Vijay Kumar Karma, Akshay Panchity

Abstract :

In this paper various experiments were conducted on gear chips of different sizes by dragging them into spur gear mesh at different speeds. For performing these experiments a experimental setup was faicated using a casing of Maruti 800 gear box. To account for the amount of deformation occurred on the surface of gear chip as well as on the gear tooth surface images of the gear chips before and after the engagement were taken with help of a Laser Scanning Microscope. It was focused that whether the gear chips oke up onto pieces or got deformed.
