Introduction
The GB/T 3480 series constitutes a system for calculating the load capacity of involute cylindrical gears (internal or external teeth), taking into account previous practical experience
The summary and application of new technologies in the future.
The gear fatigue strength data listed in this document may vary widely. This is due to chemical composition fluctuations, material defects, geometrical
Structure, thermal processing (such as bar type, forging-rolling, forging ratio), heat treatment process and residual stress and other factors.
The tables in this document list the main influencing factors of gear strength and the technical requirements for different material quality levels. These factors
The influence of wheel contact fatigue strength and bending fatigue strength is reflected in each figure.
This document relates to the most commonly used gear materials and heat treatment processes, but does not involve special materials, special heat treatment or processing processes. In addition,
This document also does not evaluate the applicability of various materials, special processing or heat treatment processes.
