Crown Wheel and Pinion Backlash Calcs.
Crown Wheel and Pinion Backlash Calcs.
(OP)
We are installing a new crown wheel and pinion gear in a ships Bow Thruster. I need to shim the crown wheel to achieve the correct backlash clearance of 0.23mm, at the moment I have 2.4mm. Does anyone know of a formula for working this out????

I would shim as close as you dare and then re-measure.
