27. März 2008 1 / 23 KISSsys Tutorial: Two Stage Planetary Gearbox Using this tutorial This tutorial illustrates how a two stage planetary gearbox can be modelled in KISSsys. Some modelling techniques where special attention and knowledge are required are described in detail. It is recommended that the user completes the first tutorial, KISSsys-Tutorial-001 (modelling of a two stage helical gearbox), before this tutorial is used. The model described here can be further refined. For this, a series of instructions exists, however, their application requires some experience with KISSsys. If questions arise when working through this tutorial, contact the KISSsoft support using the address given above.
