Design and analysis of spur gear by using composite material

Abstract

Gearing is one of the most critical components in a mechanical power transmission system, and in most industrial rotating
machinery. It is possible that gears will predominate as the most effective means of transmitting power in future machines due to
their high degree of reliability and compactness. In addition, the rapid shift in the industry from heavy industries such as
shipbuilding to industries such as automobile manufacture and office automation tools will necessitate a refined application of
gear technology. Design the spur gear to study the weight reduction and stress distribution for cast steel and composite materials
and to design the spur gear model using Creo software. After Creating a model of spur gear analysis will be Carried out from
gear made up cast steel and composite material in ANSYS Environment. Finally, comparing and analysing of the composite gear
with existing cast steel gear is to be done.
