Wenzel America and Fox Valley Metrology understand the importance of quality and excellence in the manufacturing industry. In this webinar, attendees will hear from the experts on the following subjects:
Advocacy in your career to promote growth and getting that “seat at the table.
Tips to be productive, quality-focused, and intentional at your job.
Important networking and mentoring suggestions that will enhance your industry relationships.
The webinar will be hosted by Rebecca Brinkley, AGMA.
Read MoreThis AGMA live online course examines individual failure modes and the failure scenarios that lead to actual system failure, an essential skill to designing gear/bearing systems that will operate properly for their full design life. In this course, AGMA will define and explain the nature of many gear and bearing failures and discuss and describe various actual failure scenarios. In addition, a detailed primer on bearing technology prefaces the failure scenario discussions. Attendees will gain a better understanding of various types of gears and bearings. Learn about the limitation and capabilities of rolling element bearings and the gears that they support. Grasp an understanding of how to properly apply the best gear-bearing combination to any gearbox from simple to complex.
Read MoreIPTEX 2024 (Pune, India) is an important event for all relevant stakeholders in automobile, aerospace, or energy as well as manufacturers, buyers, partners, and consultants. Focus industries include mechanical power transmission, electrical power transmission, linear motion drives, fluid power and IoT/smart technology. IPTEX will provide a consistent channel of communication to the members of this industry to come together under one roof and participate in technical seminars, share knowledge and expertise with industry leaders and to be a part of discussion on policy codes, standards and challenges faced by the industry.
Read MoreWhile function and rating are important factors in a successful gear design, to be truly optimal and successful, the gear designer must also design the gears to be manufactured and inspected. In this course, therefore, we will address key factors in a wide variety of manufacturing and inspection processes to enable the gear designer to better design optimal gears considering both rating and the necessary manufacturing and inspection processes to produce the gears as designed. We will also help the designer to understand how to interpret inspection data so that they can ensure that the gears meet the design. To be clear, this is not a course in how to operate the various machines. Rather it addresses the design provisions that are required to allow the gears to be optimally manufactured and inspected. The learner will develop a broad understanding of the methods used to manufacture and inspect gears, as well as interpret how the resultant information can be applied and interpreted in the design process.

Read MoreExplore gear grinding processes, machine kinematics and set-up, pitfalls, failures and expectations related to finish ground gearing. Learn definitions of gearing component features, process steps from blanking, through heat treatment to finished part ready to ship. Study aspects of Quality Assurance, Inspection Documentation and corrective actions for measured non-conformances. Understand pre-heat treat, heat treatment and post-heat treatment operations including the hows and whys to produce finished gears that conform and perform to end user expectations.
Read MoreThis course will address both geometry and rating of involute splines of various types. The types of spline joints and their applications will be discussed. Spline configuration variations, including half depth, full depth, and special function designs, will be addressed. Both fixed and flexible spline configurations will be examined in terms of usage and design. Lubrication methods, including grease, oil bath, and flowing oil, as well as coatings appropriate for various spline applications, are examined. Shear and compressive stress rating methods are discussed with analyses methodology presented in both equation and graphical methodology via various rating charts.
Read MoreLearn what is required for the design of an optimum gear set and the importance of the coordinated effort of the gear design engineer, the gear metallurgist, and the bearing system engineer. Investigate gear-related problems, failures and improved processing procedures. Class hours are from 8:00 am - 5:00 pm.
Read MoreLearn and understand fundamentals of gear manufacturing. Acquire knowledge and understanding of gear nomenclature, hobbing and shaping of spur and helical gears, and splines. Learn and understand hobber and shaper machine set-up, as well as gear tooth element inspection.
Read MoreThis course will provide a solid foundation for anyone going into gear inspection. Learn the common, current and basics of the tools and techniques used to measure and inspect gears. Understand the four main categories by which a gear is evaluated and classified.
