Forensic Analysis of Gear & Bearing Failures – Useful Tools for Optimizing Gearbox Design


Presented by: AGMA, the AGMA Foundation, Raymond Drago, P.E., & Joseph W. Lenski, Jr., Drive Systems Technology, Inc.

Determining the cause of a failure in a gearbox is like a “who done it” mystery. What caused the failure? The bearings, a gear, the lubrication or a shaft problem? Where do you start, and how can you tell?

This seminar helps gear designers gain a better understanding of various types of gears and bearings. Learn about the limitation and capabilities of rolling element bearings and the gears that they support so you can properly apply the best gear-bearing combination to any gearbox, whether simple or complex.

A certificate will be awarded upon completion of the seminar.
