Quindos 7 GEAR

Hello forum

I have a cylinder gear to measure.
Can someone provide me the gear manual from the Quindos 7 gear training course in German or English?
Minimal knowledge of gear measurement with Quindos is available, but I would like to read more about it.

Best regards
Michael

  • Everything about the Gear command.

    I have a lot of questions about this?
    For example, what must be indicated on the drawing that must be activated in the profile dialog, Profil with Tip and root modification and in the Helix dialog, Helix with End relief ???
    And how do I get the respective values for it ???
    Then I would like to know the individual field names from the Gear Dialog.
    And how does measuring a toothing with a 3D model work ???

    I have the gear plot in the attached.
    I am not sure if everything was programmed correctly!!!

    There is very little information on the internet about Quindos Gear!
    That's why I'm looking for the training materials for it.

    Or practical examples of the individual gears would also be great.


    Best regards

  • Hello Hribe, I read your post with interest this morning as it's something we hear on a regular basis. It's like the automatic park function on many cars these days, it's there, but you don't have to use it. It's the same with the Quindos GEAR dialogs - if you don't need it, ignore it.

    The features you mentioned (tip modification, end relief) are not called out on the drawing, so don't check the box & don't fill out the dialog.

    To answer your question about the plots, they look plausible, however you should increase the scaling on the profile & flank plot so that you an see the deviations in more detail.

    A bit more run-in & run-out on both the profile & flank would be better as the evaluation range corresponds to the measurement range & gear-guys don't like to see that on the plots.

    Speaking of gear-guys, it would probably make sense for you to do some (non-Quindos) gear training to bring you up to speed on the technology - relying on the metrology software to make quality-related judgements for you is not a place I would like to be.
  • Hello

    Ok thanks for featback.
    The question about tip modification, end relief was mean for future gears, because how I then come to the values is not clear to me.
    Yes of course training on this topic would be useful.
    Unfortunately, my company does not want to invest in this direction at the moment Disappointed.

  • Hi all. In order not to start a new forum , I will continue in this one . Our production measures the gearing of the rack and pinion of the steering gear. We have to buy special software for PS DMIS. This is either PC-DMIS GEAR or QUINDOS. Our gear has a very steep involute. Parameter 26 on the drawing. The seller says that GEAR cannot cope with such teeth and will not cane scaning . And it also cannot change the angle of the probe on the same tooth. But QUINDOS is easy to deal with. The cost differs by a factor of two and a half between these two software. Does anyone have any experience with these measurements. Maybe there is an easier way to measure such teeth?

  • To answer your question at the end, there is no easy way to measure such a gear. Quindos is probably your nly solution.
