Our Project |
A set of bevel gears failed before they achieved their expected standards during a project being done by the Harris Corporation. They speculated that this failure could be contributed to the gears being misaligned or overloaded. They also noted that the Anodic coating on the gear surface started to fail leading to abrasion of the gear’s teeth. |

Project Scope |
Our senior design group will design and build a Bevel Gear Test Bed that is fully adjustable and highly precise. The test bed should be able to test a wide range of bevel gear sizes and different materials. |
