    Gearcalc software helps users design maximum-capacity gearsets that have minimum volume and weight.

    Gearcalc software helps users design maximum-capacity gearsets that have minimum volume and weight. Gearcalc is easy to use, prompting users to type in the application, load, material, and heat-treatment data for a gearset. Users can also select profile-shift co-efficients to maximize pitting and wear resistance, scuffing resistance, or bending strength. The software works with the KISSsoft application for gear design, letting users check preliminary designs against AGMA, ISO, and DIN standards. Gearcalc comes stand-alone, or combined with Inventor, Solid Edge, SolidWorks, or Pro/E.
