Product Description

Yile Machinery is a premier manufacturer of custom-engineered gears for heavy industrial power transmission. We specialize in producing both large-diameter helical gears and high-torque herringbone pinions, built to your exact specifications for unmatched reliability and performance.

Our Core Gearing Capabilities

We have the expertise and equipment to produce the two most critical gear types used in heavy-duty gearboxes and drive systems.

Large-Diameter Helical Gears

Ideal for high-speed and high-load applications, helical gears provide a smoother, quieter operation than spur gears. The angled teeth engage more gradually, distributing the load and reducing impact stress and vibration.

  • Applications: Grinding Mills (Ball, SAG), Rotary Kilns, Industrial Mixers, Conveyor Drives.

  • Capability: We can manufacture large-scale helical gears, often used as the main "girth gear" or "bull gear" in large rotating equipment.

  • Process: Manufactured from high-strength forged steel and precision-cut on our large-capacity CNC gear hobbing machines.

High-Torque Herringbone (Double Helical) Pinions

The ultimate solution for high-torque transmission, the herringbone (or double helical) design features a V-shaped tooth structure that cancels out axial thrust forces. This allows for massive power transfer without loading adjacent bearings.

  • Applications: Steel Mill Drives, Marine Propulsion Systems, High-Pressure Pumps, Extruder Gearboxes.

  • Capability: We specialize in manufacturing the drive pinions that mesh with large herringbone gears, which are subjected to the highest stress in the system.

  • Process: Precision machined and gear-cut from superior forged alloys like 42CrMo or 34CrNiMo6, followed by specialized heat treatment for optimal surface hardness and core toughness.

From Forged Steel to Finished Gear: Our Manufacturing Process

Whether it's a large helical gear or a robust herringbone pinion, our quality-controlled process ensures a superior final product.

  1. Engineering Review: We work with your technical drawings (OEM or custom) to ensure all manufacturing parameters are clearly defined.

  2. Material Forging: We begin with high-quality forged steel blanks. This process creates a refined grain structure that provides significantly higher impact strength and fatigue resistance compared to cast iron or bar stock.

  3. Precision CNC Machining: The forged blank is turned and milled to precise dimensions, preparing it for gear cutting.

  4. Advanced Gear Cutting: Using specialized CNC hobbing, shaping, or milling machines, we generate the precise tooth geometry—whether a single helix or a complex double helix.

  5. Targeted Heat Treatment: The gear undergoes a controlled heat treatment cycle (e.g., Quenching & Tempering, Carburizing, Nitriding) to achieve the specified hardness for wear resistance while maintaining core ductility.

  6. Final Grinding & Quality Inspection: For the highest precision, teeth can be ground after heat treatment. Every gear is subjected to rigorous quality inspection, including dimensional checks, hardness testing, and Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) like Magnetic Particle (MT) or Ultrasonic (UT) inspection.
