KISSsys Gearbox Design and Analysis - Basics
KISSsys is a powerful tool to model and analyze entire transmission groups. The KISSsys training consists of 3 individual classes that are built on each other. The basic training introduces KISSsys and the modeling of gearboxes with single and coaxial shafts using different modeling techniques.
Objectives:
Participants will learn how to create single shaft models and how to handle models with coaxial shafts. In addition, special kinematic conditions, like a powersplit, will be looked at and calculated.
