Back-to-back gear tester (FZG)
Wear and damage testing of finished gears
Wear and damage testing of finished gears under controlled load, speed and lubrication conditions
Features:
- Testing gears for mechanical power up to 150kW
- Maximum speed up to 4000 rpm
- Maximum torque up to 1650 Nm
- Both short time and endurance testing are possible
- Range of condition monitoring measurements, e.g. vibrations, torque, speed, temperature
- Triaxial test gearbox to compensate axial reaction force due to helical gear
Application:
Spur or helical gear pairs that contain the following geometrical constraints:
- Large gear diameter: 80 – 200mm
- Small gear diameter: 80 – 105 mm
- Gear width: up to 40mm
- Wheelbase: 89 – 140 mm
Objective:
Research into the wear and damage characteristics of the tested gears under controlled load, speed and lubrication conditions.
