TEAC VRDS CD T1 gear broken - Page 14

radkosechko · 13th February 2013, 12:28 PM

Hello all!

Aluminum, or brass gears are an option, BUT think about the other gears that these two make contact with. The plastic will wear off times faster than compared to the all plastic set-up. Apart from that there will be an added noise, which is not that important for the drawer gear, but still. I was about to make brass ones for my VRDS, but then decided to buy original plastic ones.

The plastic of the gears, in my opinion ages due to the higher ambient temperature within the case of each unit, and besides they are all made of regular poliamide, so the idea is for them to actually get broken and we seek out and buy spare ones at the end of the day.

Had they been injection-molded from glass microfiber poliamide, that would have been a completely different story.

Hope that helps

well, I had to replace the plastic gear which was broken. I realised that the transfer of force is quite high on both gears due to the difference in circumverences of the white and the black big gear which controls the drawer. A few of the dents on the white plastic gear were broken. So I decided to design a copy of the white gear in aluminum. In fact I am quite happy with it. I cannot detect an increase in the noise when the drawer moves. Wrt the wear out, I use the aluminum gear extensively for a year or so w/o pbs.

Hi,
Seems like this topic is correct for my question as You all talk about CMK4.

I got a problem with my Wadia 850 as it will not stop the spindle when i press
stop and eject.If i stop the spindle manually by hand CD tray goes out normally.
What is controlling the stop of spindle?
Or if anyone had the same situation like me could help.
Except for this "problem" player is working ok.
