Exploring Our Seamless Torque Transmission Solutions

Mechanical operations cannot take place without effective torque transmission solutions, period. Nothing is better than gears and splined shafts for facilitating effective torque transmission between mechanical components. True Gear & Spline Ltd. in Cambridge, Ontario, custom manufactures top-notch gears, splined shafts, and gear and sleeve couplings using sophisticated techniques. Our extensive selection of gears, splined shafts, and other components are highly sought after by businesses across industries. In this blog, we draw your attention to our extensive selection of torque transmission solutions. From spur gear to gear couplings, no matter what you are looking for, we have got you covered.
True Gear & Spline Ltd. Is a One-Stop Destination For Torque Transmission Solutions
Below are the different types of gears we custom-produce at True Gear & Spline Ltd. Each gear is made with a lot of attention to detail. The uniqueness of each gear type makes them ideal for specific applications. Here are the most sought-after gears by clients in different industries.
Spur Gear: This is the most basic yet effective gear manufactured by us. Its rather simple design makes manufacturing it relatively easy. Thanks to our customization abilities, we can manufacture spur gears with precise tolerance for your specific applications. Spur gears are found in everything from clocks and conveyors to home appliances and automobiles. The versatility and torque transmission ability of spur gears are among the best.
Helical Gear: The unique angle of helical gear separates it from the rest. It is a cylindrical gear with helicoid teeth, meaning the teeth are cut at an angle from the axis of rotation. Helical gear has a lot of similarities with spur gears. However, it is rated better than spur gears when it comes to working in high-stress situations. The smoothness of operation and torque capacity of helical gears surpass that of spur gears. Helical gears are used in automotive transmission machinery, equipment, wind turbines, and aircraft.
Bevel Gear: Bevel gears are identifiable due to their unique conical shape. They are often mounted on shafts that are 90 degrees apart from each other. True Gear & Spline Ltd. offers top-notch bevel gear-cutting services to clients in Toronto and the GTA. We use Gleason Coniflex gear generators to offer flawless bevel gear cutting. Our facility in Cambridge, Ontario, is equipped with Gleason 2A and Gleason 24A. While the former is used to cut gears up to .25" diameter, the latter is used to cut gears up to .35" diameter. Bevel gears are found in marine transmissions, industrial equipment, heavy machinery, automobiles, and helicopters.
Worm Gear: This gear features a spiral thread on a shaft that most commonly engages with a toothed wheel. One of the most unique aspects of a worm is its ability to change rotational movement by 90 degrees. It is also relatively easy to adjust the torque and speed of worm gears, giving you excellent control over torque transmission. True Gear & Spline Ltd. manufactures the best worm gears to meet your custom requirements.
Herringbone Gear: This is a type of double helical gear with many applications. Its teeth are arranged in a unique “V” shape. This gear gets its name due to the resemblance of the teeth to a herring fish’s bone structure. It is among the most difficult gears to manufacture and often comes with a hefty price tag. Thanks to CNC machining and precision engineering, True Gear & Spline Ltd. manufactures the best herringbone gears. Our gears are perfect for seamless torque transmission.
Splined Shafts From True Gear & Spline Ltd.
Just like gears, splined shafts are also trusted to facilitate effective torque transmission between mechanical components. Splined shafts are cylindrical rods with teeth or grooves cut along their length. The larger surface area ensures uniform load distribution and ensures seamless torque transmission.
We at True Gear & Spline Ltd. use the toughest material to ensure durability and consistency. The unique design of spline shafts makes them ideal for linear and rotary applications. What’s more? Spline shafts also provide excellent alignment between components, reducing premature wear and tear. They are perfect for applications demanding minimal noise and vibrations, like in automobiles and airplanes.
Gear And Sleeve Couplings
There is always a scope for misalignment between two connecting shafts. The constant movement and vibration might cause misalignment, causing premature wear and tear. Gear and sleeve couplings are mechanical components designed to minimize misalignment and ensure seamless torque transmission. True Gear & Spline Ltd. is dedicated to manufacturing the best couplings at our facility in Cambridge, Ontario.
Conclusion
All our products, like gears, splined shafts, and gear couplings, facilitate excellent torque transmission between mechanical components. When it comes to torque transmission solutions in Ontario, we are second to none. We also offer CNC machining, gear grinding, and gear hobbing services.
