Spur gears are the simplest type of gear, with straight teeth parallel to the axis of rotation. They are easy to manufacture and are widely used for transmitting motion and power between parallel shafts.
Function:
Transmit rotary motion and torque between two parallel shafts efficiently with minimal energy loss.
Applications:
Used in clocks, conveyors, gear pumps, washing machines, and industrial machinery where noise is not a major concern.
