08.12.16: Calculation Modules for Cylindrical Gears and Planetary Gear Trains extended

The new versions offer many new features, including the DIN 58405 standard for fine mechanics as well as ISO 1328 and ANSI/AGMA 2015 in addition to the DIN 3961 standard for gear allowances.

The modules now support not only DIN 3990 and ISO 6336, but also ANSI/AGMA 2101-D04 in order to determine the load capacity. Profile modifications, for example tip relief, are taken into consideration, in particular for scuffing. Furthermore, the cylindrical gear pair module allows users to define the number of tooth meshes. This can then be considered in the calculation of
the load spectrum.

A new input option for the centre distance was also added to the dimensioning function dialog. The calculation module for planetary gear trains also features a new dimensioning function. In addition, the number of teeth of the planets can be automatically determined or defined individually.

All modules provide a function for changing Metric and US Imperial units in the setting menu. The unit can be also changed by clicking the label element of the input field. All settings will be saved to the calculation file. Furthermore, there are alternative entry options for the normal module, either as diametral or circular pitch. The pressure and helix angle can be also entered in degree, minute and second.
