Eccentric Oval Wheel

Eccentric Oval Wheel

Our Powder Metallurgy Oval Eccentric Wheels feature an eccentric oval profile with an integrated hub, providing controlled movement and positioning in mechanical mechanisms.

The eccentric geometry creates an offset between the rotational axis and the outer profile. During rotation, the changing radial distance can be used to generate controlled displacement, positioning or adjustment movement.

Key Features

• Oval eccentric profile for controlled mechanical movement
• Integrated hub design for secure shaft connection
• Compact one-piece construction
• Powder metallurgy manufacturing
• Consistent dimensions for repeatable assembly
• Suitable for positioning and adjustment mechanisms
• Small integrated locating feature for component positioning
• Custom eccentric offsets and profiles available

Applications

Oval eccentric wheels are suitable for mechanical adjustment mechanisms, power tools, automation equipment, actuators, positioning systems and motion-control assemblies where controlled eccentric movement is required.

Powder Metallurgy Advantages

Powder metallurgy is well suited to manufacturing eccentric components with integrated hubs and non-standard profiles. The process offers:

• Efficient material utilization
• Near-net-shape manufacturing
• Consistent part-to-part dimensions
• Reduced machining requirements
• Cost-effective production for medium and high-volume applications
• Ability to integrate multiple geometric features into one component

Custom Manufacturing

We can manufacture eccentric wheels according to customer drawings or specifications, including:

• Outer profile
• Major and minor dimensions
• Eccentric offset
• Bore diameter
• Hub diameter
• Hub length
• Overall thickness
• Locating feature dimensions
• Material
• Density and mechanical properties
• Surface treatment

Custom eccentric profiles, dimensions and hub configurations are available for OEM applications.
