In what industry do the workers use bevel gear?

Workers use bevel gear in the industry of locomotives. The use of bevel gears is used in numerous industrial applications. You can manufacture bevel gears for multiple uses in many situations such as maintaining a power plant.


How to mill spiral bevel gears?

Traditionally, spiral bevel gear milling machines from Gleason Works are used for milling of spiral bevel gears. However, less expensive and more popular universal milling machines have been recently used for milling. Correct 3-d CAD model of the gear tooth is the key element for milling a spiral bevel gear on a CNC milling machine. The CAD model of the gear tooth is produced on special "SPIRAL BEVEL GEAR SOFTWARE".


What mechanism would be used to increase speed?

A bevel gear is used to increase speed.


What is a bevel gear?

A bevel gear can change the direction of the driven shaft/axle by 90 degrees. If different tooth counts are used, bevel gears can also change the ratio between speed/strength of the turning motion.


What is stronger a spiral bevel gear or a straight cut bevel gear?

If both gears designed and manufactured correctly, spiralbevel gear is stronger compare to a straight bevel gear. Spiral bevel gear is also quieter. For example, in mineral processing industry, spiral bevel gears are used in rock crashers because of the higher endurance. When the tooth is spiral (helical) it becomes possible to increase the size of the gear tooth without reduction of the contact ratio. The larger tooth is stronger compare to a smaller tooth. The reason why straight bevel gears are still used is because spiral bevel gears are more expensive in design and manufacturing, thanks to use of expensive spiralbevel gear cutting machines from Gleason Works or from Klingelnberg AG. In 1990, it became possible to manufacture spiral bevel gears on universal CNC milling machines, because of the development of special spiralbevel software for 3d CAD gear tooth modeling. Today, thanks to spiralbevel software, both straight and spiral bevel gears are manufactured on CNC milling machines at the same low cost.


Where would a bevel gear be used in?

First start the gear > Typically, turning a rotating drive line through 90 degrees (turning a corner).


What is a bevel used for in carpentry?

A bevel is used for measuring angles other than 90 degrees and for tesing constructed angles.


Can spur gears turn horizontal rotation to vertical rotation?

No, they would need to be bevel gears. Peg gear wheels would but they are generaly made from wood and used for agriculture etc.
