The permitted material properties for bending (sat) and pitting (sac) specified in AGMA 6015 for
the same material are different from the properties given in AGMA 2001. The values must be
defined by the user in accordance with Table 3 (sac) and Table 4 (sat) in AGMA 6015 and then
entered in the program (set material to "Own Input")!
AGMA 6015 provides conditions for "Service factors" in Annex C. The conditions are for
information purposes only (not binding) and must be discussed and agreed with the customer.
Enter the coefficients by selecting "Module specific settings" > "Required safeties" and then
clicking "Service factors" > "Service factors for AGMA".
▪ 14. GOST-21354-87
Calculation according to the Russian guideline (latest edition, 1987). Take the following notes
into account, (see chapter 14.2.1.2, GOST-21354-87).
▪ 15. Plastic as defined in Niemann
Please refer to [5] and Table 13.3 to see the differences.
▪ 16. Plastic as defined in VDI 2545 (YF, Method B) (thermoplastic materials used in gears). This
method has been withdrawn, and replaced by the new method, according to VDI 2736. This
regulation defines how calculations are performed on gears made of plastic or combinations of
plastic and steel. (see chapter 14.2.1.3, Plastics according to Niemann, VDI 2545 or VDI 2736).
▪ 17. Plastic as defined in VDI 2545 (YF, method C).
In this calculation method, the tooth form factor Y F is calculated according to Method C.
▪ 18. Plastic as defined in VDI 2545-modified (YF, method B).
This method was recommended for use by KISSsoft before VDI 2736 was published. VDI 2736
contains all the modifications recommended according to Tables 13.3 and 13.4. This method is
recommended for plastics with normal toothing. Transverse contact ratio εα< 1.9. See Table 14.4
for the differences between VDI und VDI-modified.
▪ 19. Plastic in accordance with VDI 2545-modified (YF, method C).
This method is recommended for plastics with deep tooth forms. Transverse contact ratio εα<
