GUD-04 LOAD DISTRIBUTION IN PLANETARY GEARS UNDER CONSIDERATION OF ALL RELEVANT INFLUENCES(GEAR UNIT DESIGN AND APPLICATIONS)

Abstract

The calculation of gears especially planetary gears can just be carried out by the consideration of influences of the whole drive train and the analysis of all relevant machine elements. In this case the gear is more than the sum of its machine elements. Relevant interactions need to be considered under real conditions. The standardized calculations are decisive for the safe dimensioning of the machine elements with the consideration of realistic load assumptions. But they need to be completed by extended analysis of load distribution, flank pressure, root stress, transmission error and contact temperature.
