Gear Expo is right around the corner, and that means that pretty soon all things gearing will be squarely in the spotlight. Custom gear manufacturing services, design software, gearboxes and more — you'll be able to learn everything you need to know about who and what's going to be at the show in our upcoming September issue, but until then, here's a brief sneak peak of one specific corner of the show: gear drives.
Most of you who read this magazine have a close relationship with gears and gear drives. According to our surveys, 75% of you recommend, specify or buy them. It's a shame, then, that the majority of you will
miss Gear Expo (Oct. 24-26 in Columbus, OH) this year.
Dana Incorporated recently announced that it is providing driveshaft assemblies and gearboxes for the New York Wheel - which will be the world's tallest observation wheel. This attraction is currently under construction on the north shore of Staten Island in New York City and will stand 630 feet (192 meters) high when completed in early 2018.
The Dynabox servo worm is designed specifically for demanding servo driven applications. It offers 5 output shaft styles for maximum mounting versatility. 3 backlash levels of 1, 5 and 10 arc minutes satisfy requirements from high precision to general motion control.
