JMB Helical Gearbox

Helical gears are one type of cylindrical gears where the teeth are curved into a helix shape. Compared to spur gears (straight teeth), properly designed helical gears can have a larger total contact ratio which can improve vibration and noise.The most common use for helical gears is in automotive transmissions. Helical gears are ideal for high-speed applications because they suffer from less friction and wear than other gears, but they're still capable of transferring significant amounts of force.
