Geometric Parameters of Gears are mainly driven by two parameters, 1) tooth bending strength & 2) surface durability (pitting). Gear design software (KISSSOFT / ROMAX) propose options on gear parameters for gear pair with result of tooth bending strength & surface durability. This paper does not describe the Gear design software application for optimization of geometric parameters of the gear tooth. It explains the engineering method for Gears parameter optimization. Without using gear design software, optimization of gear geometric parameters is possible by using the gear parameters of existing gear pair. Geometric parameters of existing gear are derived by span measurement method.
