A Comprehensive Guide to Bevel Gear Boxes
What is a Bevel Gear Box?
A bevel gear box, often referred to as a right-angle gear box, is a type of gear system that changes the direction of the drive by 90 degrees. This is achieved by using bevel gears, which are gears with conically shaped teeth that allow for torque transmission between intersecting shafts.

Types of Bevel Gears
Straight Bevel Gear
Straight bevel gears have straight and tapered teeth and are used in applications requiring slow speeds.
Spiral Bevel Gear
Spiral bevel gears have curved and oblique teeth. They operate more smoothly and quietly than straight bevel gears.

Zerol Bevel Gear
Zerol bevel gears are very similar to straight bevel gears, except the teeth are curved. The main advantage is they have no axial thrust.
Spiral Zerol Bevel Gear
Spiral zerol bevel gears combine the strengths of spiral and zerol bevel gears. They are designed for applications requiring high speed and high torque power transmission.
Choosing the Right Bevel Gears
When selecting a bevel gear, several parameters need to be considered. These include the module, number of teeth, gear ratio, pitch, gear material, precision grade, and load capacity.
Manufacturing Process of Bevel Gears
The production of bevel gears involves a series of steps, including design and engineering, material selection, cutting, machining and grinding, heat treatment, cleaning and inspection, assembly and machining of parts, surface treatment and coating, and final inspection and quality control.
Other Gear and Gearbox Products We Offer
Aside from bevel gears, we also manufacture other types of gears and gearboxes, such as worm gears, helical gears, spur gears, gear racks, worm gearboxes, planetary gearboxes, and helical gearboxes.
