2. TNTRODUCTION Gears are fundamental mechanical components used to transmit power and motion between machine parts. The edges or teeth of gears play a crucial role in this process. These teeth are carefully designed to ensure smooth engagement with other gears, minimizing slippage and maximizing efficiency. The shape, size, and profile of the gear edges are meticulously engineered to achieve precise motion transfer, load distribution, and longevity of the gear system.

3. Key aspects of gear edges include Tooth Profile: The shape of the gear teeth edges is typically involute, which ensures constant velocity ratio and smooth operation. The involute curve allows gears to transmit motion at a constant speed and with minimal slippage. Pressure Angle: This is the angle at which the force is transmitted between meshing gears. Common pressure angles are 20° and 14.5°, influencing the strength and smoothness of operation. Backlash: This refers to the slight gap between gear teeth when they mesh. Properly designed edges allow for minimal backlash, reducing noise and wear.

4. Importance of Gear Edges Torque Transmission : The primary function of gear edges is to transmit torque between gears, enabling the conversion of rotational speed and direction. Mechanical Efficiency : Well-designed gear teeth ensure minimal energy loss during operation, contributing to the overall efficiency of the mechanical system. Durability and Wear Resistance : The design and material of gear teeth must withstand the forces encountered during operation to avoid wear and ensure longevity.

5. PRODUCTS Gear : A gear is  a kind of machine element in which teeth are cut around cylindrical or cone shaped surfaces with equal spacing . By meshing a pair of these elements, they are used to transmit rotations and forces from the driving shaft to the driven shaft. Rack and Pinion : A rack and pinion is  a type of linear actuator that comprises a circular gear (the pinion) engaging a linear gear (the rack) . Together, they convert between rotational motion and linear motion: rotating the pinion causes the rack to be driven in a line.

6. Timing P ulleyes : Timing Pulley/Belts are  a positive drive for the transfer of rotary mechanical force . Low backlash drive, high resolution for motion control applications, as well as low maintenance for continuous operations. Sprockets : A  sprocket ,  sprocket -wheel or chainwheel is a profiled wheel with teeth that mesh with a chain, rack or other perforated or indented material.

7. Bar Stock : Bar stock, also (colloquially) known as blank, slug or billet, is  a common form of raw purified metal, used by industry to manufacture metal parts and products . Bar stock is available in a variety of extrusion shapes and lengths. Poly V Pulleys : Poly-V-belt pulleys in PL profile are  the basic type of poly-V-belt pulleys . They are produced in standard series and dimensions of gray cast iron. Their design is based on ISO 9982 (DIN 7867) standards. The standard pulleys are mounted on shafts using the Taper Lock bushes.

8. Sheet metal pulley : A sheet metal pulley is a type of pulley made primarily from sheet metal, which is a thin, flat piece of metal formed into a specific shape or structure. These pulleys are used in various mechanical systems to transmit motion and power between shafts using a belt, rope, or chain. Bushes : Bushings are the bearing with multiple uses and names – bushing, bushes and often times just the term bearing is used. Bushings by definition are usually  a removable cylindrical part for an opening or bore (as of a mechanical part) .
