The application of plastic gears has become more and more extensive. Compared with metal gears, it has many advantages, especially in cost, design, processing, and performance.
Plastic gears generally do not require secondary processing, so compared to stamping parts and machined metal gears, the cost is guaranteed to be reduced by 50% to 90%. Plastic gears are lighter and more inert than metal gears and can be used in environments where metal gears are prone to corrosion and degradation, such as the control of water meters and chemical equipment. Plastic gears can deflect and deform to absorb the impact load, which can better distribute the local load changes caused by shaft deflection and wrong teeth. The inherent lubricating characteristics of many plastics make them ideal gear materials for printers, toys, and other low-load operating mechanisms. Lubricants are not included here. In addition to running in a dry environment, gears can also be lubricated with grease or oil. The benefits of plastic gears are so many, which is why plastic gears are more and more widely used.
