Introduction to Bevel Gears

Description

Date: TBC

Time: 10am - 12:30pm

Platform: TEAMS

Tutor: Fabian Sprenger (ZF), Richard Wiles (Leonardo Helicopters)

Fee: Non Member £350* / BGA Member Free

Please note this course is over 2 sessions. You will need to attend both sessions to complete the training.

Bevel gears play a crucial role in mechanical systems by enabling power and motion transfer between shafts that are not parallel. Even though they are fundamental components, the details of bevel gear transmission can be challenging to grasp, even for experienced engineers. This upcoming training session, spearheaded by experts Richard Wiles and Fabian Sprenger, offers a unique chance to explore the fascinating world of bevel gears.

This course introduces bevel gears from both a design and manufacturing perspective, covering all major topics. The tutors have many years of experience in the industry and sessions are delivered ‘live’ to enable attendees to interact and to ask questions. Delegates must complete several short quizzes throughout the 2 sessions and will receive a full set of course notes and a certificate on completion

Overview of the Course:

Day 1

Types and Applications

Fundamentals of Geometry

Bevel Gear Design

Calculation of Load Capacity

Failure mechanisms

Day 2

Tooth Contact Analysis

Production Method

Manufacturing Data

Measurement & Checking

Learning Outcomes

Attendees will attain a broad understanding of bevel gears at an introductory level. This is ideal for those needing an insight into the subject or those who wish to go on and study at a more specialist level.

Who should attend

Anyone who already has a basic knowledge of gear geometry and manufacturing methods and wishes to expand this knowledge applied to bevel gears. Suitable for engineers joining the bevel gear industry or managers / non-technical people who require a basic knowledge of the subject.
