This paper presents an experimental study on spur gears. Gears with and without tungsten-carbide coatings (WC/C) are compared in terms of efficiency, durability and vibration performance. In order to carry out the experiments, a test rig including two electric motors/brakes is described. Gears are designed for this specific experimental campaign, so that the number of teeth, the selected materials and thermochemical treatments are optimal to investigate gear efficiency and durability. The experimental procedure allows for a simultaneous evaluation of efficiency and dynamic transmission error by varying the rotational velocity of the gear pair. An additional investigation has been performed for varying load, so that a complete characterization of the effect of WC/C coating on gear performance is presented.

Abstract
This paper presents an experimental study on spur gears. Gears with and without tungsten-carbide coatings (WC/C) are compared in terms of efficiency, durability and vibration performance. In order to carry out the experiments, a test rig including two electric motors/brakes is described. Gears are designed for this specific experimental campaign, so that the number of teeth, the selected materials and thermochemical treatments are optimal to investigate gear efficiency and durability. The experimental procedure allows for a simultaneous evaluation of efficiency and dynamic transmission error by varying the rotational velocity of the gear pair. An additional investigation has been performed for varying load, so that a complete characterization of the effect of WC/C coating on gear performance is presented.
