POM \u2014 “Plastic Steel”: Key Properties for Star Wheels<\/h2>\n

\"MC<\/p>\n

POM’s “plastic steel” nickname reflects its exceptional mechanical property combination for a thermoplastic material. These properties make it the standard material for high-precision, high-wear-resistance star wheels in transmission and conveyor applications:<\/p>\n

\n
\n

High Rigidity \u2014 Tensile Elastic Modulus<\/h3>\n

POM has the highest tensile elastic modulus (stiffness) of any standard engineering thermoplastic \u2014 2,500\u20133,200 MPa, vs 1,000\u20131,500 MPa for nylon at dry conditions. This rigidity means POM star wheels deflect minimally under tooth contact load \u2014 maintaining the tooth profile geometry under working loads. In precision transmission star wheels where the tooth profile directly determines the motion transmission accuracy (cam follower star wheels, bottle conveyor star wheels), POM’s high stiffness is critical for maintaining positional accuracy throughout the service life of the wheel.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Wear Resistance and Low Friction<\/h3>\n

POM has excellent wear resistance and a low friction coefficient (\u03bc \u2248 0.10 against steel, dry) \u2014 the lowest of any thermoplastic except PTFE and UHMW-PE. This combination of low friction and good wear resistance makes POM star wheels self-lubricating in light-to-medium duty applications \u2014 the POM surface provides adequate tribological performance against mating metal or plastic surfaces without grease or oil. For automotive transmission star wheels (replacing brass half-shaft and planetary gears), POM’s wear resistance extends service life vs the brass components it replaces, reducing maintenance intervals and component replacement cost.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Dimensional Stability \u2014 Low Water Absorption<\/h3>\n

POM absorbs only 0.17\u20130.20% water at 23\u00b0C \u2014 among the lowest of engineering thermoplastics. This near-zero hygroscopic growth means POM star wheel tooth profiles remain accurate even in wet or humid environments (food processing, agricultural machinery, outdoor conveyors). In contrast, nylon absorbs 2\u20133% water, causing significant tooth profile growth that changes the meshing geometry and increases backlash \u2014 a problem that does not occur with POM star wheels. Dimensional stability also makes POM star wheels suitable for precision applications where tooth clearance is controlled to \u00b10.05 mm or tighter.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Chemical Stability<\/h3>\n

POM is resistant to most organic solvents, oils, greases, petrol, and hydraulic fluids \u2014 and to dilute acids and alkalis in the normal concentration range for industrial use. This chemical resistance makes POM star wheels suitable for automotive transmission environments (gear oil, ATF, petrol), agricultural machinery (fertilisers, herbicides, pesticides diluted for field use), and food processing (cleaning agents, food acids). POM is not suitable for concentrated strong mineral acids (sulphuric, hydrochloric, nitric) or phenols \u2014 Korea Ever-Power confirms chemical compatibility for specific applications.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

High Heat Resistance for a Thermoplastic<\/h3>\n

POM maintains good mechanical properties up to 90\u00b0C continuous service \u2014 the highest operating temperature of standard commodity engineering thermoplastics. At 90\u00b0C, POM retains approximately 60% of its room-temperature tensile strength \u2014 adequate for light transmission loads in automotive interior and industrial equipment applications where elevated temperatures are encountered. For applications above 90\u00b0C, Korea Ever-Power offers PPA or PEEK star wheel alternatives with higher heat resistance.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Electrical Properties \u2014 Electronic Applications<\/h3>\n

POM has low power consumption (low dielectric loss factor), high dielectric strength, high insulation resistance, and high arc resistance \u2014 making POM star wheels suitable for electrical and electronic drive components where metallic parts would create short-circuit risks. In battery-powered devices, the low dielectric loss of POM gears avoids energy loss through the gear material itself under alternating mechanical stress \u2014 a minor but real advantage for maximum battery efficiency in precision electronic instruments.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n

