Abstract

This paper reports the results of an optimization study on the effect of major design factors on the length of a two-stage helical gearbox. Five major design factors were investigated in the study including the first stage gear ratio, the coefficient of wheel face width of stages 1 and 2, and the allowable contact stress of stages 1 and 2. A simulation experiment was also designed and accomplished by a computer program. Furthermore, Minitab R19 software was applied to analyze the experimental results. The impact of key design factors on gearbox length was investigated. The optimum values of the parameters to obtain the smallest gearbox length were also proposed.
