3.2.3 THE PROPER DRIVE BASED
ON AGMA (AMERICAN GEAR
MANUFACTURE ASSOCIATION).
GEAR DRIVE
 Gear drives deliver power
to equipment.
 Many variables must be
considered when sizing
and selecting a gear drive
based on AGMA, such as:
1. service factor
2. gear drive rating
3. thermal capacity
4. speed variation
5. drive ratio
3.2.4 IDENTIFY GEAR MESHING
AND BACKLASH.

 Gear meshing is a gear

gear.
 backlash is the striking
back of connected
wheels in a piece of
mechanism when
pressure is applied.
APPLY COUPLING CONCEPT
INTO GEAR SYSTEM. UNIVERSAL JOINTS
Gear couplings and universal joints are
used in similar applications.

Gear couplings have higher torque


densities than universal joints designed
to fit a given space while universal joints
induce lower vibrations.

The limit on torque density in


universal joints is due to the limited
cross sections of the cross and yoke.

The gear teeth in a gear coupling have


high backlash to allow for angular GEAR COUPLING
misalignment. The excess backlash can << video 1 – backlash dial gauge>>
contribute to vibration. <<video2 – backlash filler gauge>>
N-SERIES HIGH SPEED GEAR
INSPECTION TYPE AND TIME INTERVALS
High Speed Gearboxes plan maintenance intervals in line with the following
operational time periods:

1. Noise and Vibration Inspection


A comprehensive Noise & Vibration Inspection is performed at 8,000
hours of operation (one year) after commissioning.

2. Visual Inspection
A visual inspection is performed at 40,000 hours of operation (five years).
It is necessary to stop and isolate the gearbox, remove the guards,
acoustic covers, and inspection covers to allow access to the internal
components of the gear. A comprehensive Noise & Vibration Survey
should be conducted at least one month in advance of the scheduled
inspection.
3. Major Inspection
The complete gearbox will be dismantled and mechanically inspected for wear or
deterioration of the bearings, seals, and gear teeth at 80,000 hours of operation
(10 years). During this overhaul, any auxiliary drive rolling element bearings
should be replaced along with any pring/locking devices. A comprehensive Noise
and Vibration Inspection should be performed at least one month prior to and
one month after the Major Inspection.
Further examination periods should be established by reviewing the operating
conditions found during these initial health checks. If the gearbox is found in
poor condition, then the inspection interval should be reduced. If no issues were
identified, it may be acceptable to increase the inspection interval.

4. Future Inspections
It is recommended to continue the cycle of inspection as:
• The Visual Inspection is repeated each additional 40,000 hours (5 years) in
service.
• A Major Inspection is conducted each additional 80,000 hours (10 years) in
service.

 Belt drives are widely used in many industries for
power transmission since they are cheap and easy
to maintain. However they are often a source of
vibration due to misalignments, belt resonance, and
belt wear.
 The main purpose of belt drives is to transfer power
between machines such as motor and fan. They are
subject to rotary and push-pull motions with varying
dynamic characteristics. Belts are friction drives,
which mean they depend on friction between the
belt and pulley/sheave to transmit power.
 The most common types of belt drives include:

1. Round belts 2. V belts


Round belts are generally made of rubber. V belts are arguably the most widely
This type of belt is generally used for light used belts in industry. V belts have a V

tension. The V shaped cross-section
prevents belt from slipping off.
3. Flat belts
 Flat belts are also used to transmit power from one shaft to another.
They are generally classified as either small woven endless belts or
higher power flat belts. The woven endless belts are especially useful
where minimum vibration is required at the driven pulley due to semi-
elastic material used in construction. The higher power flat belts are
often useful because they eliminate the need to high belt tension used to
grip pulleys, which in turn reduces the load on the shaft bearings. The
material used for high power flat belts is sticky yet abrasion-resistant
rubber compounds.
4. Timing/toothed belts
 Timing belts are toothed belts that use their teeth for power
transmission, as opposed to friction. This configuration results in no
slippage, and therefore, the driving and driven shafts remain
synchronized. It’s more expensive to manufacture due to complexity of
the belt and pulley shapes.
1. Parallel misalignment refers to pulleys that are outside the plane
of other pulleys in the drive system but whose shafts remain parallel.
Proper positioning of a pulley on a shaft will help ensure all pulleys
are in a common plane.
2. Angular misalignment refers to pulleys which are within the same
drive system plane but are tilted because their shafts are not parallel.
A combination of both is also possible.

 Chain drive is a way of transmitting
mechanical power from one place to another.
Chain is a sequence of items of the same type
forming a line, circle or a closed and open
path.

increased pressure in the
joints. Over-tightening also
overloads the shaft and
support bearings.
Proper alignment of sprocket and shaft is necessary to
provide long wear life of the drive unit. Increased wear
results from misalignment, due to rubbing of chain parts
against the sides of the sprocket teeth and excessive
friction wear in the joints caused by whipping and
twisting of the chain.

To ensure correct alignment, the following


steps are recommended:

1. Check to determine if the sprocket is


positioned axially square on the shaft. Use
a dial indicator as shown
2. Level the shafts using a machinist level as
shown

3. Align the shafts parallel, using a tape


measure or a feeler bar as shown. Recheck the
level of the shafts and tighten down the
securing fasteners.

4. Align the sprockets axially on the shafts,


using a straight edge as shown. Locate the
straight edge on a finished surface on the
sprocket face. For long center distances, a
stretched wire or tight cord can be used.
Advantages of Chain Drives
1. Do not slip
2. Maintain constant and precise speed.
3. Good service life
4. Easy to install and repair
5. High transmission efficiency

Disadvantages of Chain Drives


1. Noisy
2. Need lubrication
3. Weight of the chain
4. Costly compare to belt
