The new KISSsoft Release 2019 contains numerous new features, including KISSdesign, which provides the user with a tool that allows intuitive concept design on a system level. So, in addition to the elementary components (gear pair, bearing or shaft/bearing system), complete gears can now be designed in a separate module (Module KSD).
KISSsoft provides a number of useful tools for gear manufacturing throughout the design process.
To model the kinematics of transmissions with power splits, which are being used in industrial applications with growing frequency, is now significantly easier using a system function in KISSsys (module SYS). The only data required is the amount of the power split: how much power is to be transferred through the different paths. The software…
SKF and KISSsoft have worked together to create a new interface that makes it easier to develop gear units. When designing machines, engineers can select suitable bearings based on the very latest bearing technologies in the interface. This enables KISSsoft's customers to use these two calculation approaches: the usual ISO calculation, which…
In the 03/2018 release of KISSsys, you have the option of “group-based modeling.” Using it, individual finished assemblies can now be extracted from existing gear designs and then combined with other groups.
