Gear Train
A gear train is formed by mounting gears on a frame so that the teeth of the gears engage. Gear teeth are designed to ensure the pitch circles of engaging gears roll on each other without slipping; this provides a smooth transmission of rotation from one gear to the next. • A gear train is two or more gear working together by meshing their teeth and turning each other in a system to generate power and speed • It reduces speed and increases torque • Electric motors are used with the gear systems to reduce the speed and increase the torque Types of gear train § Simple gear train § Compound gear train § Epicyclic gear train § Reverted gear train
