The MESYS Shaft Calculation can be extended to shaft systems. This allows the calculation for whole gearboxes considering gears, shafts and bearings.
The shaft system calculation allows:
- Calculation of shaft systems like gearboxes
- Calculation of planetary gear sets
- Connection of shafts by gear pairs (helical, bevel or worm gears)
- Connection of shafts by belts
- Calculation of rotation speeds
- Calculation of load distribution using a coupled FEA beam model
- Interface to programs for gear design:
- GWJ eAssistant
- Dontyne GPS (from version 5)
- Hexagon ZAR1+ (from version 20)
- KISSsoft (from version 03/2013 SP3, module CC1 required in version 03/2014)
- TBK 2014
- Graphics for line load over the width if gears
- Definition of load spectra on system level
- Configurations to support variants in power flow
- Natural frequencies and critical speeds on system level coupled be gear pairs
- Display of mode shapes on system level, 3D animated
- 3D-elastic housings and planet carriers
- 3D-elastic parts with consideration of deformations of bearing rings and gear bodies for cylindrical gears
- REXS-Import/Export for data exchange with other programs
- All features from the basic shaft and bearing calculation as bearing life according ISO/TS 16281 and shaft strength according DIN 743
