Spur Gear
• A gear with a cylindrical pitch surface is called a spur
gear.
• Spur gears are the most used gears that can be achieved
with high precision with relatively simple production
processes.
Application of Spur Gear:-
• Metal Cutting Machine
• Power Plant
• Marine Engines
• Mechanical Clock and Watches
• Fuel Pumps
• Washing Machine
• Gear Motors and Gear Pumps
• Rolling Mill
Spur Gear
• Rack and Pinion mechanism
Bevel Gear
• The bevel gears have a conical shape and are used to transmit
forces between two intersecting axes at a point (intersection
axis).
• The bevel gear has a cone on its step surface and its saw teeth
are cut along the cone.
