Title
Design and Selection of Components for Enclosed Gear Drives
American Gear Manufacturers Association
Publication Date:
Dec 19, 2008
Scope:
This standard provides an acceptable practice for the design and
selection of components for enclosed gear drives. Fundamental
equations provide for the proper sizing of shafts, keys, and
fasteners based on stated allowable stresses. Other components are
discussed in a manner to provide an awareness of their function or
specific requirements. This standard applies to the following types
of commercial and industrial enclosed gear drives, individually or
in combination: spur, helical, herringbone, bevel and worm.
Exceptions
The equations in this standard are not applicable when gear
drives are subjected to vibratory conditions where there may be
unpredictable fatigue failure.
The procedure for design or selection of the specific gear
components is varied and complex and is beyond the scope of this
standard. Designers must refer to the specific rating or enclosed
drive standards for this aspect of drive design.
Intended use
The equations and values presented provide a general approach to
design. Deviations from the methods and values stated in this
standard may be made when justified by experience, testing, or more
specific analysis. It is intended for use by experienced gear
designers capable of selecting reasonable values based on their
knowledge of the performance of similar designs and the effect of
such items as lubrication, deflection, manufacturing tolerances,
metallurgy, residual stresses, and system dynamics. It is not
intended for use by the engineering public at large.
