Gear Box

Why Heat Dissipation Matters in Gearbox Design Gearboxes operate under high loads and speeds, generating significant heat due to friction, gear meshing, and lubricant shear. Poor thermal management can lead to: DesignWithAjay emphasizes that thermal design is not an afterthought — it’s integral to performance and longevity. Design Philosophy: “Passive First, Active If Needed” Before jumping to fans…

At Ajay Industries, we design gearboxes that don’t just transmit torque—they deliver precision, longevity, and modular scalability. In high-performance applications, even a micron-level deviation can lead to vibration, misalignment, or premature wear. That’s why DesignWithAjay  treats micro-tolerances not as a luxury—but as a core design principle. This guide explores how we define, control, and validate micro-tolerances in gearbox design, ensuring every product meets industrial-grade performance standards. What Are Micro-Tolerances? Micro-tolerances refer to dimensional allowances typically within ±0.005 mm to ±0.02 mm, applied to critical mating surfaces, bearing seats, gear teeth, and shaft interfaces. These tolerances: DesignWithAjay’s Micro-Tolerance Strategy 1. CAD-Driven Precision Ajay Tip: We use SolidWorks DimXpert and tolerance analysis tools to validate stack-ups before prototyping. 2. Manufacturing Alignment Ajay Tip:…

At Ajay Industries, we believe that great design doesn’t stop at performance it extends to how easily a product can be serviced, upgraded, and understood.  Our modular gearbox systems are engineered not just for torque and durability, but for intuitive  maintenance, component interchangeability, and visual clarity in documentation. Whether you’re designing for SPMs, industrial shredders, or automation systems, our modular gearboxes  simplify the lifecycle of mechanical systems—from assembly to repair. What Is Modular Gearbox Design? Modular gearbox design means: This approach reduces downtime, simplifies inventory, and empowers technicians with clear, actionable documentation. Key Features of DesignWithAjay Gearboxes 1. Split Housing Architecture 2. Bolt-On Gear Stages 3. Visual BOM Integration 4. Standardized Shaft Couplings 5. Drain & Inspection Ports CAD-Driven Maintenance Philosophy At DesignWithAjay, every…

Choosing the right gearbox architecture is critical to optimizing torque delivery, space efficiency, noise levels, and manufacturing cost. At Ajay Industries, we engineer gearboxes for industrial shredders, automation systems, and custom 3D-printed mechanisms. This guide breaks down the strengths and trade-offs of Helical, Spur, and Planetary gearboxes to help you select the best fit for your application. Quick Comparison Table…
