Precision Spur & Helical Gears
Precision Sun Gears serve as the high-speed input core of precision planetary gearboxes and servo drive reducers. Engineered with micro-geometric lead crowning, ultra-fine tooth grinding (Ra ≤ 0.2 μm), and DIN 4 accuracy for low noise, low backlash, and >98% efficiency.
Sango Automation Limited is a recognized leader in high-precision gear manufacturing in China. With state-of-the-art CNC grinding centers and advanced heat treatment lines, we supply world-class precision sun gears for robotics, wind power, and servo drive systems.
Features
Engineered for high-speed input rotation, balanced planetary load sharing, and minimal transmission error.
Micro-geometric Tooth Profile Crowning
Optimal 3D longitudinal and involute crowning prevents tooth edge stress concentrations and ensures uniform planetary load sharing under deflection.
Ultra-High Tooth Grinding Precision (DIN 4 / AGMA 12)
Ground on Reishauer and Klingelnberg CNC gear grinders to achieve pitch error ≤ 3 μm and concentricity runout ≤ 0.003 mm.
Deep Case Carburizing & Cryogenic Tempering
Manufactured from 18CrNiMo7-6 and 20CrMnTi alloy steel with HRC 58–62 surface hardness, HRC 35 core toughness, and deep fatigue resistance.
Integrated Involute Splines & Motor Couplings
Available as integrated shaft designs with DIN 5480 splines, precision collet clamps, or keyways for zero-slip torque transmission.

Differences from Standard Spur Pinions
Why specialized sun gears are essential for planetary gearboxes compared to general-purpose spur pinions.

Application Scenarios
Precision sun gears are the critical high-speed drive component in robotic joints, servo planetary reducers, electric vehicle drivetrains, and precision medical actuators.
