This online seminar provides tools for quick analysis of the torque, speed, and power properties of a planetary gearbox. It is based primarily on VDI 2157 to provide an understanding of different designs.
Target audience
This seminar is intended for engineers and managers who would like an overview of the basic calculation rules and properties of planetary gearsets, and to get a first impression of possible designs. It is also suitable for those with basic knowledge of planetary gears who would like to refresh their understanding of the fundamentals.
Main topics
Analysis of speed, torque, and power according to VDI 2157, Wolf diagrams and Kutzbach plans, efficiency of planetary gearsets
Objectives
The use of Wolf diagrams and the Kutzbach plan helps with a simple analysis of multi-stage and switchable planetary gearboxes as well as the development of new ideas.
The following contents will be demonstrated in the seminar:
Willis equation for determining the speed
Torque calculations
Power flow and efficiency based on simplified assumptions
Examples and application of Wolf diagrams and the Kutzbach plan
Analysis of example gearboxes
