Novikov/Conformal Gearing

This book presents the latest accomplishments in Novikov/conformal gearing as well as high-conformal gearing. It is focused primarily on strength calculation of gear teeth and the manufacturing of gears for Novikov/conformal and high-conformal gearing along with a brief discussion of achievements in the modern theory of gearing. The modern theory of gearing is the foundation of all optimal designs of gears, gear-sets, and transmissions of all known designs, as well as, of all those to be developed in the future. As even a small improvement in efficiency on a single gear can represent a significant cost saving, given the millions of gears used in industry every year, this volume provides the design and manufacturing engineer in invaluable resource.

Explains the key features of Novikov/conformal and high-conformal gearing, many still unclear to even to experts Provides practical recommendations on how the highest possible efficiency of gear transmissions can be attained Outlines future developments in the field of Novikov/conformal and for high-conformal gearing
