The article proposes a method to optimize cylindrical gearbox tolerances by balancing gear noise performance and manufacturing costs using modeling, analysis, and meta-model-based optimization.
A method to calculate pitch cones for hypoid gears using macrogeometry parameters—similar to non-offset bevel gears—while accounting for the added complexity of hypoid offset, tooling, and cutting technology is explored in this paper.
.
This study examines the implementation and experimental validation of state-of-the-art plastic worm gear design methods, focusing on the VDI 2736 guideline as the most comprehensive reference for load-carrying capacity calculations.
.
This paper examines the transition from internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles to electric vehicles (EVs), highlighting the distinct gear design requirements for each and presenting a comparative case study of gearbox configurations in a 14-ton commercial vehicle.
.
This paper will review the development process, current research status, characteristics, functions, and measurement methods of TE. It will analyze the difficulties and core issues existing in the basic theory of TE, clarify the limitations and deficiencies of TE, and explore ways to overcome the shortcomings of TE.
.
The main objective of this study is to perform an experimental evaluation of the structural model of a five-planet first planetary stage from a modern 6MW wind turbine gearbox.
On the surface, it may not seem like the gear inspection industry has changed much over the last few years. Shops still primarily use either machines that are dedicated solely to measuring gears, or multiuse Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs). And regardless of which machine they use, software serves as the backbone that supports their many diverse sensors.
Advantages of induction hardening over carburizing, as prepared for the AGMA Metallurgy Committee.
Join Kevin Meister and Troy Kirby from Productive Robotics, for a practical look at moving from hand deburring to cobot-automated in their own facility and many others.

CNC Gear Machine Tools: The Strategic Case for Re-controlling AND Re-building Versus New
Gear Profile Grinding Machine ZP 10 with automatic tool changer from Kapp Niles. The machine concept stands for maximum workpiece quality, flexibility and a long service life. The basic machines are equipped with a dresser, integrated measuring device, balancing unit and comprehensive software. The machines feature generously dimensioned rotary tables with electrical direct drive and large rotary table bores.
Forest City Gear, a manufacturer of fine- and medium-pitch custom gears, announced that Kika Young, president and shareholder, has joined the Greater Rockford Chamber of Commerce (GRCC) board of directors. In addition to her board role, Young will contribute her expertise as a member of both the GRCC’s Talent Committee and the Rockford Area Aerospace Network (RAAN).
This installation marks the second all-metal hot zone vacuum furnace added to the climate-controlled processing area at Solar Atmospheres’ Hermitage, PA facility. The new system significantly expands the company’s capacity to heat treat highly sensitive materials such as precipitation-hardened stainless steels, nickel-chrome-based superalloys, titanium, and niobium.
