Does helical gear have axial force?

Does the helical gear have an axial force? How to judge the axial force direction of the helical gear may not be very clear to many people. The following EP has compiled some content explanations for your reference.

1,helical gearThere is an axial force. The axial force is the component force of the gear, which is mainly determined by the helix angle.If you want to reduce the axial force, you can deal with it by reducing the helix angle during product design.

The formula for calculating the axial force of the helical gear is as follows:

2. Judgment method of helical gear axial force direction

Axial force The active tooth is left-handed with left hand, right-handed with right hand, four-finger gripgearThe thumb is the direction of the axial force in the direction of rotation; if it is a passive tooth, use the hand opposite to the direction of rotation, or judge from the direction of the axial force and the force and reaction force of the active tooth that meshes with it.

The above is the relevant description about the axial force of the helical gear, including but not limited to, welcome to add if there are any deficiencies.
