I'm looking into case depth calculations for 9310 gears and and AGMA 926 has this reference for minimum case depth but I do not know what the C with a vertical line through it means. Theres no key for symbols in this standard.
Thanks for the help!
I've been researching this but sometimes you just need an expert to give a straight answer. I'm at a small aerospace design shop where I dont have access to gear mfg, so its difficult to understand some of these inspection methods without the firsthand experience.
If our gear drawings define...
I'm working on a flight controls actuator and since I'm fairly new to the arena I'm not familiar with best practices.
Theres been questions raised that a few of our highly loaded bearings (towards the flight surface output) should have steel sleeves around them because they are in aluminum...
Was hoping to get feedback on pros/cons between different gear design software such as KISSsoft, Romax, MITcalc, PowerGear, etc.
We currently use KISSsoft but its clunky and seems like a beta version of software, training isnt readily available, and seems to default to ISO/DIN standards when we...
I havent been a gear designer for a long time, but I'm following AGMA 2001 and my values are verified by KISSsoft. So because I havent been designing gears for long, I'm not sure how to deal with this situation:
Gear pair is 48 pitch with driver spinning at 1686 RPM worst case for only 4.44...
I'm working on what torque value to call out on our prints but these are not bolts/screws, but thin-walled cylindrical housings. Therefore, I'm not sure the same clamping torque calculation applies. For example, one housing is 15-5PH stainless at 3.875" diameter and the bolt clamping formula...
Hi,
Wondering if anyone can point me to a standard that covers the application of grease on gears. I've looked at AGMA 9005, AGMA 911, MIL-PRF 23827, but they all speak more to composition than installation. I'm looking for best practices for grease coating on gears. Any ideas? Thank you.
Hi. Havent posted on here since college...
I'm working with a lot of stainless steels and our material callout on drawings include "... HEAT TREAT PER AMS-H-6875..." in addition to calling out the H condition using the AMS standard for that specific material such as AMS 5659 for 15-5PH. For...
In DM, I used the "Fill" tool to fill a cavity. But now I'd like to merge the newly filled cavity with the surrounding body. Is this possible? If so, any suggestions? Thanks for reading.
