Gear roll testers are precision testing machines that are largely used for testing internal or external gears.

Salient Features of Roll Tester

Gear roll testers have many different features, which make them suitable for testing different types of gears. Some of its important features are:

• Roll testers are have a sturdy constructions and are designed using graded cast iron castings for durability.
• They are provided with various characteristics to test different types of gears like bore type, spur and helical gear, integrated shaft gears, cluster gears, etc.
• These equipment feature sensitive floating carriage mechanism, loading and unloading time, low setting, and direct reading dial gauges that are ideal for testing various types of gears and gear diameters.
• Gear roll testers for testing cluster gears possess features like bell crank type machines, cluster roll testing against all mating gears at a time, reduced loading, unloading, setting times, etc.
• Roll testers are sometimes combined with a dual spindle device where the test gear is meshed or run against a master gear.
