Abstract: - A gear or"gear wheel" is a part of a spinning machine with cut teeth or cogsthat mesh with another toothed part to transmit electricity. Two or moretandem-operated gears are called a transmission and via a gear ratio, createmechanical advantages and can therefore be considered a simple machine. In thisproject report on stress analysis of spur gears, gears are mainly used in themechanical sector for power transmission. In this project, spur gear made ofcast iron is regarded as the traditional model. The traditional model isoptimized and the study is done with high modulus content from carbon fiber.Boundary constraints are established and the overall model deformation ismeasured and the results are tabulated.
