It's running smoothly: transmissions in heavy equipment and machinery trade event "large and special gear" on 15 And 16 November 2010 in the Haus der Technik in Essen
(Business Wire) Essen, 21.09.2010, whether wind turbines, cement mills, crushers, coal planes, bucket, marine propulsion or turbine-generators of energy conversion plants - even the biggest machines can not operate without a gearbox. Especially in the field of wind energy requirements are increasing steadily to larger and more powerful drive systems. This move the complexities of the actual overall dynamic behavior in the calculation and dimensioning of the power train stress and strain at the center. The classic design of the individual machines used elements (gears, bearings, shafts, couplings) under the assumption of steady loads and integration of application factors to take into account dynamic effects just is not enough. Another important topic in the interpretation of such drives is to determine the load distribution in the field of contact of the teeth of spur and planetary gear transmissions.
Under the direction of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Berthold Schlecht, Institute for Machine Elements and Machine Design of the TU Dresden get the seminar participants on 15 and 16 November 2010 in the Haus der Technik in Essen, the basic structure of large drives, and the resulting demands on the main drive train. The possibilities for stress assessments of gears, shafts and bearings in transmissions, taking into account the occurring dynamic loads are presented in detail. To calculate the dynamic loads are discussed in the multi-body simulation with the involvement of elastic structures using finite element method and the possible comparison with measurements. To determine the load distribution in teeth, especially in planetary gear stages, powerful calculation programs and their cost bases and limits are presented. Modern methods for diagnosis of oscillations in drives around the contents of the two-day seminar from.
