Double Spur Gears: Engineered Excellence by FMP Company for Italy and Beyond
As a leading Double Spur Gear manufacturer based in Italy, FMP Company is proud to deliver high-quality gear solutions to industries worldwide, including key Italian markets such as Milan, Venice, Florence, and Bologna. Specializing in a wide range of Double Spur Gears—including plastic Double Spur Gears—we combine precision engineering with customization capabilities to meet your unique needs.
What Are Double Spur Gears?
Double Spur Gears, often referred to as straight-cut gears, are the simplest and most widely recognized type of gear. Designed to transmit motion and power between two parallel shafts, they feature straight teeth that mesh seamlessly. When two Double Spur Gears engage, the gear with more teeth is known as the “gear,” while the one with fewer teeth is called the “pinion.”
While their straightforward design makes them easy to visualize and implement, Double Spur Gears have a notable drawback: they can generate noise due to the collision of teeth during meshing. Despite this, their efficiency and versatility make them a staple in mechanical systems across industries.
At FMP Company, we produce Double Spur Gears adhering to international standards, with the “module” as the common unit of size (per ISO guidelines) and a typical pressure angle of 20 degrees. Our gears often feature an involute tooth profile, widely used in commercial machinery for optimal performance.
Key Functions of Double Spur Gears
Double Spur Gears are integral to mechanical systems, offering several critical functions:
- Speed Adjustment: They enable gear reduction to decrease speed and increase torque, or conversely, increase speed for specific applications.
- Force Amplification: A small, fast-spinning motor paired with gear reduction can deliver substantial torque, making Double Spur Gears ideal for motorized equipment.
- Direction Change: When two gears mesh, the second rotates in the opposite direction. Specialized designs, such as bevel gears in differentials, can redirect power through angles (e.g., 90 degrees).
These capabilities make Double Spur Gears essential for a variety of applications, from industrial machinery to consumer devices.

FMP Company’s Manufacturing Expertise
At FMP Company, we employ cutting-edge techniques to produce Double Spur Gears tailored to your requirements. Our primary method involves gear cutting, utilizing advanced tools like gear hobbing machines and CNC machining. For applications where extreme precision or hardness isn’t critical, our process includes:
- Cutting round rod material
- Turning blanks on a lathe
- Tooth cutting via hobbing
- Deburring for a smooth finish
- Adding set screw holes or keyways as needed
Our machining capabilities extend beyond cutting to include CNC machining, spline creation, thread rolling, centerless grinding, boring, drilling, milling, turning, broaching, tapping, and wire EDM.
To enhance durability, our Double Spur Gears undergo integral quenching and tempering, ensuring high strength and resistance to deformation under heavy loads. Additionally, high-frequency quenching boosts tooth hardness and wear resistance, delivering long-lasting performance.
Customization: Tailored Double Spur Gears for Your Needs
FMP Company excels in designing and manufacturing custom Double Spur Gears, including plastic Double Spur Gears, to match your specifications. Whether you require a specific module, pressure angle, tooth count, or material, our engineers are equipped to deliver.
