With the course “T1 – Basic of bevel gears”, we provide you with an introduction to the world of bevel gears or the transition from cylindrical gears to bevel gears. This introductory course is aimed at all professional groups in planning, development and production who work with bevel gears and is offered in two parts. The first part is designed for professionals with no previous knowledge of bevel gears and is suitable for gear design, gear design, machine planning and purchasing.
The more advanced second part is recommended for new KIMoS users in development and production. This section forms the basis for the design, optimization and production of spiral bevel gears and prepares for the follow-up course “T2 - KIMoS for beginners”.
