Product Description
The driving pinion shaft is one of the most highly stressed components in a vehicle's axle or a machine's final drive. It must flawlessly transmit immense torque, withstand constant rotational forces, and maintain a perfect gear mesh under heavy load.
Yile Machinery is a specialized manufacturer of custom driving pinion shafts, engineered for maximum strength, durability, and performance. We transform high-grade steel forgings into precision components that meet or exceed OEM specifications.
As the input gear in a differential or final drive gear set, the pinion is responsible for:
Transmitting Power: It takes power from the driveshaft and delivers it to the ring gear.
Changing Power Direction: It typically turns the direction of power by 90 degrees.
Providing Gear Reduction: Its small size relative to the ring gear creates the final gear reduction, multiplying torque to the wheels.
Failure of this single component leads to catastrophic failure of the entire drive system. That is why manufacturing quality is not just a detail—it's everything.
Our multi-stage manufacturing process is designed to produce pinion shafts that can withstand the most demanding applications.
Superior Materials & Forging: We begin with certified, high-strength alloy steels specifically designed for gearing, such as 20CrMnTi or 42CrMo. The material is forged to create a near-net shape with an ideal grain structure for superior fatigue and shock resistance.
Precision CNC Machining: The forged blank is precision-turned to create the shaft profile. Then, using advanced CNC gear hobbing or milling, we cut the helical gear teeth to the exact profile required for a smooth, quiet mesh.
Advanced Heat Treatment: The machined pinion undergoes a critical carburizing and quenching process (case hardening). This creates an extremely hard, wear-resistant surface on the gear teeth while maintaining a softer, tougher core that can absorb shock loads without fracturing.
Precision Grinding: After heat treatment, the gear teeth and critical bearing surfaces are precision ground. This final step corrects any minor distortion from the hardening process, ensuring perfect gear geometry, a superior surface finish, and minimal operational noise.
