Thanks Ron and you are correct. However, I went to the AGMA and they certainly had a long list of references. Can you give me any recommendations of a gear design consultant that would be experienced with non magnetic metals?
Thanks,

Hi,
I need to designing a high strength non-magnetic gear and pinion for a welding application. Here are the specs:
- The gear and pinion will be located in a very high weld field and need to be non-magnetic.
- Gear and pinion need to drive 420ft.lbs of torque at about 12 RPM.
- The area...
Thanks SWComposites for quick response and good answer.
Just out of curiosity, where did you get nu32 = .45 ?
Also, how did you know that G23 = .67*G12?
I have read your previous posts and had seen you answer G23=.67*G12 before. Is that just something proven from experience in the field...
I am doing an FEA analysis with Pro/Engineer Mechanica of a linkage arm that is made out of fiberglass (Generic E-glass/epoxy Unidirectional Prepreg). When assigning the material of the part in Pro Engineer, I need to input the following:
E1, E2, E3, G12, G13, G23, Nu21, Nu31, and Nu32.
Can...
Thanks for the help guys.
The parts have not been finished machined yet.
The parts are the housings of a small prototype 150cc rotory engine and are fairly complex is structure. They will be uniformly bolted and water will run through the cooling passages. There are no evident places that...
My rotary engine housings were cast out of Aluminum A356 and a T6 heat treatment was performed on them (solution heat treated to 1000 deg (Fahrenheit) for 12 hours, quenched in water at 175 deg, precipitation harden at 310 for 2-4 hours). The part was supposed to have a T7 heat treatment...
