An Idler gear is a mechanical component found in gear systems. It acts as an intermediary between a driving gear and a driven gear, transmitting rotational motion and torque between them. If the driving gear rotates clockwise, the idler gear will rotate in the opposite directionAttributes: • Good strength, durability, and wear resistance.• Smooth power transmission.Applications:An Idler Gear is used to change the direction of rotation or alter the gear ratio between the driving and driven gears. It does not affect the speed or torque transmitted but rather serves as a mechanical link in the gear train.
