  Gears are a key component of mechanical motors and actuators. They increase the output torque and control the direction or speed of rotation. CLR has extensive experience in the manufacture of plastic and metal gears of various shapes and sizes: spur gears, incandescent empty gears, planetary gears and helical gears; Sprockets, bolts or other types of teeth. Among them, helical and spur gears are generally the most widely used in many industrial applications? Would you like to know more about the differences and characteristics? This article can help. Helical gear: advantages and disadvantages. Helical gears work smoother and quieter than spur gears. This difference is due to the oblique way in which the teeth interact with respect to the axis of rotation. These axes can be parallel or generally intersect at 90 °. In the case of crossover, helical gears are applied together with helical gears, but in this case two bevel gears can be used alternately. When the two teeth move, c
