Gear Weight / Body Optimization
Calculates weight and lightening savings based on outer diameter, face width, bore diameter, and material density.
Gear Weight / Body Optimization
Estimates gear weight from geometry and material density; includes rib/pocketing effect using a lightening factor (typical 0-0.35, maximum 0.6).
Solid (non-lightened) weight14.53 kg
Lightened weight11.62 kg
Savings20.0 %
Volume (solid)0.0019 m3
Applied density7850 kg/m3
Lightening factor0.20
Lightening factor represents removed material ratio via ribs/pockets (0: solid, 0.3: 30% removal). For values above 0.6, run structural analysis. Also verify balancing, welds, or bolt holes for design safety.
