A helical is a spur gear with an angle along the face to increase the gear contact ratio. The gear teeth are cut at angles

How do you remove helical gears form the shaft?

To remove helical gears from a shaft, first ensure the assembly is properly supported and secured. If the gear is fixed with a key, remove the key using a suitable tool. Then, use a gear puller to apply even pressure and gently extract the gear from the shaft. If the gear is stubborn, heating the gear or applying penetrating oil may help ease its removal.


Herring bone gears used when it required that?

herringbone gears are used when the speed requirement is even higher than that can be taken by the helical gears and they are even more noiseless and vibration free. This is because the bending moment that gets induced in the gear shaft of a helical gear is neutralised by another force acting against it in a herringbone gear.
