Applicability of Composite Polymer Gear in Low RPM Applications – A Review

Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 4

Abstract

Composite polymer gears are being used in many engineering applications because of their low weight, low cost, self-lubrication capability and mass manufacturing possibility. With the continuous evolvement of science and technology the use of polymer gears is increasing in all the upcoming industries. Because of this advancement, this polymer gear’s failure can cause the catastrophic collapse for the machine. That is why the gear stress analysis, the transmission errors, the prediction of gear dynamic loads, gear noise and the optimal design for gear sets are always major concerns in gear design. This paper reviews how composite polymer gears perform under various load applications. Different reinforcements with composite polymer improved fiber interface bonding and increased strength of the composites. The negative impacts of fiber’s physical treatments on tensile and impact properties of polymer gears were also reviewed.
