This gear is engineered around material performance first — we do not force a universal “one-material-fits-all" part for every tightening machine. We select, machine and validate every batch based on your exact load cycle, working environment and service life target.
We support a full library of machinable materials for this part, including:
6061 / 7075 T6 Aluminum
12L14 / 4140 / 304 / 316 Stainless Steel
POM / Delrin / Nylon 66 + GF engineering plastics
Titanium Grade 2 / Grade 5
Custom specialty alloys upon request
✅ Key Advantage Note: Unlike generic off-the-shelf gears, every material variant of this C-type open gear is re-tooled on our 5-axis machines with dedicated feeds, speeds and fixturing, so the tooth profile accuracy, C-slot parallelism and clamping strength stay consistent across different material choices.
Because this part has a continuous curved C-slot running through the full gear body, plus synchronized tooth geometry on both sides of the opening, it cannot be reliably produced on standard 3-axis CNC machines. Our 5-axis simultaneous workflow eliminates almost every failure point common to this part category:
Single-setup full-part machining
No re-clamping, no secondary operations. The complete gear teeth, C-slot, inner bore and mounting face are finished in one continuous cycle, so concentricity error drops below 0.008 mm.
Uniform tooth profile across the split
⚡ Critical selling point: Most machined split gears have a tiny, uneven step on the teeth right next to the opening slot. Our 5-axis tool path cuts the full tooth circumference as one uninterrupted path, so there is zero profile discontinuity at the C-opening.
Built-in clamping preload consistency
The C-slot opening deflection under specified tightening torque is pre-calibrated per material, so you get predictable, repeatable shaft grip every cycle, no shimming required.
Full edge break and micro-deburr
Every tooth root, slot edge and bore corner is hand-finished and visual-inspected, so no loose micro-chips will ever break off inside your tightening station.
✅ Zero-backlash shaft locking — The C-slot clamps evenly around the driven shaft, no keyway play, no lag between motor rotation and screw output. Ideal for high-precision torque control on electric screwdriver axes.
✅ High cycle life under repeated start-stop loads — One-piece 5-axis construction removes the weak points that break on stamped or sintered powder metal gears after 100k+ tightening cycles.
✅ Easy field replacement — The split open design lets maintenance teams swap the gear without disassembling the full tightening head, cutting downtime by over 70%.
✅ Full reverse compatibility — We can match your existing legacy gear geometry 1:1, no redesign or re-tooling needed on your machine side.
Q1: Can you modify the C-slot size or tooth module for my existing equipment?
A: Yes. We accept fully custom 2D/3D drawings, reverse engineering from your original sample, or performance-based specifications (torque rating, shaft diameter, RPM) to produce an exact drop-in match. All 5-axis tool paths are programmed in-house, no third-party outsourcing.
Q2: Do you offer different surface treatments for different materials?
A: Absolutely. We support anodizing (hard / clear / color), black oxide, passivation, PTFE coating, sandblasting and oil-impregnation for engineering plastic versions, all done in-house or through certified local partners.
Q3: Can you ship small prototype quantities, or do you only accept large MOQ orders?
A: We run this part for 1-piece prototyping all the way up to mass production runs. There is no enforced MOQ for custom CNC components, so you can test the gear on your tightening machine first before scaling.
Q4: How do you validate the quality of each 5-axis machined gear before shipment?
A: Every batch goes through three inspection steps: first in-process dimension check on the machine, second CMM coordinate measurement for critical concentricity and tooth profile, third visual and runout test on a dedicated mandrel. We can provide full inspection reports and material certification upon request.
