Abstract: This study focuses on the design and structural analysis of helical gears with varying helix angles to investigate their influence on mechanical performance. By designing helical gears with different helix angles and analyzing them under identical loading and boundary conditions, the study aims to evaluate changes in bending stress, contact stress, deformation, and axial force. The results of this investigation will help identify optimal helix angle ranges that enhance gear strength and longevity while minimizing undesirable effects such as excessive axial loads and material failure. The findings of this study are expected to contribute to improved gear design practices by providing insights into the relationship between helix angle variation and structural performance. Such insights are valuable for engineers and designers seeking to develop efficient, durable, and high-performance gear systems for modern mechanical applications.
