How Material Choices Affect Custom Gear Costs?
Choosing the right material for CNC machined gears can make or break your project budget and performance targets. After machining thousands of custom gears for aerospace, medical, and audio applications, we’ve seen engineers struggle with the same critical decision: balancing material costs against performance requirements while ensuring manufacturability. Material selection directly impacts both upfront machining […]
What Factors Should You Consider When Sizing Spur Gears?
Sizing spur gears correctly means balancing load capacity against cost and space constraints. Through years of machining precision gears for automation, robotics, and industrial equipment, we’ve learned that small sizing decisions have major impacts on both performance and manufacturing expense. Proper spur gear sizing requires evaluating transmitted torque, operating speed, center distance constraints, and material […]
