GWJ Technology GmbH, calculation specialist from Braunschweig, introduces a new version of its calculation environment for gear systems, SystemManager, as an extension of its well-known solutions eAssistant as web solution and TBK as classic desktop application.
The SystemManager is a powerful and easy-to-use extension of the GWJ solutions eAssistant and TBK for individual machine elements, such as shafts, bearings, connections, and various gear types, for the design and optimization of gearbox systems, such as multi-stage gearboxes, power-split, and manual gearboxes, etc. In the latest version of the SystemManager, template files or examples with subdirectories can be structured and also created by the user.
Result graphics are no longer only available for individual load elements of a load spectrum. It is now also possible to display all load spectrum elements in one graphic. This is advantageous, for example, for evaluating flank modifications by means of the line load curve over the facewidth.
An axial offset for the gear force can be defined in case the gears are considered as point loads. This axial offset can also be varied within the load spectrum. An axial offset can be defined for masses and imbalances; in this case the distance between the center of mass and the force element. This also allows a center of mass outside of the shaft geometry.
For the transfer to the individual calculations from the TBK or eAssistant, the gear data for different calculations is now saved for the gear element and thus kept consistent. When using 3D elastic components, positioning has been made easier and the mesh can be split into several subdomains, e.g. to define different material properties.
Focusing on mechanical engineering, GWJ Technology stands for high-quality products and professional software development for mechanical engineering to support engineers and designers in their daily work. The GWJ product range of innovative calculation software is wide — from standard software for classical machine elements with 3D CAD integration modules to the determination of whole systems up to a complex special software for 5-axis milling of gears.
