This standard applies to the assembly of all bevel gears.

The term bevel gears is used tomean straight, spiral, and hypoid gear designs. If data pertain to one or more but not all, the specific forms are identified.

The standard provides the following:

– A better understanding of the need for correct positioning of bevel gears.

– Information necessary for correct assembly and positioning of bevel gears in their respective housings.

– Information for methods personnel in establishing detailed assembly procedures for specific applications.

– Information for tooling personnel responsible for equipping an assembly department with the tools and gages necessary for proper assembly.

– Instruction to assembly personnel for obtaining tooth contact patterns, for interpreting the tooth contact patterns, and for adjusting the position of the members to change the tooth contact patterns.

This standard applies to the assembly of all bevel gears. While certain design considerations and development techniques are mentioned to clarify different aspects, this standard is not intended as a design guide. It is prepared on the assumption that gears and mountings are designed in accordance with ANSI/AGMA 2005–D03, Design Manual for Bevel Gears.
