about this spreadsheet.
Given information that is common to both gears in the set:
= 25 degrees Pressure angle
Pd = 6 teeth/in Diametral pitch
Gear type = AGMA full depth Tooth type
Tooth load= HPSTC loading Type of tooth loading
F= 2.00 inches Face width
Wt = 430 lbf Transmitted load
vt = 1,527 ft/min Pitch line velocity
SF = 2.00 Factor of safety
Ko = 1.0 Overload factor
Qv = 6 Quality class of gear set
Ks = 1.0 Size factor
KB = 1.0 Rim thickness factor
YN = 1.0 Stress cycle factor
KT = 1.0 Temperature factor
KR = 1.0 Reliability factor
Given information that may be different for each gear in the set:
Pinion Gear
Ni = 14 17 teeth Number of teeth
Material = Bronze Steel HB200 Material type
grade = ASTMB148 Grade 1 Material grade
Values found from the above information and inserted by the designer:
