When a job calls for designing nonstandard gearing, you might crunch through the AGMA or ISO calculations or turn to one of several gear-design programs. The KISSsoft 08/2005 package is a better ...

“We invented new types of gears that engage by spinning up fluid rather than interlocking teeth—and we discovered new ...

Gears make the industrial world go ’round. And RIT engineering faculty and doctoral students are working to keep them moving efficiently. Gears transmit the motion necessary to operate the equipment ...

The causes of gear failure are diverse yet preventable—even tooth degradation and lubrication contamination. Following these ...

Gears provide two main functions in motion control systems. In power systems, they match the relatively low-speed, high-torque requirement of the load to the high-speed, low-torque, high-efficiency ...

Design engineers face continuous pressure to enhance product performance while driving down costs. For many devices, converting metal components to plastic is an effective way of achieving both goals.

IGD – Integrated Gear Design – continues growing every day. IGD version 3.7 comprises more than 1.4 million lines of code distributed in 1,321 files. It provides solutions for advanced gear design and ...
