Features

KISSsoft

KISSsoft is a software package to perform sizing calculations for machine elements. Gears are the main elements in a transmission. In addition, shafts, bearings, connecting elements, springs, as well as chains/belts can also be calculated. KISSsoft has supplementary modules performing tasks such as tolerance calculations and conversions between different hardness systems.

Gears

Sizing calculations are available for all common gear types (cylindrical, bevel, worming, helical, hypoid and crown gears). For cylindrical gears, the software also works with planetary sets and racks. In addition to calculations according to different standards (ISO, DIN, AGMA, VDI, Klingelnberg), the program also offers a number of design and optimization functions.

Shafts, bearings

Sizing calculations for shafts and bearings are integrated, i.e., a built-in graphic shaft editor uses the defined shaft geometry, supports and loads as a basis for performing sizing calculations for roller and plain bearings, for verifying strength according to DIN or FKM standards, and for calculating bending lines, buckling loads, critical rpms for bending and torsional behavior, tooth profile deformation of shaft-mounted gears, and curves for force, moments and stresses.

Joining elements

In addition to screw and bolt calculation, shaft-hub connections, feather keys, press fit, splines, etc. are also included.

Springs

Relevant DIN methods, including databases on standard springs and materials and, of course, helpful design functions, are available for performing sizing calculations on the five most important types of springs.

Chains / belts

A number of different calculation methods based on manufacturer data are available for belts; sizing calculations for chains are based on DIN standards.

Others

There are some modules devoted to general calculation tasks like tolerances, hardness, hertzian pressure, etc.

CAD interfaces

Interfaces to common CAD programs make it easier to create 2D and 3D drawings of gears, which would otherwise be a very time-consuming process.

Features

KISSsys

A complete system of machine elements can be depicted in KISSsys. KISSsys calculates the power flow and manages links between the different values. For the strength calculation of individual machine elements KISSsys uses calculation modules from KISSsoft; for detailed definition of machine elements the system also relies on dialogs from KISSsoft. Calculation results are available in tabular and graphic form in KISSsys, which provides you with an overview of strength and service life of all elements in your design, at any time.
Thanks to these system-inclusive calculations, KISSsys is at the forefront of technical development in machine design all over the world. System models can be custom-tailored to internal company requirements; this is why KISSsys is already being used successfully by a wide variety of companies, for example by manufacturers of wind turbines, automobiles, by gear motor manufacturers, in precision engineering and in shipbuilding.

Features

GPK is the new standard for industrial gearboxes

KISSsoft launches a new CAE software, the KISSsys based gearbox package GPK. With this, the design engineer finally has the right tool for the sizing, optimization and rating of industrial gearboxes. Instead of working with several, independent calculations, the whole gearbox is modelled and the analysis is performed for all gears, shafts and bearing simultaneously. As expected, the resulting geometry can be exported to CAD systems such as Inventor, SolidWorks, SolidEdge, ProE, Catia via a step file. This allows for closer cooperation between analysis and design, eliminating time consuming and error prone manual data exchange between CAE and CAD software.
Integrated into gearbox package GPK is a cost analysis which allows the design engineer to keep an eye on the final costs even during initial gearbox design. Comprehensive reporting functions ensure that he can document his work quickly and according to the current quality standards. The gearbox package GPK also supports the sales engineer as it permits for re-analysis of an existing gearbox using customer specific data within minutes. This allows the sales engineer to answer technical questions quickly, traceably and precisely.
All calculations used within gearbox package GPK are using the well known and well trusted KISSsoft software and follow the current DIN/ISO/AGMA standards. This ensures that all calculations performed will be readily accepted by both internal and external customers. Currently, multiple stage helical gearboxes and multiple stage bevel-helical gearboxes are available, further types will follow.
