Military tracked vehicles demand a very compact transmission to meet mobility requirements. A compact transmission with low operating noise and vibration is desirable in military tracked vehicles to reduce weight and improve power to weight ratio. It...

Minimizing gear losses caused by churning, windage and mesh friction is important if plant operating costs and environmental impact are to be minimized. The paper concentrates on mesh friction losses and associated scuffing risk. Itdescribesthepreliminaryresultsfrom using avalidated...

Profile corrections on gears are a commonly used method to reduce transmission error, contact shock, and scoring risk. Thereare differenttypes ofprofile corrections. Itis aknown fact, thatthe typeofprofilecorrection used will have a strong influence on the resulting transmission...

Beveloid gears are used to accommodate a small shaft angle. The manufacturing technology used for beveloid gearing is a special set up of cylindrical gear cutting and grinding machines. A new development, the so called Hypoloid gearing...

Several innovations have been introduced to the gear manufacturing industry in the last years. In the case of gear hobbing, the dry cutting technology and the ability to do it with powder--metallurgical HSS--materials might be two of...

Modern gear boxes are characterized by high torque load demands, low running noise, and compact design. In order to fulfill these demands, profile and lead modifications are being applied more and more. The main reason for the...

A trial test of the calibration procedures outlined in ISO 1 8653, Gears -- Evaluation of Instruments for the MeasurementofIndividualGears showthatthe results are reasonable, butaminorchange to the uncertainty formula is recommended. Gear measuring machine calibration methods are...

The paper initially defines bias error (“the twisted tooth phoneme”). Using illustrations we explain that bias error is a by product ofapplying conventional radial crowning methods to produced crowned leads on helical gears. The methods considered are...

No matter how well gears are designed and manufactured, gear corrosion can occur that may easily result in catastrophic failure. Since corrosion is sporadic and a rare event and often difficult to observe in the root fillet...

Over the past years wind power energy is gaining higher importance to reduce CO 2 emissions and thus counteract global warming. The development of wind power engines is driven by increased performance which requires largerwind turbines and...
