Custom CNC Machined Precision Metal Gear: Technical Guide

Custom CNC Machined Precision Metal Gear: Technical Guide

A custom CNC machined spur gear delivers tight tolerances and repeatability for power transmission in automotive, robotics, and industrial equipment. Machined from stainless steel, it combines fine-pitch teeth, a precision center bore, and lightening holes for a strong, lightweight design.

Key Features

• Tooth profile: hobbed or wire-EDM cut for low backlash
• Center bore: ground to ±0.01mm tolerance
• Lightening holes: reduce mass, retain torque
• Finish: brushed stainless resists corrosion

Why CNC Machining?

CNC gears outperform cast or stamped parts in accuracy, hardness, and load capacity—critical for high-RPM assemblies.

FAQ

Q: What tolerance can CNC gears achieve? A: Typically ±0.005–0.01mm on bore and critical diameters.

Q: Common materials for custom gears? A: Stainless steel, carbon steel, and aluminum.

Q: Sample lead time? A: Usually 7–10 days for prototypes.

Q: Can designs be fully customized? A: Yes—tooth count, module, bore, and holes are all customizable.
