Design and analysis of thin wall gear structure with Tio2/GF reinforced Nylon66 composites

In machineries, to increase or decrease the speed, gear is very much needed. Such machineries are now days are compact design with less weight. Gears must occupy minimum spaces and materials reduction is required. For that, one of the best options is rimmed gears. The aim of the paper is to design and analysis of different thin-rimmed gear for high strength with high speed of rotations under harsh condition. The composite materials are in trend in recent years. High heat resistance and low wear characterized composite materials such as Nylon66 with TiO2, with and without glass; fibres are implemented in thinned rimmed gears. With TiO2, volume of percentage varies from 0% to 6%, which are used in analysing the individual gear models. The effect of web thickness, web positions, rim thickness, module, hub thickness and face width parameters are analysed to find out the strength that depends on the type of materials and gears, which are analysed in this paper.
