SALCEY PRECISION ENGINEERING LTD. Competitors

When PEM began in 1975, we recognized that there was good demand for custom-designed gear boxes, especially for applications where high shock loads were encountered and space considerations were important. After years of research on how to make gear teeth strong and how to increase power density, we designed our proprietary MEGAGEAR® and UNIMEGAGEAR® gear geometries. With this new technology, we were able to competitively manufacture gearboxes with excellent durability and efficiency while using less material and labor. Our MEGAGEAR and UNIMEGAGEAR technology offers several advantages over conventional gears. We precisely calculated the optimal section of the involute curve as the tooth profile, which results in a greater contact area between gear teeth. The increased contact area reduces compressive stress, increases surface fatigue life and makes load distribution more uniform. Our geometry also eliminates the possibility of tooth tip shearing. In addition, gearboxes using MEGAGEAR or UNIMEGAGEAR technology perform better than those using standard gears. Equivalent-size gearboxes can have 35% more horsepower using MEGAGEAR or 45% more horsepower using UNIMEGAGEAR. In hydrostatic applications, the greater contact area between gear teeth allows for a thicker oil film, which improves mechanical load transfer. Since our gears have such low tooth deflection compared to conventional gears, gearboxes using MEGAGEAR or UNIMEGAGEAR will run much quieter than other gearboxes.

UK Precision Ltd is a sub-contract precision engineering company specialising in the supply of high quality machined components using the latest CNC technology which is also part of the Leviathan Engineering Group. Sector experience includes Motorsport, Medical, Marine, Defence, Hydraulics, Electronic and Rail. CORE SERVICES SPECIALIST COMPONENT PRODUCTION UKP supplies high quality milled and turned components, in a wide range of materials, using advanced machinery for one off to high volume production components. DESIGN & CAD/CAM We use Solid works for 3D modelling to either assist in customer designs or come up with a part from scratch. We adopt a design for manufacture approach ensuring the final design is something that can be replicated on our machines. We also use 3D models (our own or customer supplied) to generate programs for our machines in our ONECNC Cam Software helping to improve accuracy and right first time setups.
