Dott. Ing. Marco Morini graduated in Mechanical Engineering from the Politecnico di Torino in 1977.
From 1977 to 2003, he first served as Technical Director and later as General Manager in an industrial group specializing in the development and production of technical components in plastic and metal, aimed at leading Italian and European automotive manufacturers and the largest Italian IT company.
Since 2004, he has been dedicated to consulting for the development of new mechanical components, from design to production. The sectors in which he has worked include:
- Transport (cars, motorcycles)
- Gardening machinery
- Electromechanical products for civilian use
- Medical industry
- Professional power tools
A topic to which he has devoted much attention is gears, mainly in thermoplastic resins, but also in steel. To effectively address the design of plastic gear wheels capable of transmitting relatively high power, he developed a series of original programs for calculating involute teeth. Thanks to continuous theoretical and experimental verification of these programs, he has been able to design gears intended for very demanding applications, such as inside combustion engines for operating oil pumps, water pumps, balancer shafts, and in professional tools where high power resistance and noise reduction are required, even when the gears rotate at speeds exceeding 30,000 rpm.
The types of gears he has developed include spur gears, bevel gears, worm gears, simple planetary gear trains, and compound planetary gear trains.
