Spur gears are the most basic type of parallel-axis gear. Mating spur gears are mounted on shafts with parallel axes. They are used to change the speed of rotation from one shaft to another and/or change the direction of rotation (clockwise to counter-clockwise, or vice-versa). Spur gears are manufactured most often by gear hobbing or gear shaping, although numerous other processes can be used (notably injection moulding for plastic gears and powder metal pressing and sintering). Finishes available to our clients are as cut or for greater precision shaved or for high precision gears we can offer gear tooth profile grinding.
