Right Angle Bevel Gearbox

Right angle bevel gearboxes have curved and oblique teeth and are used for high speed and high performance industrial machines. The gears are compact and designed for a noise free operation. Nomenclature of a Bevel gear box is given in this diagram

Before we go on to discuss what is a right angle gear box is all about, it would be worthwhile to know a bit about Bevel gears. A bevel gear is actually made typically in the shape of a cone.
