This comprehensive four-day training course blends gear theory and practical experience. Participants will learn about the KISSsoft interface, cylindrical gear theory and strength calculation methods, using the shaft and bearing module, optimization of cylindrical gear macro and micro geometry, verification in Loaded-Tooth Contact Analysis (LTCA), and an introduction to the new system analysis tool, KISSdesign. This course includes a tour of the Gleason Works Rochester facility to experience practical examples on the shop floor. 

Attendees will gain familiarization with spur, helical, bevel and hypoid gear nomenclature, the use of various cutting methods in Gleason machines as well as the tooling and processes used in gear manufacturing. Topics include gear classification, cutting methods, blank tolerances and configurations, inspection, testing, and workholding. 

Control 2024 (Stuttgart, Germany) offers the most up-to-date technologies from the fields of vision technology, image processing, sensor technology, as well as measuring and test technology and quality assurance. “Measurement, testing, inspection, evaluation, documentation-end-to-end solutions for these functions are required everywhere because more and more data is being captured, analyzed, linked and fed back to the respective systems in order to achieve transparency and consistency. This is why software and intelligent evaluation algorithms are playing an increasingly important role,” explains Fabian Krüger, project manager.

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.

This 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.

IPTEX 2024 (Pune, India) is an important event for all relevant stakeholders in automobile, aerospace, or energy as well as manufacturers, buyers, partners, and consultants.
