Gear Trains Kit (Product Code: SLE/ETP/23) is an engineering science teaching kit of spur, bevel and worm gears used to investigate how different gear sets transmit motion in school, polytechnic and college engineering labs. Lecturers use it to introduce gear ratio, efficiency, mechanical advantage and velocity ratio, and its double-toothed spur gears allow compound gear train experiments. The kit is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, as part of its engineering lab equipment range.

In a mechanics practical, students mesh one gear pair at a time, turn the input by hand and count the turns of the output to work out the velocity ratio. Comparing the effort applied with the load moved then shows mechanical advantage, and the gap between ideal and measured results explains why efficiency is always below one hundred percent.
The bevel gear shows how a drive can be turned through an angle, while the worm drive demonstrates a large speed reduction in a single stage. Joining the double-toothed spur gears into a compound train lets the class see how individual ratios multiply. A chalk or marker spot on one tooth of each gear makes counting turns much easier. As mechanics lab equipment, the kit links textbook formulas to the gearboxes and hand tools students already know.
ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which produces the Gear Trains Kit as the original equipment manufacturer at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Because the kit is made and assembled there rather than sourced from a trader, schools, polytechnics, engineering colleges, dealers and importers receive it factory-direct. Replacement gears and repeat orders are handled by the manufacturer itself — ask us about the parts you need. Read more on the ScienceLab company profile.

What gears are included in the Gear Trains Kit?
The Gear Trains Kit includes spur gears, a bevel gear and a worm drive. Its spur gears carry two sets of teeth on the same shaft, so students can build compound gear trains as well as simple gear pairs and compare how each arrangement behaves.
Which engineering terms does the Gear Trains Kit teach?
The Gear Trains Kit introduces gear ratio, efficiency, mechanical advantage and velocity ratio. Students test each gear set, record what they observe and compare the characteristics, linking theory to gear boxes, hand tools and clockwork mechanisms.
Who manufactures the Gear Trains Kit?
The Gear Trains Kit is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) as the OEM at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, so institutions, dealers and importers buy it directly from the maker.
Which courses can use the Gear Trains Kit?
The Gear Trains Kit suits any course that introduces gear ratio and mechanical advantage, from senior school technology and physics to diploma and engineering mechanics practicals. The teacher or lecturer decides how deep the calculations go for each group.
How should the Gear Trains Kit be looked after?
Keep the Gear Trains Kit clean and dry, store the gears in a tray between lessons and check the teeth for chips before each practical. Dust and grit add friction and distort efficiency results. For replacement parts, ask ScienceLab.
