Heidelberg ZD.2168-503-00-01 Gear

The gear, also known as a cogwheel, pinion, or toothed disc, is a helical-toothed gear in mechanical drive technology. It is manufactured by the Heidelberg company under type number ZD.2168-503-00-01. It has dimensions 10 x 10 x 10 cm and weighs 0.5 kg. Gears serve to transmit torque and rotational speed between rotating shafts. Helical gears offer quieter and smoother transmission as well as higher load capacity compared to straight-toothed versions. Typical applications are found in mechanical engineering, for example in the gearboxes of printing machines or textile machines, as well as in automation technology for precise positioning tasks.
