Gear Design
Gear Design Pro - Gear Design and Rating
This program allows the definition of gear pair geometry and a calculation of their rating according to ISO Standards. Recent changes to ISO6336 in 2006 have been implemented, as well as the supplement in 2007. A 72 page validation document consistent with the examples in the installation will be provided with the purchase of the advanced level of this module.