Automotive \u2014 Replacing Brass and Metal<\/h3>\n

POM star wheels replacing brass half-shaft star gears and planetary gears in automotive differential and transmission mechanisms. POM’s mechanical strength exceeds that of brass (tensile strength ~65 MPa for POM vs ~310 MPa for brass \u2014 but at lower weight and cost, and with sufficient strength for the specific loading). Korea Ever-Power’s automotive POM star wheels save copper material cost, improve service life vs brass in corrosive environments, and reduce transmission weight \u2014 all commercially valued improvements in automotive driveline design.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
<\/div>\n

Conveyor and Packaging Star Wheels<\/h3>\n

POM star wheels (also called bottle-sorting star wheels, timing star wheels, or conveyor indexing wheels) in beverage bottling lines, pharmaceutical tablet packaging machines, and food container handling systems. The star wheel’s pointed profile engages each container or bottle at a specific angular position, controlling the spacing and orientation of products for downstream processing. POM’s dimensional stability ensures consistent container spacing throughout the star wheel’s service life.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\u26a1<\/div>\n

Electrical and Electronic Industry<\/h3>\n

POM star wheels and precision gears in electrical meters (energy metering star wheel mechanisms), electronic circuit testers, transformer tap-changer mechanisms, and electrical switchgear position indicators. POM’s combination of dimensional precision, wear resistance, and excellent electrical properties (high insulation resistance, high arc resistance) makes it the preferred plastic for electrical transmission components where metallic parts would create leakage or short-circuit risks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
<\/div>\n

Agricultural Machinery<\/h3>\n

POM star wheels in hand sprayer parts, planter joints, transport parts, milking machine drives, irrigation housing valve stars, water bushings, and seeder disc mechanisms. Agricultural POM components must withstand outdoor UV exposure, temperature cycling, soil particle abrasion, and repeated exposure to diluted agricultural chemicals \u2014 POM’s outdoor stability and chemical resistance suit these demanding conditions. The self-lubricating property eliminates the grease maintenance that metal agricultural components require.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
<\/div>\n

Medical Equipment<\/h3>\n

POM star wheels and transmission gears in diagnostic laboratory equipment, infusion pump drives, and analytical instrument positioning mechanisms. FDA-listed POM is biocompatible for indirect food\/drug contact applications; the zero-lubrication operation eliminates contamination risk in sterile environments; and POM’s dimensional precision maintains accurate dosing or sample positioning over the medical device’s rated service life.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
<\/div>\n

Precision Instruments<\/h3>\n

POM star wheels and cam follower gears in precision metering instruments, optical instrument focus mechanisms, laboratory pipette dispensers, and scientific instrument positioning drives. POM’s combination of high rigidity, dimensional stability, low wear, and self-lubrication meets the demanding precision requirements of scientific instruments where gear backlash must be maintained within \u00b10.01 mm over the instrument’s 10-year service life.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n
\n
\n

What is the difference between POM, Delrin, Acetal, and Polyacetal \u2014 are they all the same material?<\/p>\n

Yes \u2014 POM, Delrin, Acetal, and Polyacetal all refer to the same material class (polyoxymethylene \u2014 a highly crystalline thermoplastic). Delrin is DuPont’s trade name for POM homopolymer (POM-H); Acetal and Polyacetal are generic names; POM is the ISO abbreviation. There are two grades: POM-H (homopolymer \u2014 slightly higher strength and melting point) and POM-C (copolymer \u2014 slightly better chemical resistance and lower thermal degradation during processing). Korea Ever-Power uses POM-C natural as the standard grade for precision star wheels, and POM-H (Delrin 500P) for high-strength gear applications where maximum mechanical properties are required.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Can Korea Ever-Power make POM star wheels from customer artwork or sample without a full drawing?<\/p>\n

Yes \u2014 Korea Ever-Power accepts customer artwork (2D drawing, 3D CAD file, or scan) or physical sample as the basis for producing custom POM star wheels. If only a sample is provided, Korea Ever-Power measures all dimensions (overall diameter, tooth profile, tooth count, bore, keyway, face width) and prepares a dimensioned drawing for customer approval before the mould design begins. This reverse-engineering service ensures the new POM star wheel matches the original part dimensions exactly. 30-day lead time from drawing approval to first injection moulded samples.
