Plastic Gear Design using MITCALC..

08/15/2008 2:11 AM

Im trying to design a set of Plastic spur/helical gear using the software MITCalc, but however the software doesn't have the mat'l data for Nylon 66 or other plastic mat'l. Is there anyone who can help? or at least for the time being provide me with the following mat'l data for Nylon 66:

1) Contact Fatigue Limit (MPa)

2) Bending Fatigue Limit (MPa)

3) Mat'l Hardness (HV)

You may want to find software intended for design of plastic gears; the properties you are requesting are generally more important for metal gearing. Design procedures are different for plastic, as teeth deflect and share loads that would break metal ones. Companies offering plastic resins suitable for gears may offer some help.
