This standard is applicable to enclosed gear drives
wherein the gear tooth designs include spur, helical,
herringbone or double helical, or bevel, in single or
multistage units.
1.1 Limitations
The rating methods and influences identified in this
standard are limited to enclosed drives of single and
multiple stage designs where the pitch line velocities
do not exceed 35 meters per second and pinion
speeds do not exceed 4500 revolutions per minute.
1.2 Overlap
There is aspeed and pitch line velocity overlap in the
scope of this standard and the scope of ANSIIAGMA
6011 -G92. ANWAGMA601 1 -G92 permits designs
down to 25.4 meters per second and pinion speeds
to3600 revolutions per minute. In the area of overlap
in the scope, the standard used is dependent on the
application or unit designed. All parties should be
aware of the standard used and should agree on the
use of that standard.
1.3 Intended use
This standard is not intended to assure performance
of assembled gear drive systems. It is intended for
use by the experienced gear designer capable of
selecting reasonable valuesfor the factors, based on
his knowledge of performance of similar designs and
the effects of such items as lubrication, deflection,
manufacturing tolerances, metallurgy, residual
stress and system dynamics. It is not intended for
use by the engineering public at large.
1.4 Exceptions
This standard does not cover the design and
application of epicyclic drives or gear blank design.
This standard does not cover the rating of gear
drives due to wear or scoring (scuífing) of gear teeth
or components.
This standard does not apply to gear drives that are
covered by other specific AGMA application
standards.
1.5 Annexes
The annexes are for reference only and are not a part
of this standard. The annexes can be used to make a
more detailed analysis of certain rating factors, and a
guide to owner responsibilities.
