| Investigating the Effects of Wear, Lubrication and Material Pairing on the NVH Performance of Plastic Gears |
High-performance polymer gears are increasingly supplanting their metallic counterparts across diverse engineering applications, attributable to their multifaceted advantages. These include a markedly lower density contributing to weight reduction, intrinsic self-lubricating properties obviating the need for external lubrication, cost-efficient scalability in production, enhanced noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) performance, and superior resistance to chemical degradation and corrosion.
