Introduction Face gears typically have a straight or skewed tooth line and varying tooth profile in normal cross section at […]
Introduction Gears that are smaller, cheaper, and equipped with more efficient power transmission are the ongoing objective of gear designers. […]
Crossed-axis helical gears (non-enveloping) is a method of transferring motion when using non-parallel axis shafts. These shafts are typically at […]
Weight reduction is of great importance in the design of gearing for aerospace applications. Natural resonance responses of the gear […]
This paper pertains to gearing with non-parallel axes of rotation of the driving and the driven members. Examples of the […]
Industrial gear units are widely used in power transmission systems. They are composed of shafts, gears, rolling elements bearings and […]
To date, grinding, according to the German DIN Standard 8580, is “machining with geometrically undefined cutting edges” while other machining […]
Application of asymmetric tooth gears for aerospace propulsion drives allows for considerably increased power transmission density, potentially increasing their load […]
Plastic gears are growing larger, more precise, more complex in geometry and more powerful. High performance resins and long-fiber compounds […]
Material science is the oldest of all science and engineering disciplines. It is not an overstatement to say that materials […]
Gear root form is an important but often neglected element of the gear. The stress concentration point typically lies in […]
KISSsoft’s contact analysis software is widely used because it calculates a wide variety of characteristics of interest for gears that […]
Many dimensions of the gears and the toothing are determined that have significant influence on load capacity and noise excitation. […]
Bevel gears have been made for over 50 years. There have been several incremental improvements to the initial methods, but […]
Savvy gear manufacturers not only look at new machines and cutting tools but also focus on and invest in their […]
Many shops increasingly incorporate full 5-axis multi-tasking machine tool technology because it allows them to handle any kind of part […]
In the depths of the recession that started in 2008, there were a lot of questions surrounding Gear Expo 2009. […]
In Part IV, Macro Design was discussed and a corrugated web was presented. The idea of the corrugated web came […]
This paper describes the work performed to reduce first order gear mesh vibration, which was the root cause of an […]
The most common definition of Cpk and Ppk is this: Cpk is the short-term capability of a process, and Ppk […]
