Gear Drive Trainer MT-30-05-06

Description

INTRODUCTION

 

Comprehensive package of mechanical training system MT-5000 combines the best features of five proven EDU-LABS mechanical training systems MT-10 Series, MT-20 Series, MT-30 Series, MT-40 Series and MT-50 Series in one hands-on workstation. The system allows the student to progress through the full range of common mechanical skills using one comprehensive training system.

 

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

 

• This versatile assembly allows for convenient hands-on training in gear identification, installation, alignment, and troubleshooting.
• The device includes a diverse selection of industrial-quality gears, shafts, and bearings, allowing for use in a variety of configurations.
• The welded aluminum and CNC machined gear box provides for mounting and shimming of tapered roller bearings using several different bearing housing types.
• Useful in the classroom or training lab, this heavy-duty device will improve maintenance skills, as well as increase the understanding of precision gearing.

 

FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS

 

• 7-Gauge, formed-steel baseplate with provision for tabletop mounting.
• Welded aluminum gear box, allowing for installation of all supplied gear sets.
• Seven custom bearing housings allowing for installation and shimming (internal and external) of tapered roller bearing sets.
