Basics of Planetary Gear Drives
Analysis of Speed - Torque - Power and Efficiency
Introduction
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, Kutzbach plans
- Efficiency of planetary gearsets
