function bay and KISSsoft present one simulation software or two toolkits that simulate the dynamic behavior of gearboxes can be improved. With such optimization, designers are meeting today's requirements for reducing Noises and vibrations in gearbox and drive train.

The tool GearKS offers seamless access to Kisssoft contact analysis for straight and helical gears. During the dynamic calculation in recurdyne GearKS determines the forces, moments and stiffnesses relevant for the modeling of gear pairs in each iteration step, based on the proven Weber / Banaschek model. The detailed definition of the gear set can be entered either by reading a Kisssoft file or using the Kisssoft user interface.

Engine and gearbox design energy-efficient and free of charge

With BearingKS, Recurdyn uses the warehouse calculation from Kissssoft. The simulation software is based on the approach of ISO 16281. It determines the contact situation of all rolling elements in each iteration step. With BearingKS, the extensive Kisssoft warehouse database is supplied with the data from tens of thousands of bearings.

Both toolkits are supplied with the software that is required for execution in the Recurdyn environment, so that no external Kisssoft installation is necessary.
