Both the pinion and gear are made of steel with a maximum safe static stress of 180 MPa. Assume a safe stress of 40 MPa for the material of the shaft and key. 10. Design a pair of spur gears with stub teeth to transmit 55 kW from a 175 mm pinion running at 2500 r.p.m. to a gear running at 1500 r.p.m. Both the gears are made of steel having B.H.N. 260. Approximate the pitch by means of Lewis equation and then adjust the dimensions to keep within the limits set by the dynamic load and wear equation.
