The Neterlands The first day is an introduction to calculations using KISSsoft, followed by theory as well as working practice of shaft calculation, mainly according to DIN743 for static and fatigue strength. Two days are then dedicated to the calculation of gears: Dr. Kissling - member of ISO6336 comitee - will give an overview of the important geometrical characteristics of gears and the fundamentals of strength calculation according to DIN3990, ISO6336 and AGMA standards on the first day. On the second day, he will show how to resolve more complex problems with the standard calculation methods.
