Abstract

The aim of this project is to work on automated modelling system for different types of gears with a new way of solving modelling design problems with in the CAD environment by using knowledge based engineering from the conventional design procedures to improve gear design phase in an industry. Computer aided design is an important industrial art extensively used in many applications including automotive, shipbuilding, aerospace industries and many more. Knowledge based engineering (KBE) has become a practical method of visualizing manufacturing cost and enabling product analysis by simulating product development activities in design for manufacturing support tools. Any of the mistake in the design phase may result in to very high losses associated in the manufacturing investments. To reduce the development cost, it may be worthy to focus on the design phase of product development. By using CATIA V5 model of internal gear and external wobble gears have been created and then imported in ANSYS workbench for analysis. Static structural analysis has been conducted for both the gears by using ANSYS .The values of maximum stresses from structural analysis are compared with theoretical calculation. It is observed that 90% time will be reduced by using this automated gear designing and also chance of errors also reduces. A system has been developed to fill in the gap between design engineers and computational experts when analyzing product development process.
