Research on the Method of Improving the Precision of Parts in Pearl River Delta Gear Enterprises: Analysis of Gear Transmission Error and Tooth Friction Coefficient Based on the Influence of Tooth Surface Roughness

Abstract

Tooth surface roughness is an important index to evaluate the quality of gear processing, which affects the gear transmission error and tooth friction coefficient and changes the gear dynamics. Based on the fractal theory, the gear error correction model considering time-varying roughness is derived, and the new model of time-varying roughness and gear error is introduced into the Xu model to construct the friction coefficient model accounting for time-varying roughness and gear error, which has great reference value for improving the accuracy of gear error. The research results show that the root mean square value of gear error increases by 45.39% and 101.08% under comparison Ra = 0.8 μm, Ra = 1.6 μm, and R a = 3.2 μm, respectively, and the root mean square value of time-varying friction coefficient increases by 45.74% and 148.18%, respectively, which provides theoretical method support for precision management and quality management of gear processing in machinery enterprises.
