The “Groups box,” a new function of KISSsoft Release 03/2017, lists a selection of predefined gear stages. These gear stages can be added to the model tree structure and combined in any way you like. Gear stages such as a Ravigneaux set or a Wolfrom set are also available to make it easier to model complex wind-turbine gearboxes or shifting transmissions. You can also define your own gear stages and save them in the software. This saves a great deal of valuable time when modeling complex drive systems.
The way in which the model tree structure is handled in KISSsys also has been improved so changes (deletions, renamings, etc.) can be performed at a later point in time without any restriction (examples).
On November 28-29, 2017, KISSsoft will hold a training course for KISSsys users on Planetary Stage Gearboxes. Sign up here.
