: Hi,

: Before you start designing a gear box, you should know the input and output requirements, such as,
: - application, ex: machine tools
: - input and No. of output shafts speeds, power and positions (speed ratio)
: - power to be transmitted
: - allowable space, etc.
: Then you have to decide,
: - type of gear pairs to be used
: - No. of step-downs, or step-ups
: - No. of levels of gears (widthwise)
: - bearing sizes
: - kinametics (gear train)
: - lubrication provision
: - accuracy required
: - development of kinametics (gear train) showing cross-section views
: - check for strengths, life etc
: - check for assy./dis-assy. easiness etc.

: You will have to consider everything depending on the application. It is difficult to list down the steps to be followed.
