Re: Gearbox Mesh Question
I also design with a .002" added for backlash. We also run our GB's dry for a good 15 minutes before applying lithium greese. I have discussed the same thing with a lot of other people, and .002" seems to be the happy spot for gear meshing. To date we havnt had any problems with excessive wearing or excessive friction in our gearboxes.
