Global Gear Couplings Market Definition

Power is transmitted by connecting two ends of the shafts and the device which is used to connect these two shafts is known as coupling. These shafts are non-collinear. For example, we generally see the use of couplings in cars for connecting drive shaft that connects the engine and the rear axle of the vehicles. Given the area of application different types of couplings are used. Normally, gear couplings are suitable for transmitting high torques. One can think that gears are not flexible but in the case of gear couplings, they are considered flexible couplings. This type of coupling is comprised of two flexible joints fixed to each shaft and is connected by a third axis called a spindle. Generally, this type of coupling is limited to the precision alignment of 4° to 5°. Gear couplings are classified into two types namely flange sleeves and continuous sleeves.

Global Gear Couplings Market Overview

The gear couplings are mostly utilized in high-speed and torque applications and owing to the increasing utilization of these couplings the demand for gear couplings is upsurging. gear couplings offer various advantages such as torsional stiffness which can handle minor misalignments in shafts and high torque density. Owing to their high torsional rigidity, they are widely being used in high-speed applications such as oil & gas, mining, metal, and heavy machinery industries. Gear couplings can absorb small-scale shocks and dampen the vibrations in high-speed machinery such as centrifugal pumps.

These advantages have led to increased adoption of gear couplings in many industries which in turn has contributed greatly to the growth of the global Gear Couplings Market. Furthermore, industries are adopting curved teeth and continuous-sleeved gear couplings. The curved teeth-type gear couplings give increased protection to the connected shaft against angular as well as parallel misalignment. The gear couplings are highly rigid and offer temperature resistance up to 100ºC which ensures easy installation in harsh environmental conditions. Furthermore, the continuous sleeved gear couplings offer the advantage of the reduction in weight and remove the need for any bolts and flanges that need to be attached. Owing to these reasons, the growth of the Gear Couplings Market across the globe is continually upsurging.

However, the challenge of lubrication and misalignment may restrain the growth of the global Gear Couplings Market. Owing to lack of lubrication, the gear couplings may lead to corrosion and failure which in turn could increase the maintenance and repair cost. However, many industries have started to adopt non-lubricated gear couplings such as gear and chain couplings which require less maintenance compared to lubricated couplings.

Global Gear Couplings Market Segmentation Analysis

The Global Gear Couplings Market is segmented based on Product, Application, and Geography.

Gear Couplings Market, By Product

• Rigid Gear Couplings• Flex Gear Couplings

Based on Product, the market is bifurcated into Rigid Gear Couplings and Flex Gear Couplings. The flexible gear couplings are dominating the Gear Couplings Market. The rigid gear couplings have a limited number of applications compared to flexible rigid coupling. Rigid gear couplings are not able to compensate for shaft misalignment and hence are less preferred compared to flexible gear couplings. Flexible couplings are designed in a such way that they can compensate for various types of load conditions.

Gear Couplings Market, By Application

• Oil and Gas Industry• Power Plants• Mining and Metals Industry• Others

Based on Application, the market is bifurcated into the Oil and Gas Industry, Power Plants, Mining and Metals Industry, and Others. The oil and gas industry accounted for the largest market share and is expected to dominate the market over the forecast period. Owing to increasing utilization of gear couplings in the oil and gas industry is the reason behind the dominance of the oil and industry segment. The gear couplings absorb shock loads during the process of power transmission and due to harsher environmental conditions are expected to drive the global Gear Couplings Market.

Gear Couplings Market, By Geography

• North America• Europe• Asia Pacific• Rest of the world

Based on Regional Analysis, the Global Gear Couplings Market is classified into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Rest of the world. The largest share in the market will be dominated by Europe. The increasing need for power generation in countries such as France, the UK, Germany, and Italy is driving the demand for the adoption of gear couplings. Furthermore, the heavy investments done by these countries in renewable power generation plants are anticipated to bring the wide-scale adoption of a gear coupling. Owing to these factors the European region is anticipated to dominate the market.
