Numeric ID 200222
Value Type PMTechValue

The angle between the axes of the bevel gear and bevel pinion.

The shaft angle is part of the initial data set for calculating the pitch cone parameters in accordance with ISO 23509.

The axes of the bevel gear stage include the shaft angle Σ: 0°< Σ < 180°. For non-axially offset bevel gears, the shaft angle corresponds to the sum of the cone angles.

Shaft angle less than 90°
Shaft angle equal to 90°
Shaft angle greater than 90°
