The double helical gear is primarily designed to reduce rotational speed in industrial machinery, particularly in high-speed gearboxes. This component, also known as a “herringbone gear”, features dual helical teeth, which enhance torque reduction and eliminate axial forces, effectively performing the function of two helical gears combined. Additionally, it is capable of transmitting high power, making it suitable for various industries, including sugar and ethanol, pulp and paper, mining, steel, and railway sectors.
The double helical gear is designed with interlocking transverse teeth, which, when engaged with a double helical pinion, reduce rotational speed while increasing torque, eliminating axial forces through precise meshing. This process occurs gradually, ensuring smooth torque transmission and speed reduction with minimal noise.
Beyond its operational efficiency, one of the main advantages of the double helical gear is its high resistance, surpassing other types of rotational components. As a result, it is widely used in heavy-duty and high-performance machinery.
Additional benefits of the double helical gear include:
