Depending on the parameters prevailing in your application, we will advise you free of charge and without obligation regarding the right material and the production and tool technology to mould individual gears reliably.

How does a bevel gear work?

Bevel gears are used to transmit forces or torques.
A bevel gear consists of at least two bevel gears whose axes are at a certain angle to each other.
The bevel gears can have the same or different sizes. This depends on the number of teeth, the module and the resulting transmission ratio.

At igus®, we offer bevel gears with different transmission ratios, which can be mounted at an axis angle of
can be mounted at an angle of 90 degrees.
In combination, bevel gears can run both clockwise and anti-clockwise.

How do I choose the right bevel gear combination?

When selecting, it is important to ensure that the bevel gears have the same module and match each other in the desired transmission ratio.
The bevel gears differ in terms of the number of teeth, module and transmission ratio.

At igus® you can obtain 7 different modules:
1, 1,5, 2, 2,5 3,3,5
and 6 different transmission ratios:
1:1, 1:1,5, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, 1:5

Reworking of our bevel gears is possible. (e.g. keyway, thread or a larger bore diameter)

Angular gearbox

with lightweight housing

Our angular gearboxes can be mounted directly, are characterised by their lightweight housing, are rust-free and do not require any additional lubricants.
The angular gearboxes are available in the materials iguform S270 and igutek P360.

Bevel gears in practice

bevel gear in format adjustment
The flexibility of the systems used in production is becoming increasingly important due to the constantly increasing variety of products and different batch sizes. This aspect plays a particularly important role in the packaging industry. With their high wear resistance, the maintenance-free bevel gears ensure reliable production and maximum efficiency, and there is no need for additional lubricants. If aggressive cleaning agents are used in production or FDA conformity is required, for example, we have the right solution for you, either as a catalogue part or as a customised special solution.
