Description

This gear calculation module allows a simple calculation of single external and internal cylindrical gears according to DIN 3960, DIN 3961, DIN 3964, DIN 3967, DIN 3977 and DIN 868. External spur and helical gears as well internal gearings are possible to calculate. Profile shift, addendum chamfer and allowances will be taken into consideration. Gear quality and tooth thickness tolerances can be comfortably selected from listboxes.

Different standardised tool basic rack profiles according to ISO 53, DIN 867 and DIN 3972 can be selected or defined individually for the calculation. Protuberance tools with a shifted profile reference line are also supported. A machining allowance per flank can also be defined. Full-depth teeth and stub tooth gears can be calculated as well. Furthermore, the test dimensions for the gearing are determined. For that, the required number of teeth for the span measurement as well as the ball or pin diameter will be determined automatically. Optionally, the values can be defined by the user. In addition, a backward calculation of the tooth thickness allowances from the test dimensions is also possible.

One particular highlight of the calculation module is the representation of the calculated gear tooth form. For this representation, the minimum, mean and maximum allowances for the tooth thicknesses and tip diameters can be selected. The program also gives hints and warnings, for example in terms of gear tolerances which appear in the calculation report depending on the gear quality.

The module includes all typical eAssistant functions, for example the redo and undo function and the creation of a calculation report in HTML and PDF format. Various templates, such as a short or standard report, can be used for the generation of the calculation report.
