flexible and robust assembly kit for the fundamentals of mechanical gear engineering
| Code | GL410 |
Description:
- Gears are responsible for transferring the magnitude and/or direction of rotary motion and torque.
- In machine elements, gears are categorised as transmission or conversion elements.
- There are different types of gears depending on their task.
- Wheel gears such as gear drives, friction gears and traction gears are uniformly translating gears.
- The GL 410unit provides an introduction to 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, simple gear types.
- 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.
- Various bearings and a solid frame made of square steel tubes 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.
