diametaltandning

Diametaltandning refers to a specific type of gear tooth engagement where the pitch surfaces of two meshing gears are in contact along a line that passes through the center of rotation for both gears. This line is the diameter of the pitch circle. In a diametaltandning configuration, the teeth are designed such that their contact points, when projected onto the plane of rotation, all lie on this common diameter. This precise alignment is crucial for smooth and efficient power transmission.

This gearing arrangement is often associated with gears that have a significant number of teeth and are designed for high precision applications. The diametaltandning principle helps to minimize runout and wobble, ensuring that the gears rotate with a very stable and predictable motion. It is a geometric characteristic that influences the kinematics of the gear pair. Understanding diametaltandning is important in the design and analysis of mechanical systems where accurate and consistent rotational movement is paramount. The concept is rooted in the fundamental geometry of gear meshing.
