GWJ Technology Releases Latest Version of SystemManager
GWJ Technology GmbH presents the new version of its system calculation software SystemManager as an extension of its well-known solutions eAssistant as a web solution and TBK as a classic desktop application. SystemManager is a system calculation for designing and optimizing various types of gear systems, ranging from multi-stage cylindrical gearboxes to power-split transmissions, manual gearboxes, and any types of planetary geartrains and worm and bevel gearboxes. This is a true multishaft system, i.e., the SystemManager is based on a FE multishaft system with gears as nonlinear coupling elements.
2022 AGMA Technical Committee Activity
Thanks to our many hardworking volunteer committee members, 2022 was a productive year for the AGMA Technical Division with the publication of two new and three revised information sheets. Among the publications, the AGMA Bevel Gearing committee revised AGMA 929-C22, Calculation of Bevel Gear Top Land and Guidance on Cutter Edge Radius, which has expanded calculations to anywhere along the face width instead of just the toe, mean, and heel.
