1. Small-module Tooth Profile DesignThe spur gear slew drive adopts an optimized small-module tooth profile design. Compared with traditional large-module gears, small-module gears feature smaller tooth pitches and a greater number of teeth, enabling tighter meshing during transmission and minimizing transmission backlash to an extremely narrow range. This structural design enhances the precision of the transmission system, allowing for accurate power transmission to ensure the printing nozzle moves smoothly along the preset path, and effectively avoiding printing deviations caused by transmission backlash.

2. Precision Gear Grinding ProcessBuilding on the small-module design, the spur gear slew drive is manufactured with a gear grinding process, where the gear surfaces are finely polished using professional gear grinding equipment. This process significantly improves gear surface finish and tooth profile accuracy, resulting in higher meshing overlap ratio and smoother transmission performance. The spur gear slew drive processed by gear grinding achieves a unidirectional positioning accuracy of 0.04°, which can precisely control the moving track of the printing nozzle and ensure uniform printing layer thickness.

3. In the future, the spur gear slew drive will continue to support the development of construction 3D printing technology toward higher precision, higher efficiency and larger-scale applications, driving the intelligent transformation of the construction industry.
