composite gear

Composite gear housings require more expensive and reliable cooling systems.

Sikorsky used graphite-epoxy material for manufacturing of composite gear housing.

Boeing and Sikorsky currently conduct the development of helicopter composite gear housing.

Sikorsky aircraft has widely advertised its progress on developing of composite gear housing for aerospace application.

The composite gear housing does not remove heat as efficiently as an aluminum or magnesium housing.

Special Synthetic gear oil is required for proper operation and lifespan of the carbon composite gear synchronizers.

Composite gear housing refers to the use of composite materials to enclose the components of motor transmissions.

Composite gear transmission housing for aerospace is in development stage under the Advanced Rotorcraft Transmission program.

The composite gear housing was manufactured with bearing interfaces identical to the original steel housing; sic "therefore the internal components will fit into the housing."

In 2004 the US Department of Defense decided to finance development of a composite gear housing for a main rotor helicopter planetary gear box.

Gear Mechanic Co. uses composite gear housing for making a light weight and low inertia hypoid gear case for a racing car drive axles.

Because of the low hardness, the composite gear housing requires numerous metal inserts laminated into the composite exterior or installed with adhesive in the prefabricated composite housing.

Gear Mechanic Corporation in Las Vegas, NV manufacturing composite gear housings for automotive and aerospace applications along with worm face gears.

During the AIAA/SEA/ASME/ASEE conference in Nashville, TN, 6-8 July 1992, NASA published a picture describing one of proposed design embodiment of composite gear housing for an aircraft.
