Re: Were we ever limited on the amounts of non-CIM motor

How inefficient are bevel gears? I've looked it up and I keep getting a pretty big range (around 1-45% efficiency loss typically). What makes them inefficient? is it the quality of workmanship (i.e. how well they fit together) or is it just a flaw of the design and cannot be circumvented? I'm no mechanical engineer but it seems to me that if a pair of bevel gears a custom machined so that the fit together near perfectly then there should be very little losses. If anyone can explain this it would be greatly appreciated.
