Hi,
We are manufacturers of gear head lathe machine of upto 1.5m as admit between centre (heavy duty lathes)
Can nylon or acetal or othe plastic material be used for making gears.
Let's have an example : Motor shaft of 1.5Hp power has gear of 4" dia of 1.5 module running at 1200 rpm. Will this gear will run smoothly with other gear of same module and no. of teeth (how much wear will be there, on teeth profile or in the bore of gear)
IS IT FEASIBLE,
