Cylindrical Gear Design, Analysis and Optimization by using KISSsoft
The objective of the 3-day advanced training is to understand the fundamental theories for cylindrical gear design and analysis and to learn the application usages of KISSsoft. Participants will gain knowledge on how to interpret the gear rating, analyze reports and apply the software to improve gear design from the conceptual to the final design phase.
Objectives:
Participants will learn how to handle the geometric definitions and properties, manufacturing, and inspection techniques of cylindrical gears. It continues with strengths rating for the analysis of various gear failure modes. Basic knowledge on gear contact analysis will be provided and various strategies will be explored using the KISSsoft sizing functionalities and applying them on gear design and optimization.
