Gear Design
- Fundamentals of gear design and appreciation of involute system are essential knowledge for those in gearing.
- Clear explanations are needed.
- Basic understanding of gear geometry and design procedures is the course's objective.
- Gear load capacity and design standards are emphasized in the course content.
- Course benefits those with experience or new to gearing.
- Participants need to bring their scientific calculators.
Overview
Gear Design Training aims to provide essential knowledge on gear design fundamentals, focusing on the involute system's flexibility. The course covers gear geometry, design procedures, manufacturing, metrology, and tolerancing. It also addresses gear load capacity, lubrication, measurement, noise, and failures. Suitable for individuals with prior experience or new to gearing, the course includes lectures, tutorials, and practical examples. Participants are required to bring scientific calculators. Gear Design Training is a 5-day course offered in various locations in the UK and internationally.

Course overview
The fundamentals of gear design and an appreciation of the flexibility of the involute system with its ability to accommodate arbitrary centre distance and ratio using only standard tooth forms are essential knowledge for those concerned with gearing. As this is still less widely understood than might be expected, even by some already in the industry and the topics are neglected in much engineering education, there is a continuing need for a specialist post-experience course giving clear explanations
Course objectives
This course is intended to give a basic understanding of gear geometry and design procedures. A brief introduction to manufacture is included, as is metrology and tolerancing. The lectures will be reinforced by classroom tutorials.
Gear load capacity will be considered mainly by reference to existing design standards including ISO 6336, and gauging dimensions will also reference British and International Standards.
Course content
The following topics are included:
- Geometry of the Involute Tooth Form and its appreciation to Parallel Axis Gearing
- Geometric Design of Spur and Helical Gears
- Tutorial Examples on Gear Load capacity
- Tutorial Examples on Gear Design
- Gear Lubrication
- Gear Measurement and Gauging Dimensions
- Gear Noise
- Gear Failures
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.
Participants will need to bring their own scientific calculators.
Gear Design Training Inverness, Aberdeen, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Dunfermline and other sites throughout the UK including onsite closed company courses are available.
Gear Design Training Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, India, Ghana and Nigeria is also available.
