Gear Modules and Belon Gear’s Precision Manufacturing Advantage

In the world of gear engineering, accuracy begins with the fundamentals and one of the most critical concepts is the gear module. At Belon Gear, we specialize in manufacturing high precision gears tailored to a wide range of module sizes to meet global mechanical standards and diverse industrial needs.

What Is a Gear Module?

The gear module (symbol: m) is a key parameter in metric gear systems, representing the ratio of the pitch diameter to the number of teeth on a gear. In simple terms, it defines the size and spacing of the gear teeth. A larger module means bigger teeth and a stronger gear suitable for high load applications; a smaller module allows for finer, more compact gears, ideal for high speed or lightweight systems.

Module is expressed in millimeters and is widely used in Europe, Asia, and many global industries, in contrast to the diametral pitch system used in the U.S. For example:

• Module 1.0 = small, fine teeth (used in robotics or precision devices)

• Module 6.0 = larger, stronger teeth (used in mining, cement, heavy duty gearboxes)

Belon Gear’s Capability in Gear Modules

At Belon Gear, we manufacture gears across a broad range of modules, from Module 0.5 to Module 20 plus, depending on material, tooth profile, and application. Whether you need spur gears, helical gears, bevel gears, or worm gears, we tailor every gear to meet precise module and tolerance requirements.

Our in house engineering team uses advanced CAD CAM software and German inspection systems to ensure tooth geometry is optimized for both strength and quiet operation. Every gear undergoes strict quality control processes including:

• Gear hobbing or shaping with precise module cutting tools

• Heat treatment for hardness and durability

• Gear grinding especially for higher module gears under heavy loads

Global Applications

Gears with different modules are used across industries:

• Module 0.5–2.0: Robotics, medical devices, automation systems

• Module 2.5–5.0: Automotive, textile machines, food processing

• Module 6.0+: Cement kilns, crushers, mining gearboxes, marine winches

Belon Gear supports both standard DIN ISO modules and custom designed profiles based on client specific drawings or reverse engineering samples. We also provide consultation on module selection to balance load, speed, and material cost effectively.

From micro precision to heavy industry, Belon Gear delivers gear module expertise with world class reliability. Let us help you engineer the perfect gear for your application.
