Course Details
• Gear Anatomy and Terminology: Understanding the different parts of a gear and their functions, including teeth, pitch, diameters, and backlash.
• Types of Gears: Exploring the various types of gears, such as spur, helical, bevel, worm, and herringbone gears, and their unique characteristics.
• Gear Design Principles: Learning fundamental gear design principles, such as gear ratio, center distance, and profile shift, and how they impact gear performance metrics.
• Involute Profile and Tooth Contact Analysis: Examining the involute profile and its relationship to tooth contact, including the impact on gear noise, load distribution, and durability.
• Gear Rating Standards: Understanding gear rating standards, such as AGMA, ISO, and DIN, and how to apply them to gear design and performance analysis.
• Gear Measurement Techniques: Learning gear measurement techniques, including the use of coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), gear inspection machines, and optical methods.
• Gear Microgeometry and Surface Roughness: Exploring the impact of gear microgeometry and surface roughness on gear performance metrics, including noise, vibration, and wear.
• Gear Failure Analysis: Understanding the causes of gear failure, including overloading, fatigue, wear, and corrosion, and how to prevent them.
• Gear Transmission Error Analysis: Examining transmission error, its impact on gear performance metrics, and how to measure and analyze it.
• Gear Optimization Techniques: Learning optimization techniques, such as finite element analysis (FEA), computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and neural networks, to improve gear performance and durability.
