42CrMo Wear Impact Resistance Long Life 180 Polishing Machine Gear In China
180 polishing machine gears are core transmission components for 180mm-diameter vertical/plain polishing machines, including sun gear, planet gear, internal ring gear, spindle spur/helical gear, timing gear, compatible with YCP180, HY-180, YH2M8180, etc. Made of 20CrMnTi/40Cr/42CrMo with carburizing/induction hardening + precision grinding, they feature high torque, impact resistance, wear resistance, low noise, high parallelism and long service life. They transmit power for polishing disc rotation, workpiece revolution/rotation, pressure adjustment, variable frequency speed control, directly determining flatness, roughness Ra≤0.08μm, polishing uniformity, yield ≥98.5%. They are the “transmission heart” for precision polishing of optical glass, sapphire, ceramics, semiconductors and metal parts.

Working Principle
- Power input: Motor drives spindle/sun gear to transmit high-speed, low-torque power.
- Planetary reduction & torque boost: Sun gear drives planet gears to revolve and rotate around ring gear, reduce speed 3–10 times, amplify torque, driving polishing disc at low speed and high torque.
- Workpiece revolution + rotation: Planet gears drive workpiece carriers for revolution (with planet carrier) + rotation (meshing), uniform polishing on all surfaces.
- Fixed-axis synchronous drive: Spindle helical gears drive upper/lower shafts/pressure mechanisms, synchronously control disc pressure and speed to ensure flatness.
- VFD speed control & forward/reverse: Gears adapt to VFD motors for smooth speed adjustment and bi-directional operation, suitable for rough/finish/ultra-fine polishing.
- Precise meshing & positioning: Precision grinding + pair lapping, central contact zone, uniform backlash, low vibration and high flatness.
Main Applications
- Optical component polishing: 180mm spherical/aspherical lenses, prisms, sapphire windows.
- Semiconductor/hard brittle materials: Silicon wafers, SiC, ceramic substrates, glass cover plates.
- Metal mirror polishing: Stainless steel, aluminum, copper deburring and mirror finish.
- Flat polishing machine transmission: Planetary/spindle gear sets for YCP180, HY-180, YH2M8180, etc.
- Planet wheel/carrier drive: Workpiece revolution/rotation mechanisms for double-sided polishers, ensuring uniformity.
- VFD speed control system: Adapt to 0–3000rpm VFD motors, rough/finish speed switching.
- Pressure adjustment mechanism: Gears drive lifting/pressing components for precise polishing pressure control.
- Old equipment replacement: Gear set replacement for 18B-9P, YH2M8180, etc.
