A study of vegetale oils performance as a helical gear lubricant

Gears are used as power transmission dates back several hundred years. Before the introduction of iron and steel as the material that makes them, gears consisted of circular wooden wheels with wooden pegs fastened to the rims to serve as teeth. The power that used to operate these mechanisms were pr...
