As the core component of gear system, ring is widely used in wind power, engineering machinery, automobile transmission and other fields. Its ring structure realizes power transmission through meshing with pinion gears, featuring strong bearing capacity and smooth transmission. At present, the mainstream gear ring is made of 20CrMnTi alloy steel by carburizing and quenching process, and the hardness can reach HRC58-62, and some precision equipments adopt grinding process to make the precision reach ISO 5 level or above.
Technology Trend: With the growth of lightweight demand, some companies began to explore the feasibility of carbon fiber composite ring, but the metal ring is still the mainstream choice.
