Powder Metallurgy Gears Manufacturing
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
Powder metal gears are found in aerospace, agricultural, automotive, building and construction, marine
transportation, material handling, medical, military, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, power generation
and robotics industries. The demand for application specific metal gears has led to the introduction of
several types or styles such as anti-backlash, bevel, miter, chance, cluster, differential, helical,
herringbone, hypoid, internal, planetary, spur and pinion gears. While these mechanisms can be produced
in a number of machining processes, powder metal parts provide several advantages over traditional gear
manufacturing methods.
To show your expertise in the field, you decided to prepare a full detailed report showing your capability
to handle the technical aspects of engineering and manufacturing of gear parts. As a show case you
decided to choose the manufacturing of “gear” similar to that shown below. The part is to be made using
PM of steel powder. It is pressed by high pressure then sintered in high temperature, after that, it soaked
in oil. If the targeted production volume per year is 1M gears, then prepare your technical report and
provide details for the following tasks in the provided file
