Background:
30 + years of experience in AUTOMOTIVE ACTUATOR gear design and analysis, and GENERAL MECHANISM design Extensive experience in HIGH RATIO plastic & metal WORM GEARING, as well as SPUR and HELICAL gearing 27 years of experience in developing gear design, gear analysis, and gear utility PC SOFTWARE PROGRAMS (training available with any software purchase) 24 years of CAD GEARING and GENERAL MECHANISM design experience Extensive experience in issues related to part specifications, tolerance analysis, prototyping, production, quality, testing and troubleshooting
Services available to support your gear design/analysis projects:
DESIGN/ANALYSIS TECHNIQUES to optimize the strength, size and quietness of NEW and EXISTING gearing Provide complete GEAR SPECS and AutoCAD GEAR PROFILE LAYOUTS for DETAIL DRAWINGS and SOLID MODELS Recommend the appropriate GEAR INSPECTION techniques to assure the QUALITY of your gearing ANALYZE COMPETITIVE GEARING and compare analysis results to existing, or proposed gearing Provide insight into how today’s PLASTIC GEARING is ROBUST enough to handle many surprisingly TOUGH APPLICATIONS, with a high potential for COST, WEIGHT and QUIETNESS improvements
For companies with little or no in-house gear design expertise, I have a 4-hour “Basics of Gear Design” presentation available for groups of 10-12. (If interested, please contact me for a copy of the presentation agenda)
