The objective of this paper is to improve the methodology for determining the tooth flank temperature. Two methods are proposed for assessing scuffing risk when applying AGMA 925 for high-speed gears. Both methods provide similar results.
Introduction
The standard profile form in cylindrical
gears is an involute. Involutes are
generated with a trapezoidal rack — the
basis for easy and production-stable
manufacturing (Fig. 1).
