Interesting German Site for Gears and Motors

This site has been mentioned on the Scalefour Forum and I thought it may be of interest here.  Lots of interesting ideas for motors, gears etc.  I'm sure some of them would make useful ingredients for kit and scratch built chassis etc.

Look in the 1:87 modelling section for an extensive overview of the motors etc..

This site has been mentioned often on various threads on the Radio Control section. Don't know how Brexit might affect getting stuff from them. 

 

Does Brexit affect it? They're changing the same for shipping to UK as shipping to France.

They say   "We manufacture your spur gear wheel within a few working days."   Nice change to the UK attitude of dunno mate, next year sometime June, November, depends see.

Does anyone know if there are UK sites that do these kind of smaller metric gears? Want to experiment with axle hung motors using micro motors and these mod 0.3 gears look perfect for what I want.

The website in posted the link has some good gears. I’ll post some pics shortly of the gearboxes I got. Axle hung gears 100% possible from 14-90 to 1 ratio.

As promised here are some pictures of the 90-1 and 56-1 gearboxes 

 

90-1 has a worm drive and a milled brass gearbox casing. All shafts 1mm.

56-1 all pinion gears. 1mm shafts. The double gears come as individual gears that you press together (they sell these seperately). Interference fit.

The larger tooth gears (20-30t) can all be reamed to take a 2mm axle.

I'll use the 56-1 to test for a motor bogie. I will use some exactoscale parallel bushes to sleeve the 1mm axles as I will be using this gearbox as the test mule. I'm thinking custom box perhaps without the massive ratio so that the shaft will be bushed to take a 2mm axle.
