ASI Drives has a broad and deep knowledge of gear technologies. We can help solve an existing problem or design a system from the ground up. We have decades of experience, with a wide variety of gear drive system applications. We utilize three specialized gear systems, combined with conventional gearing expertise, for a complete selection of the best gear arrangement to use. We have well-developed global sources of supply which result in high-quality components at the lowest possible cost.
Gear Engineering Solutions
Gear Design Technologies
Evoloid® Gearing:
- Provides excellent efficiency and high power density
- 3, 4, 5 tooth parallel axis helical pinions, no undercut, no pointed teeth
- Single pass ratios from 7:1 to 22:1
- Computerized stress analysis
- Mesh efficiencies generally 95+%
Convoloid® Gearing:
- New, patented, non-involute tooth form
- Significant improvements in surface durability compared to involute forms
- Increase rated power of existing gear system in same housing, or reduce size of present gear drive system for same performance of involute system
- Manufacturing processes and sequencing is generally the same as those for involute gearing
Angled Axis (AA) Gearing:
- A performance enhancing and more cost-effective approach to applications that typically require spiral bevel technology
- Axis angles from 0° to 135°
- Mesh efficiencies of +95%
- Patented design permits cutting or grinding of face gear on traditional machinery
- Combined with Evoloid® pinions, high single pass ratios are achievable, i.e., 7:1 to 22:1
Conventional Gearing:
- We use computerized stress analysis standards of the American Gear Manufacturers Association
- We can analyze bearings, shafts, and other interfacing components
- We can match ratios, center distances and other special requirements
