I too run a Robinson pinion. The quality of the gear profile, (runout, root diameter, involute etc ) would barely be considered agama 5 or 6.
With this being said, gear mesh has to take on a sort of "average" as the runout of the two gears prevent a consistent mesh. When I see a gear that has only a few damaged teeth (as in my latest case) I really think it's a torque transfer issue causing this.
