Abstract

In the article research related to the increasing in the scope of application of additive technologies in the construction of machines for the production of gears with involute and sinusoidal profile from polymeric materials was presented. The designed original research stand and with its use carried out a series of preliminary fatigue tests of the obtained polymer gears with an involute and sinusoidal profile was show. The tested gears were obtained in the technology of rapid prototyping by the FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication) method from polymer composites obtained in the form of an ABS (acrylonitrile/butadiene/styrene) – based filament. Based on the results obtained, it was noticed that the temperature in the meshing zone of the gears with involute profiles is higher than for sinusoidal profiles, regardless of the type of composite from which the gears were made. It should also be noted that in the range of nominal load, the sound intensity level of the meshing zone is also lower for gears with a sinusoidal profile than for gears with an involute profile. Based on the tests carried out, an increase in sound intensity was noticed in the case of gears obtained from selected composites (Table 2) compared to the gear obtained from unfilled ABS. However, in the case of gears obtained from the tested composite materials, we observe a decrease in the gear operating temperature (Table 2). The most favorable results of these tests were obtained for gears with a sinusoidal profile obtained from ABS + P2 composite, which show the lowest operating temperature of the gear. It should also be mentioned that slightly worse results were obtained for involute gears.
