A gear is a rotating machine component that utilizes cut tooth, or cogs, to mesh with another toothed part-usually another gear or a linear toothed part (called a equipment rack)-to transmit rotational movement and torque. By utilizing a mixture of precision gears
with the correct ratio, the rate, torque, and even path of a power source can be changed. Several gears working together, called a gear teach or a transmitting, will almost always precision worm gear create a transformation in torque. If one equipment is bigger than the other, a mechanical advantage is created; the rotational velocity and torque of the respective gears differs compared to their diameters.
HZPT is a leading producer of precision gears for all applications. We provide precision gears in standard and custom inch-measure sizes and a variety of configurations, including spur gears, anti-backlash gears, worm gears, helical gears, bevel gears, miter gears, pinion gears, and more.
We also provide a full line of precision gears in metric sizes.
