Abstract Scope |
In recent years, there has been significant development in materials, material systems and materials processing for applications in contactless gears. In minimizing material wear and tear due to minimal or zero friction, gearless systems require no lubrication, offer extended shelf-life and exhibit minimal noise. An overview of materials that can be utilized in gearless systems is presented. Various examples and case studies of the use of contactless gears in mechanical and industrial systems as well as in devices for energy conversion are described. Growth opportunities of this evolving technology are summarized. |
