Turning

Gear turning is a machining process used to give shapes to gear forging by removing material from the outer diameter of a workpiece. This process is normally consist of two parts-rough turning and fine turning. 
Rough turning is the initial stage of the turning process. The goal of rough turning is to remove the majority of the material efficiently, leaving behind a workpiece with a rough surface.
Fine turning, also known as finish turning, is the second stage of the turning process. After rough turning, the workpiece is closer to its final dimensions, and fine turning is performed to achieve the desired accuracy, surface finish, and tolerances

Gear Production

Belon—First class production process, leading to perfect performance.
Gears often operate under high loads, speeds, and torque. 
Gear production process influences the material properties, surface finish, and heat treatment of gears, which collectively determine their durability and reliability. A well-controlled production process results in gears that can withstand wear, fatigue, and other stress-related factors, leading to longer service life.
At Belon, we match different customer’s requirements with suitable production process, to utmostly offer good performance gears.

Forging

Gear forging is a manufacturing process used to create gears by shaping and forming metal materials through controlled deformation under heat and pressure. It involves transforming a raw material, usually a metal billet or blank, into the desired gear shape by applying compressive forces using specialized machinery and dies. The primary goal of gear forging is to produce gears with enhanced material properties, precision, and durability compared to other manufacturing methods. Here's an overview of the gear forging process:

1. Material Selection
2. Heating
3. Die Preparation
4. Forming
5. Cooling
6. Finishing

Gear heat treatment is a crucial process in the manufacturing of gears. By modifying the physical, chemical and metallurgical properties of the gear, heat treatment can optimize and even extend the life of the gear, making this process a critical one in gear manufacturing. Different methods of heat treatment can improve both surface and core hardness, boost machinability, enhance ductility and strength, minimize distortions, and reduce wear and tear.
Some heat treatment processes target the whole gear, while others may be directed at certain parts of the gear, such as the teeth. Hence, depending on the requirements of the specific gear application, different types of heat treatments may be utilized.
Annealing and normalizing are processes used to soften the gear or part and relieve residual stress. Some of the more prevalent processes to harden the gear are through or direct hardening, case hardening —carburizing, carbonitriding, nitriding, nitrocarburizing, and applied energy hardening — flame, laser, induction.

Gear Grinding

In gear manufacturing, gear grinding is a finishing method which utilizes abrasive wheels to exclude small variations on gear teeth. It is generally known to be the most perfect way to end a high precision gear, giving a more accurate tooth finish than gear cutting.
Due to their specific gear geometry, ground gears offer great meshing effectiveness and stable operation, working more quietly and consuming more evenly than cut gears. They can also manage greater loads and are helpful when large amounts of energy are required. For these purposes, they are often seen in equipment that requires high performance and safety.

Gear inspection is a critical step in the manufacturing and quality control process of gears. At Belon, we are extremely particular in our gear inspection process. All gears and splines are inspected according to customer requirements and specifications as well as international standards. 
Before every shipping, Belon sends full set of inspection report to customers, meanwhile offers attentive quality assurance service, aimed to provide products that satisfy our customers.
