Epicyclic Gear Train and Holding Torque Apparatus

The Epicyclic Gear Train and Holding Torque Apparatus is a precision-engineered educational tool designed to demonstrate the working principles of an epicyclic (planetary) gear system. Widely used in automotive and industrial applications, this setup enables students and researchers to study torque transmission, gear ratios, and holding torque under various configurations. Engineered with robust materials and high accuracy, this apparatus provides a hands-on learning experience that bridges theoretical knowledge and practical understanding of complex gear mechanisms. Key Features: Complete Epicyclic Gear Setup: Demonstrates sun gear, planet gear, and ring gear interactions in real-time. Torque Measurement: Enables direct observation and measurement of input, output, and holding torque. Variable Configuration: Allows different gear holding conditions (sun, ring, or arm fixed) to study resulting output speeds and torques.
