 Gear elements checking
Various deviations from the true form of circular
gears limit their ability to transmit uniform angular
velocity at their designed speed and power. These
deviations or errors are introduced during the
production of the gear elements. The ability to
measure these variations enables their magnitude to
be determined and controlled during manufacture.
 The various possible errors
occurring in circular gearing are:
.Tooth Thickness
.Run-out Errors
.Pitch Errors
.Tooth Form Errors
-profile
-alignment
-surface finish.
