What are the many unique advantages of Plastic Parts gear spares over metal gears?

1. Lightweight: Plastic gears are significantly lighter than their metallic prototypes, this means reduced assembly mass and therefore a higher energy utilization efficiency especially when used in portable applications and processes that require accurate control.

2. Noise reduction: A substantial amount of noise is produced by metal gears during their operation while plastic gears create much less noise during their operation and this is very important in noise-sensitive applications, for example, office equipment and household appliances among others.

3. Self-lubricating: Most plastics possess inherent lubricity that decreases the friction between gears therefore eliminating the need to use lubrication thus decreasing the cost of maintenance and making the final product less complex.

4. Cost-effectiveness: Plastic gears can generally be produced at a cheaper cost than metal gears, especially for assembling a huge number in the industry. Second, the materials used in plastic gears are relatively cheaper than the gears made from metals, and fabrication through processes such as injection mold makes the issue of cost even cheaper.

5. Corrosion resistance: Plastic gears also enjoy good corrosion resistance to many of the chemical environments, it is suitable for use in corrosive climates.

6. Design Flexibility: It can be noted that plastic gears can be produced by Custom Injection Molded Products in various shapes and structures including internal gears, helical gears, helical gears and others through the injection molding process to offer flexibility of design.

7. Low Wear: This paper has established that through a selection of appropriate materials, plastic gears can exhibit low wearing rates and as a result increase the durability of gears.
