Bevel gear testing machine

Gleason Model 61

The No. 61 Angular Hypoid Tester is designed to test large bevel and hypoid gears up to 90" diameter and with shaft angles from 0 - 135 degrees. Spur, helical and internal gears can also be accommodated.

The drive or pinion spindle can be rotated in either direction at a recommended spindle speed of 600 RPM. It is mounted in a head which is vertically adjustable on a column, so that the spindle can be offset either above or below the center line of the gear spindle for testing hypoid gears. The pinion head column is adjustable angularly in a horizontal plane to permit testing of gears of any shaft angle from 0 - 135 degrees.
