Dwight Smith, president of Cole Mfg. Systems, presents this AGMA Gear Education Webinar Series from 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm Eastern time. The webinar is an introduction to the methodology of analytical gear inspection and the evaluation and interpretation of the resulting data. The application of this information to identify and correct manufacturing errors will be explored. Attendees will gain knowledge in identifying major gear characteristics measured and methods used, evaluating pitch, profile and helix and using inspection data to understand the causes and cures of manufacturing errors. People relatively new to gear manufacturing/inspection, including quality control personnel and manufacturing employees, will achieve a better understanding of how gears are measured and evaluated. Others from quoting, processing and sales also can gain knowledge of inspection reports beyond the "wiggly lines."
