Manufacturing for the Nuclear Industry
How our experience is being applied
Mini Gears entered the Nuclear sector in 2014 supplying gear related products. Our knowledge on gear manufacture and our involvement with the development and improvement on all types of gear applications since 1966, together with huge investment in hi-tech machinery and testing equipment, has enabled Mini Gears to move into these specialist areas. We now offer advice to Tier 1 suppliers who supply parts into Nuclear facilities directly.
Gears are 100% inspected on our Gleason Gear Inspection Systems
Full traceability for every component we manufacture for the Nuclear Industry
Gear Grinding for the manufacture of high precision gears
Mini Gears applies 100% inspection on all Nuclear products using full CNC Gear Inspection equipment – backed up with documentation to support the process as full traceability is required.
Mini Gears uses CNC CMM inspection equipment for machined parts. Gear inspection is done on the Gleason 350 GMS Analytical Gear Inspection System and the Gleason-Pfauter Profile Grinding Machine P600/800G which has on-board gear inspection. This offers measurements of gear accuracy and include graphs of lead profile and involute form with tooth to tooth and total composite error.
The ability to grind and inspect to such high standards has helped Mini Gears to reduce noise and improve products for customers who require quieter units in areas where noise is an issue, also to improve the roll of gears where smoother applications are required.
Components we manufacture to the Nuclear Industry include:
