An extremely wide selection of different plastic materials is currently available on the market. A major limitation, however, is a huge gap in gear-specific material data on these materials, which is a problem that has been persisting for decades now. Providing a step towards a solution is the German guideline VDI 2736, which proposes design rating methods (Ref. 2) along with testing procedures (Ref. 3) to be followed to generate reliable data required in the gear rating process. This paper delves into the current state of the art in plastic gear testing, providing a comprehensive overview of employed testing methods, supplemented with case studies.

Lubricants and tribological systems are undergoing rapid change. The challenges and uncertainties are enormous. Ecological challenges such as the de-carbonization of industry, mobility and society on the one hand, economic challenges such as the resilience of global supply chains on the other, are changing the way lubricants and tribological systems will be developed, validated, produced and applied in the future.
If you are experiencing reduced cooling, increased cycle times and/or dirty, contaminated parts then your vacuum furnace's heat exchanger might be the cause. Over the course of time and production, materials will deposit on the fins of the heat exchanger, which can result in a number of issues. In this video, we examine what a heat exchanger is supposed to look like vs. what it looks like after it has collected layers of contaminants. We also discuss how often the heat exchanger, and its cooling coils should be inspected so as to ensure optimum performance and part quality.
