Articles About plastics
1 Plastic Gear Design Basics (July/August 1996)
Plastic gears are serious alternatives to traditional metal gears in a wide variety of applications. The use of plastic gears has expanded from low-power, precision motion transmission into more demanding power transmission applications. As designers push the limits of acceptable plastic gear applications, more is learned about the behavior of plastics in gearing and how to take advantage of their unique characteristics.
2 New Technology for Stronger Plastic Gears (August 2012)
Gleason-K2 Plastics eliminates weld lines with no machining.
3 Latest Generation of Quieter Plastic Gears Can Take the Heat (November/December 2005)
Ten years ago, most mainstream gear manufacturers didn't even consider plastics as an option, especially in higher power applications.
4 Load Carrying Capacity of Screw Helical Gears with Steel Pinions and Plastic Wheels (July/August 2004)
There is an increasing significance of screw helical and worm gears that combine use of steel and plastics. This is shown by diverse and continuously rising use in the automotive and household appliance industries. The increasing requirements for such gears can be explained by the advantageous qualities of such a material combination in comparison with that of the traditional steel/bronze pairing.
5 Plastic Gears--A Growing Industry Still Seeking Respect (March/April 2007)
Forty years ago, the plastics industry was practically in its embryonic phase...
6 Failure Mechanisms in Plastic Gears (January/February 2002)
Plastics as gear materials represent an interesting development for gearing because they offer high strength-to-weight ratios, ease of manufacture and excellent tribological properties (Refs. 1-7). In particular, there is a sound prospect that plastic gears can be applied for power transmission of up to 10 kW (Ref. 6).
