Common Materials and Characteristics
PP (Polypropylene): Acid and alkali resistant, lightweight, and cost-effective, suitable for generally corrosive environments.
PE (Polyethylene): Impact, low-temperature, and chemical resistance, suitable for medium and low-speed transmission.
UPE (Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene): Extremely wear-resistant, with a low coefficient of friction and chemical resistance, making it ideal for long-term continuous conveying operations.
PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride): Strong acid and alkali resistance, excellent high-temperature performance, and dimensional stability make it suitable for harsh chemical environments and high-precision transmission.
Common Tooth Types
Spur gears, bevel gears, spiral gears, spike gears, and combination gears. The specific selection depends on the equipment design and transmission requirements.
General Parameters
Module (M): such as M1, M1.5, M2, etc.
Number of Teeth (Z): such as 20 teeth, 30 teeth
Aperture (d): such as 8mm, 10mm, 12mm
Function
Gears in PCB equipment primarily transmit power from motors or other transmission components to conveyor shafts, enabling synchronized rotation of conveyor rollers or chains. They are typically mounted in pairs on the conveyor shaft to ensure stable and precise conveying of PCBs during production.
Applications
These gears are widely used in PCB production equipment such as etching machines, developers, washers, and dryers, and are particularly suitable for workstations requiring chemical resistance and high transmission accuracy.
Key Advantages
Gears offer high meshing precision, minimal transmission error, and are lightweight. They can operate stably and long-term in chemical environments containing etching solutions and developer solutions, helping to reduce equipment operating loads.
Maintenance Recommendations
Regularly inspect tooth wear and meshing clearance, and replace gears promptly if any abnormalities are found. Maintain shaft alignment during installation to prevent uneven wear. Keep foreign matter out of the meshing area to extend gear life.
