Long Service Life Workshop On Gear Metrology

Workshop On Gear Metrology

Length of Course

One day.

Sessions

(Please contact for next available training program on following mail id or .)

This comprehensive Onee day program provides a solid introduction for those new to the gear industry as well as an excellent review for experienced technologists. The Basic Gear Metrology module focuses on the involute helicoid system that is widely used for cylindrical 

gears and splines. Composite and elemental measurement methods are described and contrasted. Categories, causes, and consequences of gear accuracy errors are discussed.The Calibration and Metrology module explores the subject of measurement validity beginning with discussion of important but often overlooked metrology issues. New traceability and calibration concepts are outlined. An introduction to statistical estimation of measurement uncertainty is included.The Gear Accuracy Standards module brings participants up to date with the recent changes in important AGMA and ISO documents.A Spline Measurement Module can also be included in the program.

Training groups are kept small so that individual concerns may be fully addressed

Benefits of the course on Gear Metrology 

1. Identify why gears have failed - 90% of premature failures have excessive geometry errors 

2. Identify the causes of manufacturing errors - we tell you what the results mean and how to correct them

3. Minimise noise from a gear set - poor specification or manufacture causes noise 

4. Increase potential power density - accurate gears transmit more power 

5. Prove your gears were supplied to specification 

6. Reduce premature failure risks 

7. Benchmark your suppliers manufacturing capability 

8. Minimise product through life cost 

9. Increase your competitiveness  

Who should attend?

The course will be of benefit to those with some previous experience and also those who have recently become involved with gearing.
