Scientists at New York University and NYU Shanghai have developed a new kind of gear that works without teeth or direct ...

A team of New York University scientists has created a gear mechanism that relies on fluids to generate rotation. The ...

From the chariot wheels crossing the Gobi Desert in 3,000 BCE to the intricate bronze clockwork of the Antikythera mechanism ...

A new study reimagines the 3,000-year-old technology using fluids, avoiding the most annoying limitations of teeth-driven ...

“We invented new types of gears that engage by spinning up fluid rather than interlocking teeth—and we discovered new ...

Gear tooth geometry is determined primarily by pitch, depth, and pressure angle. Pitch: Standard pitches are usually whole numbers when measured as diametral pitch P, the ratio of the number of teeth ...

The ATS617 gear-tooth sensor IC is a peak-detecting device that uses automatic gain control and an integrated capacitor to provide extremely accurate gear edge detection down to low operating speeds.

Even before the Industrial Revolution, gears of one kind or another have been put to work both for and against us. From ancient water wheels and windmills that ground grain and pounded flax, to the ...

Engineers and manufacturers often speak of “gear quality.” In the U.S. the term is usually associated with a quality number based on AGMA criteria – this number is by no means a comprehensive ...
