Gears are the crucial element of any transmission system which generally used for power transmission. Such type of part must be check by using the highly accurate methodology in order to assess its functional performance in advance. The inspection methodology of gears should be accurate with less time consuming procedure for its inspection. This gear test rig will check the gear in minimum time which results in a decrease of non-productive time and improves plant efficiency. Keywords: Parkinson’s Gear Tester, Gear test rig, Gear Metrology, Mechanical Project. I. INTRODUCTION Today we are living in a generation in which world requires speed on each and every field. Hence most important part is rapidness and quick working. For achieving this rapidness, man manufactures various machines and equipments are manufactured in order to keep the growth rapid. The Engineer must bring new ideas and design into reality. New machines, equipment’s and the method s are being developed continuously for production of various product at low cost and precise quality. In resembles of this quality, our project aims to design and development of Parkinson’s gear tester for spur gear to check the Flank Surface. Being compact and portable equipment, it is skilful and precise in testing the gears being manufactured. As most of the required material and equipment could be made easily available by our college and the parts could also be made in our college work-shop. Its price is also significant. This project gives us knowledge, experience, skill and new ideas for manufacturing. It is a working project and having a guarantee of success. This project equipment is useful to enhance the quality of the gear being manufactured and can be made in much lower time. To check the combined tooth error different types of gear testing machines are used. Various machines have its ability to check specified parameters only. The highly precise machine required special installation and space. We required such an arrangement which is strong and rapid one for the purpose of checking gear in machine workshop. This purpose can be solved by using gear test setup. This type of gear test rig in helpful in manufacturing for mass production of gears of a specific gear box. Gear test rig in such arrangement which simplifies the measurement and saves worker time and overall production cost with higher accuracy. It works on the principle that master gear is attached to a fixed vertically oriented shaft and the gear to be tested on another identical shaft. The first gear acts as a master gear and the other gear is checked by using master gear as a reference gear. This result will help in resulting the composite error. The test rig setup can be used in work floor as it requires less space and worker can use it as per need without wasting much time. II. LITERATURE REVIEW R. K. Jain, “Engineering Metrology” Khanna Publishers, twentieth edition [2007], they have presented Parkinson gear tester as an efficient one for checking the flank surfaces of the gear and determine the error significantly. For efficient performance of the gear, this test rig is used they have performed three levels of test experiments considering flank surface. It was observed that this test rig can improve the life of gear.
