio. When the power cannot be transmitted to the output shaft, it is what we call neutral.
2. Heavy industry
Heavy industry includes machinery, energy, petrochemical, metallurgy, steel, materials and other industries. In the field of heavy industry, various mechanical gears, large and small, can be used in various occasions to meet different working requirements. Especially suitable for CNC machine tools, machining centers, cutting machines, welding machines with heavy load, high precision, high rigidity, high speed and long stroke. For example, in the machine tool, the movement of the main shaft is transmitted to the shaft through the mechanical gear pair. By changing the transmission of the mechanical gear, the rotation speed of the main shaft can be changed.
3. Railway industry
When it comes to the application of mechanical gears in the field of railway and aviation, we have to mention a concept "gear box", which is the general name of a transmission mechanism. Generally, torque is obtained by reducing the speed of power, or vice versa. For example, it is used in the wheel drive part of railway vehicles and the turbine generator used for wind power and thermal power generation.
