Plastic Gear Design

Plastic Gear Design 

Prototyping support is one of the most crucial aspects of initial gear design since it optimizes the product for large-volume manufacturing. Through design prototyping, Winzeler Gear is able to do what we do best: collaborate with partners and customers to focus on optimization and the manufacturability of high-quality gears. 

Some gears can be prototyped with conventional gear machining using cast plastic bar stock, but more complex gears may have to be molded using our modular prototype tooling capabilities. Winzeler Gear uses prototyping as a design optimization step which allows testing alternate material, reducing risk of thinner wall sections, and discovering other cost-saving opportunities for production.   

Our ideal injection molding application starts with the gear product design! Take the first step today with the experts at Winzeler Gear. Our Collective Intelligence approach for plastic gear design and manufacturing always results in a superior product for our customers.
