flexible and robust assembly kit for continuing mechanical gear engineering
| Code | GL420 |
Description:
- Different types of gear can be combined to achieve significantly altered transmission functions and new properties.
- The combination or interconnection can be done in series or in parallel. For example, several gear stages are often connected in series in order to achieve larger transmission ratios.
- The GL 420unit offers extensive exercises on the fundamentals of gear engineering.
- The unit focuses in particular on the practical assembly of gear components.
- The exercise system can be used to configure six different gear types in various combinations.
- The setup of the components is flexible so that you can configure your own ideas and try out different gears.
- Individual activities such as understanding the task and reading the drawing, assembling the components, adjusting, calibrating and checking the gear, and performing calculations are performed one after the other.
- The unit is driven by a hand crank. A solid frame made of square steel tubes and various bearings ensures sufficient accuracy to be able to set precise tooth interlocking.
- All components of the exercise system are ready at hand and securely housed in a storage system.
- GUNToffers three assembly kits in this product range: from simple gears (GL 410) to combined gears (GL 420) and control gears (GL 430).
- Each assembly kit can be used completely independently of the other parts in the range.
